Deer Valley will be officially unveiling the newest addition to Deer Valley Lodge & Golf- The Valley Course. The new course is a par 35 with three par 3's, two par 5's, and four par 4's. The first four holes lie in the valley and the other five holes will be adjacent to the Ridge Course.
While still young and growing in, many players have experienced The Valley 9 and agree on two things: Accuracy is a must and the views are incredible!
The Valley Course features very gently rolling greens, tighter fairways, and long grass hazard areas on every hole
If you would like to play The
Valley Nine, please inquire at check-in.

Valley #2 Tee Valley # 2 Green
HOLE 2- A beautiful, elevated short par 3 requiring a tee shot entirely over water. No where to bail out so take it at the center of the green with a little less club.
Valley #1 Forward Tee Valley #1 Green
HOLE 1- A double dog-leg par 5 running through the bottom of the valley. A straight tee shot and a second shot aimed just right of the active windmill will leave you a short iron into a large green which has the back third surrounded by water.
HOLE 3- What a view! Well over 125 ft drop from tee to fairway and trees running along both sides makes this tough and beautiful par 4 visually intimidating. A 3-wood or rescue club off the tee for accuracy is the play. An accurate tee shot will leave you a short to mid iron to this elevated 2 tiered green. There is a drop area at the start of the fairway for shots not making the fairway.
Valley #4 Green
HOLE 4- Another great par 3 with hazards on 3 sides. The only place to miss this green is short, and pay special attention to the trees as wind whipping through the valley will affect your golf ball.
Valley #5 In Front of Tees Valley #5 Approach
HOLE 5- The first of the drivable par 4’s on the Valley 9, but it is no pushover. The smart play is to hit a tee shot 200 yds between the 2 fairway bunkers. With driver you must hit it directly at the center of the green and keep it high and straight.
Valley #6 to Tee Valley 6 Green Toward Valley #3
HOLE 6- Uphill par 3 with a postage stamp green. Distance control is the key, if you miss this green it will be a challenging up and down with an uphill lie
Valley #7 Green From Valley #5
HOLE 7- Straight away par 4 with a long and narrow green. Keep your tee shot between the fairway bunkers, if you don’t you will likely end up in the long grass hazard that lines both sides of this fairway.
Valley #8 Green Looking Back
(pic taken 5/2009)
HOLE 8- A challenging par 5 that plays much longer than the posted yardage. Don’t expect much roll on your uphill tee shot, but it must be kept to the right of the fairway bunker. Long grass hazards line both sides of this hole and the green is 40 yards from front to back, pay attention to flag depth on your approach.
Valley #9 Green
HOLE 9- A perfect risk/reward finishing hole. The safe play is to hit it 200 yards off the tee between the tree on the left and the tree on the right. Want to drive the green? Then take it directly over the tree on the left and hit it long and straight, as there is no bailout if you hit your driver. Don’t be long, there is no recovery.
