Valley View has 27 holes, so it's always fairly easy to get a tee time. The course is located just 5 minutes from downtown Akron, so it's easy to get to and it's some of the most scenic property for a course in the area, as the Cuyahoga River runs through the course. It also features two large Indian burial mounds, several small lakes, elevation changes and undulating greens. I've brought many out-of-town visitors there and they love the beauty of the course.
Would travel: 10-20 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
