This updates my previous review from 2010. Our group of travelling seniors played here 9-11-12 for $25 with the Tee Time book, a fair price. Course is in very good shape, except for the greens and bunkers. Greens had been aerated about two weeks earlier, and were not fully healed (we were told they were OK when we made the tee times). In addition, several had burned patches, along the edges, particularly. Did not materially affect play, but an annoyance. Bunkers were VERY firm and wet: no puddles, but sand was quite sticky. Otherwise, good conditions. Staff was congenial, as always, and the remodeled lounge/bar, upstairs in the clubhouse, is a huge improvement from the old days. Bar staff was especially attentive. Our group plays Quail Valley about once a quarter, year-round, and is always pleased with the experience. We recommend.
Would travel: 20-30 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Average course for the area, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
