Payne's Valley Golf Course offers a world-class, 5-star golf experience. The championship course is stunning, with an amazing layout, dramatic scenery, and unforgettable views from each hole. It features wide fairways and pristine, perfect greens, capped off by the incredible world-famous 19th "bonus hole," an island green carved into the cliffs. The entire environment is beautiful and exceptional. Customer service is outstanding, amazing, and out of this world, with an accommodating and welcoming staff that goes above and beyond. The registration area is a rustic country house, and the overall hospitality is highly noted. The course conditions are immaculate, remaining in good shape even during winter. As a premier golf destination, the experience is phenomenal and creates a lifetime of memories. However, the cost to play is very high, exceeding $400, which some find shocking. Nevertheless, it is consistently praised as one of the best public courses, with an exceptional layout, service, and breathtaking design.
A dream come true. Don't matter what time of year you go, just go.
