Highly recommend playing at Green Valley 18 hole golf course. It is well maintained and in great shape. I play a lot of golf and really enjoyed my first round at Green Valley! It was recommended to me by a friend so we stopped in after cancelling our tee times at 3 other courses to play here. Carts are available and players are allowed to walk. Had no delays playing and Pcr of play was perfect. They have full facilities club house, pro shop, restrooms, food and beverage cart that roams the course. Also a practice putting green and driving range which is hard to find in Rhode Island. Range balls are $5 for small bucket and $10 for large. I highly recommend playing here if you are in the area. Mike in the pro shop was also very nice! This full 18 hole course has plenty of large challenging greens for you to enjoy.

One of the most enjoyable golfing experiences in RI. A walkers delight, this championship layout has sufficient subtlety to make you want to return often. Practice green, driving range, above average restaurant/bar, and friendly staff will leave you thinking your green fee was too low. The overall experience has led me to return dozens of times over the past 17 years.

My favorite golf course in the area! Miles better than Jamestown golf course in every measurable objective. The wait is always manageable, even in the summertime when the vast hoards of humanity descend upon Newport, and the rest of Aquidneck Island -- during this time, you can call for a time. Additionally, they have an incredible restaurant and bar, as opposed to the typical snack bars you'll encounter at most golf courses. The course itself is also gorgeous with a few bridges and scenic vista's. Finally, the course is pristine and meticulously maintained.

Online photos must’ve been taken 15 years ago. My family stopped by for 9 holes and some lunch with high interest in joining a club as we recently moved to Newport. First impression appears to be an abandoned building, we drove to the side to find that’s where people enter/exit from conveniently by the dumpsters. A lot of misplaced “junk” everywhere, not well kept at all, it had a awkward biker bar but wear your polo vibe. I am surprised it is considered a country club. Unsubscribe.
