Not a blade of grass out of place! Tiger Woods did a great job with making Payne’s Valley fun to play with amazing views. The staff here were all great. If you are looking for a golf trip destination, Big Cedar Golf has to be on your bucket list.
Amazing and better in person than any other course in the world
For ~half the price of PV, Buffalo Ridge is just as good condition, and has a much prettier setting. Based on that it is not worth the price. But, Payne’s Valley is gorgeous and luxurious. The 19th hole is great. Condition of the course is essentially immaculate. Based on how much time I spent in sand traps, my opinion is that the slope should be higher. But overall I’d say “Johnny has done it again” and would absolutely love to come back.

Amazing course. Best I’ve ever played on. Played a great round. Everything was in perfect conditions. The 19th hole is as amazing as expected.
