Don’t let the drive fool (or deter) you!!!!

Hidden Valley Golf Links in Clever, MO is miles deep in the middle of farm country. As I was driving down the narrow 2-lane gravel road towards the course, I assumed that the course would be in ill repair and in need of a lot of TLC. I did not believe that a small rural population could support and sustain a quality 9-hole, much less an 18-hole, course. Boy, was I wrong! Hidden Valley Golf Links is like a mirage in a valley surrounded by huge Ozark hills. The course is beautifully maintained and groomed. There are many opportunities to find trouble in one of the many bunkers, water hazards, OB, etc. The greens are in great condition and the tee boxes are outstanding. One of the owners, Rob Alberty, could not have been more hospitable and welcoming. To promote faster play the course did something I have never seen, all of the tees markers are black. This encourages players to play from the tees appropriate to their skill level without the stigma of playing from the red or green tees. If you are ever 20 miles southwest of Springfield, MO I would recommend that you play Hidden Valley Links. Nice course, nicer people.
