Cliffs Valley was once a working cattle farm!
When golf architect Ben Wright designed the Valley golf course, he worked to preserve the natural character of the land, following its rolling terrain rather than extensively reshaping it.
The course officially opened in 1995, and the grand opening was quite an occasion. On October 2, 1995, PGA Tour champions Paul Azinger, Jim Colbert, Bob Murphy, and Jay Haas played an inaugural exhibition round before a crowd of approximately 3,000 people. And what a way to begin! Paul Azinger eagled the very first hole!
More than 30 years later, much of the natural beauty Ben Wright sought to preserve is still part of what makes our Valley such a special place to call home.
