Hidden Valley Golf Course

Hidden Valley Golf Course measures 6,800 yards across relatively flat Midlands terrain in Gaston, southwest of Columbia. The par 72 layout runs through pine forests with wide fairways that give players room off the tee. Ponds and small creeks create water hazards on several holes, and the sandy soil provides good drainage that keeps the course playable after heavy rain.

The course operates at economy pricing and has a driving range, making it one of the more affordable full-length options in the greater Columbia metro area. Gaston is a small community in Lexington County between Columbia and the Lake Murray dam. Hidden Valley draws a mix of retirees, local regulars, and weekday players who prefer the quiet setting and lower price point compared to courses closer to the city center.
