The Valley course at Emerald Hills Golf & Country Club occupies rolling terrain in Stouffville, a community northeast of Toronto in York Region. Designed by Rene Muylaert and opened in the early 1990s, the layout takes advantage of natural elevation changes and wooded corridors characteristic of the Oak Ridges Moraine, the geological formation that shapes much of this area's topography. The course shares the property with a second eighteen holes, the Highlands, giving the club a thirty-six-hole facility that serves the growing communities north of the Greater Toronto Area. The routing moves through mature hardwood forests and across open meadow areas, with several holes playing along or across valleys that give the course its name. Water features appear on multiple holes, and the design incorporates both strategic bunkering and natural hazards. The layout requires course management rather than pure length, with doglegs and elevation changes influencing club selection and approach angles. Emerald Hills operates as a semi-private facility, offering both membership and daily-fee access depending on the season and day of the week. The club maintains practice facilities and a clubhouse that serves both courses. The Valley course, along with its companion layout, provides golf in a setting that balances accessibility for the regional market with the natural landscape features of the moraine country north of Toronto.
