Tee box, Green, General
Very clean and well prepared condition.
Pretty hard green. Very challenging course for first timer.
Questionable hole locations
Course was in great shape as usual. Course was kind of empty due to rain earlier in the day which didn’t bother me. Only issue continues to be some questionable hole locations. The USGA recommends hole locations no fewer than 5 paces from the collar. However some pin placements did not meet this guidance. Especially No. 16 where the pin was 3 paces from the edge or only 9 feet. I was pinhigh left by about 20 feet to an extreme back right hole location and couldn’t even put directly at the hole. The other option would be to chip which I’m sure the superintendent would not like. I don’t expect gimme pins but even the PGA doesn’t set pins like what I saw on 16.

Not disappointed
Third time to play and heard the course was in great shape, and despite the weather, it was a great round. Greens rolled well and fairways were nice. Some tee boxes needed a little love though.
Weekends are slow and I was paired with some high handicappers, but they were great to play with. Worth a try for sure.

Great Course
Great course...it's a Donald Ross, what else is there to say?? In perfect shape from tee to green. Greens run true & fast....flawless condition. Great sand in the bunkers & consistent throughout the course. Honestly cant find a negative thing to say about the playability of this course!! I only wish this course was closer, but will continue to drive the 90 minutes to get here a couple times a season. Simply, love this course....just wish they offered cocktails, instead of just beer, for after the round!!!
Thanks so much for the great review, frankmitchell. We look forward to welcoming you back to our course soon. Thanks for choosing Forest Hills Golf Club.
My Own Personal Augusta National
I love this course. It's the right amount of challenging for me. Aesthetically amazing. Never have a bad time here (even when the scorecard says otherwise).
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Forest Hills Golf Club.
Great course
One of the best if not the best public courses in the CSRA. Friendly staff. Course is always in great shape.
Thank you for your review, Golf985. We will pass along your positive experience to our team at Forest Hills Golf Club. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Really Fast Greens
Greens were extremely fast. Because of the speed on the greens it made putting difficult. Pace of play was slow. Overall good course, just give the player an opportunity to make a putt.
Hi, u5728838! Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope to see you back at Forest Hills Golf Club!
Unfair setup, slow play
Today the greens were so fast they were almost unputtable for the average player. Had to be stimping 13-14. On top of that the hole locations were all tucked in corners. The rough was so thick you ran the risk of losing your ball unless you were on top of it. And the ridiculous sawgrass off the 9th tee has to go. All it does is gobble up pulled tee shots and lead to slow play. No wonder why it took 2 1/2 hrs to play the front nine as a threesome.

Nice
Augusta-type greens. We played as a 3 some behind 5 groups on #1 tee. We had to semi-hustle to keep up withe pace of play. 3 hours and 55 minutes. I love it! Extremely reasonable snack bar and beer prices.
