About

Love the game. Live, eat and sleep golf. At the range 1 day a week and play 1-2 day a week.Organize a Saturday morning golf group of 24 golfers. Book 4 tee times 16 spots Saturday morning and fill it first reply first confirmed until all spots are full. I also organize a 4 day 6 round Golf weekend in Orondo, Washington. This year we are 16 golfers. My game comes and goes.
Loving the game!

WOW! Amazing Course Amazing Views

WOW! What an experience. The course was in amazing condition in the heat of the summer. Right from your arrival you will feel the quality of this experience. Reception and practice waiting to make you feel appreciated.
At 6158 yards Par 70 was a significant challenge for me an 18.2 Handicapper. The fairways are generous with strategically located bunkers and grass bunkers forcing a plan for every shot.
I think that golfers at any level should enjoy the Golf experience they offer at Mission Hills.

End of Season so compromised when I Played

It was the end of the season and they are getting ready to seed the course so was some burnt areas. They were in Temporary facilities so also compromised.
Wide open fairways. Very playable for a mid to high handicap golfer.

Long but Fair Course

Course is long for a mid to high handicap player. Par 71 6,504 yards from the White Tees with 4 par 4's over 400 yards. Play the long 4's like a 5 and work for a good approach/putt to get your par. Be happy to walk off with a bogie on the longer ones ((427/431/440).
Greens are very puttable (if that is a word).

Great Course Very challenging on windy days

Reasonable length for mid handicap golfers. Not sure high handicappers would enjoy it. A golfers course. Excellent facility and people.
They were starting preparation for the new season so the course conditions were compromised this round but from past rounds can say has been in excellent shape. Tough greens but very puttable. Balls rolls true.
