Disappointed
I played this course before and never experienced this situation before. To begin with the course was aerated the green played slow. The ranger on the corse was rude and unprofessional after I spoke with him regarding the foursome in front of me taking to much time and each player was playing 2 balls and chatting. And there were no other group in front of them. I asked the ranger if my twosome can play ahead he said no and the group can play 2 balls. It took 5.5 hours to finish 18 holes a very frustrating situation. And we never saw the ranger again!

Hello, thank you for taking the time to review us, Golden Hills Country Club, in the Lexington, South Carolina area. We're very sorry to hear you may not have had the best recent customer experience with us due to the pace of play, and we greatly appreciate your feedback regarding the rangers so we may work towards any necessary improvements. We also appreciate your dedication to playing our course over the years and hope we can continue to provide you with a valuable golf experience. Thank you for golfing with us, and we hope to see you again soon.
Course was in terrible shape.
Not worth the money. No breakfast or coffee available for a morning tee time. Would not go back. Clubhouse staff was friendly. No ranger on the course in the afternoon. Five plus hour round in the afternoon. No grass in the fairways or tees.

These greens man
Just brutal pin positions on hard slopes. Very challenging but greens and pin positions seem gimmicky.

Very challenging course
I read reviews before playing about rude staff well they must not be there now they were all super friendly and accommodating. The course is not long but don’t let that fool you it is very tight in places and the greens which were receptive were the fastest I have ever played. If you have not played in a while do not come here it will eat you alive. This is a must play for any skilled golfer very fun course.
