LPGA International - Hills Course

Great course, greens and staff - bring your "A" Game and a lot of balls just in case lol

Obviously a great golf course.
I’ve played it twice a year for the last 10 years. The course was carved through Forrest’s and wetlands. You never saw any other golfers.
It was spectacular. Now they are building houses everywhere.
I get the whole make some money thing but this is just another typical Florida course. That being said I’ll play it again as the greens are very good.

This is the more challenging of the two courses at LPGA International. It was in very good shape that the pace of play was great also early in the morning. Greens rolled true and were in excellent shape. Position golf course where driver may not be the play off the tee all the time. A good test.

Course was in pristine condition and is challenging. Pace of play over the first 9 was excellent, but at hole 10 there was suddenly an extra flight that caused at least 30 minutes extra time. o ranger to correct that,

Played all 18 holes and never saw a beverage cart girl?

New greens are good size however they are compacted and hard to stick a ball on it. They are rolling a little slow. All in all, will be very nice later in the year!

This course is quickly becoming one of our favorites! Fairways have grass, greens are true and the sand traps have good sand. We're greeted by friendly people. The food and service from the waitress and bar was welcoming.. The atmosphere on the patio after a match was soothing. What's not to like? Great golf, great atmosphere, great company and looking out at the Jones course afterwards is non=comparable!

We have played the Jones Course several times and decided to try the Hills Course. Pleasantly surprised! Other than the scenery destroyed by new development, this is a hidden gem. The course is in good shape. Loved the greens. They rolled true and were not too fast. Sand traps held water after a weekend of rain. Otherwise they looked sandy enough to get out of with ease. The fairways were narrower which made this course more of a challenge than the Jones course. Also it is more of a links course with several holes driving over areas of grasses. After our round we have decided we like the Hills course better than the Jones course (which is saying something).

Your starters are great, friendly and work hard to maintain pace of play!

Right out of the gate, realized some things were missing. Very little ‘staging area’ signage. No one in bag drop area to answer questions like… where is the range? Will a starter meet me/ pair me up … no starter ever!?! Never saw a single ranger… didn’t see the cart girl until we were on 16…!Pro shop was ( apparently) closed at 5 when we finished!?… wanted to get a shirt or hat… never saw a ball washer… home construction area was very distracting, I realize it’s unavoidable, but might be worth a $10+-
Consideration.?? Nowhere to get anything “ at the turn”??
Loved the greens. I guess it’s supply and demand that gets you >$100.. but I was mildly disappointed. I sponsored the Lady Keystone in Hershey in the 90’s.

Overall good experience. Course in good shape. Greens a little slow but roled true and well. Only real negative is the carts are in horrible shape. Often braking down and in poor condition. One would think for the premium the course demands its carts would be newer and in better condition.
