Settler's Hill Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Settler's Hill Golf Course sprawls across a diverse landscape that ranges from windswept highlands to mature woodlands. The course actually sits on the site of a former landfill but you would never be able to tell with its rolling topography that has become its signature characteristic. When playing, you'll be transported from the Scottish highlands to the forests of northern Michigan without even having to leave Chicagoland. Links-style and parkland holes are interspersed with water to create a test of your skills you won't soon forget. The greens have their interesting quirks and they are framed with deep bunkers and the rolling fairways demand accuracy. Besides the challenging round and affordable rates, Settler's Hill Golf Course's west-central location in Batavia near the Fox River also makes it a popular choice for meeting friends for a round.

Work in progress?
The only apparent change from last year's "under construction" vibe is they parked a concession trailer at the turn (closed, of course). The drainage remains 'idiosyncratic'. Hillsides are running water while bottom lands are green and firm. It's just not as good an experience as before the "improvements".
Course conditions were poor. No drainage. Greens and fairways in poor condition. Such a shame because course has so much character.
Greens OK. Bunkers good. Fairways Horrible.
This is a course managed by Golf Visions. From the looks of it, this course is about to b shut down, Will not recommend this course to any golfer
When it matures
Fairways were kind of thin from the remodel. Positive changes but wished they would have kept the par three. I think it was 16. It was a hole I liked. Great elevation. Access to drinks/food on course limited but I believe they are building a clu house
This course is beautiful and well maintained.
This golf course is a nice and beautiful, only issue is the pace of the play. It takes about 5 hours to finish the game.
They have practically murdered this course!
Once a decent track, this course has fallen victim to neglect and mismanagement. The greens are in just OK condition. The bunkers are good. But the tee-off areas and the fairways are in AWFUL conditions. The ground is hard, divots from months ago are still there. There is no glimpse of the new clubhouse that was promised. Multiple reviews I wrote have not made any tangible results. What a tragedy!
Good Course
Enjoyed playing this course and it was in
good condition.
