Always a Great Round

Hylands has the friendliest staff you'll find at any course anywhere. But they also take great pride in having a wonderful, fun course. Parkland style with some really tough holes at the outset, and some really tough greens on the back. As golf continues to get more and more expensive this course is an incredible value. I recommend to anyone in Indiana, and if you are traveling on I-70 between Indianapolis and Dayton.

Hidden Gem

Honestly the best overall golf course experience we have had in Indiana. Staff friendly from Pro, snack bar and cart return. Excellent rates for junior golfers. Big supporters of junior golfers which you don't often get at a course. Course is one of the nicest we have played in the state. Fairway and greens in great shape. Excellent design every hole has a different feel and green complexes are spectacular. Been wanting to play this course for while and glad we did. We will definitely be back.

Best Bang For You Buck In Indy Area!!!!!!

This course was in excellent shape especially for the amount of recent rain we have had. Lots of blind shots and tight holes. Greens are in great shape as well as the fairways. The only thing that I can knock about this course is that the putting green was no where close to the same speed (way slower) as the greens on the course. Will definitely be back in the future!

She's BACK!!!

I played hylands earlier in the year, and it was in pretty poor shape with all the water damage. We played it again yesterday, and Tom and the staff have worked their butts off to get her back into shape. Royal Hylands is a fun layout and the greens seems to be trickier every time I play them. Lots of subtle break in the especially when above the hole. The sand was really fluffy and the rough was well maintained. Minimal water damage to report. We played the gold tees yesterday, and i have to admit it is a much tighter course from up there especially on the front.

The construction on 70 would be the only thing detouring me from playing here. Hopefully that finishes up soon, so I can make the trip again!

Almost Perfect

Minor fairway issues on a couple of fairways due to excess recent rain. Everything else was excellent as usual. Great course.

Rained out

Royal Hylands is always a great course. Unfortunately, we got rained out after 5 holes. GolfNow.com, however, refunded me for the holes we couldn't play. I couldn't be happier with their cooperation.

Almost perfect

The course was again in excellent condition. Although there were a few sand traps that I'd rate at about 8 out of ten. The only real problem was a foursome in front of us that were extremely slow. They didn't have the curtesy to invite us to play thru. So we went around them and only played 17 holes. That was obviously not the fault of the course.
