Blue Hills Golf Course
Played On 07/23/2023Best Public Course in Roanoke Vicinity
This golf course is my favorite in the Valley. I consider it my home course. It is always in great condition and the staff and accommodations are generally excellent. My only complaint is the slow pace of play on the course. This occurs more often than not. It would help if they would utilize a Marshall from time to time to encourage pace of play. Hitting 2 balls off the first tee and spending an excessive amount of time on the greens is something I see on a regular basis. Spending 4 and 1/2 plus hours to play here is ridiculous

Played On 03/11/2022Great Golf Course Extremely Slow Play
I consider this my home course because I play most of my golf here. It is the most well maintained public golf course in the surrounding area. My only complaint is that most of the time you need in excess of 4 and 1/2 hours to play. Its the only course where play backs up. Usually the result of group members hitting more than one ball and groups gathered on the tee measuring putts and taking so much time like they are betting their home making the putt.
Starts usually on the first hole where a lot of people hit two or three balls off the tee. Wish they would have a Marshall observing play and enforcing the rules posted about play. Review what is meant by ready golf to the guys that think they are the only ones out there. A foursome can easily plat this course in under 4 hours and not feel rushed if ready golf was observed.

Played On 05/20/2021Course Needs Supervision
COVID restrictions still in place which makes no sense because masking restrictions eased and vaccines plentiful. No bunker rakes no ball washers and holes still contain ball pvc rings. Play is ridiculously slow and no Marshall monitoring to keep thing moving. Course is in good condition so if you have 5 hours available I recommend this course. Otherwise there are more professional run golf courses available to play in reasonable amount of tim

Played On 05/03/2018Great First Time Visit
Played this course with my son for the first time although I live in the area. Scenic views and great course conditions made for a very enjoyable day. Look forward to returning soon
Thank you for your 4 star review! We appreciate the compliments on our condition and our staff.
We do take pace of play seriously, but agree we can always do better. We switched to a 9 minute tee time interval this year to improve pace and golf course flow. Our pace that day for the hole day was 4 hours and 6 minutes, but I apologize it took longer for you that day.
We appreciate your business and your review!
Please feel free to contact me in the golf shop if you want to discuss further
Sincerely
John Steffen
