Greens in rough shape.

I play here only when I can get a deal. Many of the greens were damaged by what looked like choppy mower blades. Very bumpy and uneven scalped ground every 6 to 7 inches in a repeating pattern. Lots of play makes for tough conditions on the course.

Looks Pretty, Long Round

Green and no drought this year.
Kind of beat up from use and needs some attention to upkeep.
Rack rate is very pricey.
Very slow play.

Average to above conditions.

Was in pretty good shape. Greens a bit slow. Some clover and weeds growing about. As usual, dodging elk drops in the fairways.

Course in Great Shape

Was hot out. Starting to get dry outside the fairways, greens, and watering areas. Traps had sand, but some hard bottoms. Greens were very fast. Good looking conditions out there.

Course in Good Condition

Staff not very friendly regarding a change in fees. I booked a single Hot Deal and was forced to pay for an extra 1/2 cart fee to ride by myself when checking in. What kind of baloney is that? How is it charged for only 1/2 cart at booking?

Early Morning Nine

Average conditions.
Fairways and tee boxes in reasonable shape but grass was long. A few weed areas getting under control.
Greens were a little hairy, slow, humpy and bumpy rolls, and a few damage patches here and there.
Traps were wet as it had rained the day before.
Mostly wide holes with a few tight shots.
No dog legs or hole movement, all pretty straight away. Even with elevation changes there aren't many blind shots.
Natural areas of rough, trees, tall grasses, and plenty of rocks.

Greens weren't super quick and still difficult.
Not many burnt spots in the fairways and mowed.
Tee boxes reasonable, some had been sanded.
Bunkers had sand in them, above average condition and groomed.

Gotta Play Here

Great conditions and gorgeous views ♥️
Everything was cut well for the weekend.
Fast greens with undulations were tough.
The Hills make for natural rolls and shapes in the fairways.
Sand traps were groomed with minimal sand.
I will play here every chance I get, well worth the price and everything the Hills offers for challenging golf.

Requires Accuracy and Placement

A links type course running through the woods and hills. Never an adjacent hole to hit over on. Out of bounds every hole. Plenty of hazards.
Gorgeous scenery. All types of shots required as holes meander in every direction and shape, with elevation changes up and down and again.
Was a little burnt all over due to to heat and drought conditions. Overall in good shape considering. If you hit it off of the edge of the fairway where there is limited watering, the ball is running and rolling a long way.
Would be nice if ball marks were repaired on the greens. Only complaint is some of the greens were being watered really early afternoon and made for some wet conditions on some of them, while others were dry. Really screwed with already slow and just somewhat smooth greens. Some fairways were long or had grass clippings clumps in big areas. Most sand was thin, but groomed.
A beautiful course in the Hills and valleys and value priced.

Some Construction Going On

Course is in ok shape. Construction of paths, roads, houses, and all else going on.
Greens were varied in speed and condition, some burnt. Fairways were long and rough was short.
Many areas of GUR not marked, nor were hazards/penalty area.
Some holes had distance markings, some did not.
Cart was crap with squeeking brakes that locked up and two front wheels wanting to go different directions, often at different times.
New management is making improvements, but I'll wait until next year to play here again for the $$$$ charged.

Gorgeous and Challenging

Beautiful course in the Hills. Plenty of elevation changes and slopes. Very challenging
Overall great shape with only a few areas needing worked on.
Hazards are well grown in. Rough cut high enough to be penal, but still found balls. Fairways not extremely short but mostly smooth. Greens mostly consistent on cut and speed.
One of the best kept courses in the Hills with some of the best views.
Strongly recommend playing here.

Growing and Greening

Just opening and working on everything. Mowed but high. Most greens, fairways, and tee boxes in reasonable shape with a few areas coming along late. The few traps had sand in them and were groomed.
I enjoy playing here in the Hills and look forward to everything growing in.
