Hillcrest is coming back up life

Played on a beautiful but windy April Day, very pleased with the effort the management has made since it took over from great life. The bunkers are in great shape fluffy white sand and the greens run true and fast. Course is a gem but challenging especially if your not hitting your shots straight off the tee.

Fun course with some interesting holes

This is a fun local course in NK. It’s pretty forgiving and short 6100 approximately from the tips, well maintained, and has some well placed sand traps that make you think twice on your approach shots. The greens were pretty good had been aerated somewhat recently but have healed and ran true though didn’t play that much break except for a few holes. The back 9 has some fun holes that are somewhat blind and brings a little water into play with a nice view of Narragansett bay in the background. My only complaint would be that it was very slow. It was a 1:30pm Sunday afternoon beautiful fall day and people were going very slow. For the amount of people on the course I would have thought we’d finish in a under 4 hours but it took us 4.5 to finish 18 with lots of waiting in the tee box. Otherwise great course, not too demanding but I would play there again & hope to score better :)

Love Fred

Always a good time, sometimes the course is really slow but not today. Able to play 18 in 4 hrs. Greens in great shape for late March.

Challenging but worth it

I’ve played deer creek about 5 times this year it’s a challenging layout lots of trees and trouble if you aren’t accurate with your shots and the greens can be really fast and hard to read sometimes. The course rewards focus and course management. I played Tuesday 12:10 with a $25 hot deal tee time it was a blast, pace was great, and weather was great.

Decent layout, quick, and cheap.

I played Thai course a lot when I first started playing golf so it's got some nostalgia for me. It definitely could be better maintained, the tee boxes from the blues were hardly marked on some holes some where just spray painted on the grasss others only had one marker. (This is an easy fix but I guess they would rather spend the money/time trying to get the greens in shape). Overall greens are decent but not anywhere close to the speeds or undulations you'd get at say Fred Arbanas or Deer Creek. What I do love about the course is the layout it's fun and has some challenging holes - tighter on the front longer on the back. Also I love the pace of play - $20 for 18 with a cart on golf now in the afternoons and you can easily get a round in at 3hrs.

Great Course

Excellent layout and conditions, can be challenging if you don't keep it straight. GPS carts are a nice touch! One of my favorite courses in KC area.

Hard but enjoyable Course

I really enjoyed my round the course layout is excellent and challenging. There is a lot of trouble around the course as a creek is in play on most of the holes sometimes off the fairway and sometimes in front of the green. If you grip and rip it without much consideration you may end up in a bunker or with a really difficult approach. The greens are huge and ran pretty true for a cold March Sunday. Overall if you play here you want to bring your A game and maybe a friend who knows the course enough to help you navigate the course.
