The greens are in good shape, but very tiny, probably because it is a short course. Fairways have some bad spots but it should grow in. Its a good walking course, relatively flat. Distance between holes is not too bad. The layout is awful. Fair Sharp doglegs where you can't hit 250 or you go through the fairway. One par 4 i hit 8 iron off the tee, was 215 out; hit 4 iron to get over creek, then chipped onto the green. A long par 4, about 420 had a landing area that was about 30 yards wide. For $20 i would come back if nothing else was available, but overall not a very fun course

great course

Course is in great shape. Greens are super fast. I played East Lake earlier this week (2 weeks after tournament) and their greens were not as fast as Ashton hill.

Great shape

The course is in fantastic shape, especially the greens. They are fast and smooth. Best I''ve played in the metro area in many months. The sand traps actually have sand, which is truly unique. I was only in 1 trap, but it was so nice to have sand to hit out of rather than mud or hard dirt.

terible greens

This is a good course. I really like the layout BUT the greens are AWFUL. The recent review that said a "few of the greens are less than perfect but playable" wasn't playing the same course as me. I would say a few of the greens were in decent shape but the rest were awful. Most of the greens had 2 different types of grass plus weeds which meant speed was inconsistent, not just from green to green but on a single putt. On #4 i had a 20 foot putt, the first 10 feet was through grass that looked like fairway grass mowed down, and the 2nd 10 feet through typical green grass. On #6, it looked like someone had taken a shotgun and blown holes in the green. Less than 5 feet from the cup was a hole the size of a baseball, and there were at least 2 dozen smaller holes. At least put sand in the holes. Do not play this course until they get the greens under control.

Great shape

The course is in fantastic shape. The greens are the best i've seen in metro area and i play twice a week all around the city. Fairways are lush, rough is thick but just shy of being unfair .

course is coming along

The fairways are in great shape. The greens were aerated 5-6 weeks ago and haven't completely grown in but they were in good shape and rolled true. Maybe another week or two and they will be perfect. The layout hasn't changed that much with the renovations, but the traps are in great shape. Nice to have real sand. The only negative was slow play. 5 hour round on a thursday.
We play here about 10 times a year and never had such a slow round.

Good course

Played from the blue tees, it was a fair but good challenge. The wind me some long holes very long. Greens were in good shape Nd most were protected by bunkers. Also had a good practice facility.

course condition

Greens were in good shape, a little bumpy but at least they haven't been aerated like the bent grass greens in the area.
Fairways are dormant and pretty washed out from all the rain. Very tight lies, in fairway, i.e. no grass. Winter rules were liberally followed.

aerated greens

I've played this course 20+ times and love it. I don't expect pristine conditions in February, but they recently aerated the greens and didn't mention it and did not give us a discount. I would not play again until the greens have grown back in.

great layout

I love this course. Obviously it was wet since its rained almost every day for the past 4 months. It was cart path only and the cart GPS was not working which meant a little more time and effort getting distance on approach shots. Otherwise, greens were in good shape and the fairways were not too bad, although on some holes it was it tough to find a dry spot. One negative, which prevented a 5 star rating - they had white turf in one of the sand traps on 14. I've never seen this before. Very cheezy.

bad greens

This is a nice layout; tees and fairways were in great shape but greens were AWFUL. I will not go back until i know the greens are better.

The greens were covered in sand, literally. This is a great course, but do not play until the greens are better.

fast greens

The speed of the greens cannot be overstated. On the first hole, i had a birdie putt from 10 feet above the hole. Then i had a par putt from 12 feet below the hole. I'm not complaining, just beware. Otherwise the course was in great shape.
