Hickory Heights Golf Club

I can't believe that this course gets any play, given the course conditions, pace of play, uncompromising staff and ownership, and price. The amount of money they charge for this place is criminal.

Let's start with the course layout and conditions. How they managed to cram 18 holes into this tiny residential parcel of land was admittedly an engineering marvel. Two consecutive par 3's on the front nine, several blind shots, short/narrow holes, burnt out fairways, weeds, and drastic elevation changes are present throughout.

Speaking of the consecutive par 3's, they have completely lost the tee boxes on both holes. Rather than spend money to repair them, they have set up mats for both holes with short pitch shots (nothing more than a sand wedge) onto severely sloped greens - beyond a joke.

Pace of play was also abysmal - 3 hours for 9 holes. We gave up after 9 holes and asked for a rain check for 9 holes on a later date, which I thought they gave us until I went to redeem the rain check. Because they charge more money to play 9 holes than half the price for a round of 18 holes, they asked me to pay more money to play the "rain check" 9. I not-so-politely declined (even speaking to the owner, with no success). I told them to keep their rain check, and advised that I would never return.

I strongly suggest that you keep your money and do the same. Way better public courses out there.

Just played hickory heights in bridgeville pa. Course t boxes horrible shape . Some of the greens too. 43 dollar senior weekday rate a waste of money. They are obviously not interested in improvements.. it is in worse condition than when i played it 10 years ago.

Course and food value was exceptional, the course conditions are mailing it more playable. Only lost 1 ball.

It's been a couple of years since I last played this course and it will be a long time until I return.

The course was never a favorite due to a layout that can be charitably called "quirky". Not so charitablity be deemed awful. Not a lot of really strong holes and too many weak holes.

Worse than the course itself was the course conditions. The greens, fairways, and tee boxes were horrendous. Dead or diseased areas, not spots, areas, all over the place. The one hole had every single tee box closed for repair. The 9th green had parallel gouges in it that were clearly from improper mower settings. They don't seem to know what they're doing.

The staff was nice enough, but need better training. The beverage cart ladies came up the path while we were on the tee and drove right up to our carts but couldn't get around. I was about to tee off, but had to ask them to move since they were essentially right in front of the tee box and were in danger of being hit. They couldn't move the cart and decided to jump out to move away. Now I had to tee off with a cart in front of me.

All of this for $57. Couldn't pay me to play there again.

The only good thing was that the food at the clubhouse was good. Much better than the actual golf. OK, pace of play was reasonable, but that's because no one was there cause it's not worth playing.

The greens and tee boxes on this course are in horrible shape. It looks like they have a fungus or insect infestation. It definitely is not worth the price given the poor condition.

Enough of a challenge for anyone. Great layout. No bugs. Well run facility.

This course was in excellent shape. Challenging, but very enjoyable! The greens were fairly fast, but I believe they could be cut even tighter. However, they rolled true. The course required you to hit the ball straight. There were definitely issues created by bad shots. Just the way a golf course is supposed to be. I’ll be back.

A little off the beaten path but greens immaculate. Ran fair and true. Not a bad Price for a Sunday round. We were first group off. Fairways a little tight but in very good shape. Up and down lies but expected either course in this area. Would definitely recommend and will play again when back in town.

Only played 4 holes before rain came in and we got washed out. Greens were nice and quick, fairways and rough were a bit burnt out, bunkers were all raked nice. Best part of the course is the nice carts with the GPS systems....

Told the guy inside we only played 4 holes, instead of getting a rain check for all 18 he gave us the value "minus the holes we played". We payed $32, only got rain check for $24, so will have to pay additional $8 when we come back.

Overall, from the 4-5 holes we saw, pretty decent for $32. Wouldn't pay the $40 or $48 on weekend.
