Course layout, pace of play
We started the first hole having the starter scream at us from the tee box after only a few moments which was a harbinger of how the round would go. We felt pressed the entire time. There are only 8 minutes between tee times which is clearly not enough for this course. Holes are right on top of each other so you are in danger while waiting to tee off at the next hole. We were nearly hit multiple times while in the course and waiting to tee off. After the fourth hole there is a meet up of four holes (it’s also the turn for the 9) and waited nearly 20 minutes to tee off. We left after six holes because we felt unsafe.
Hickory Hills CC
The course was fair but had over 100 trees down due to severe weather earlier in the week. The greens were in very good shape. The clubhouse, halfway house all need to be repaired and updated. The building looks like a dump! The cart paths are in terrible shape.
Do NOT Recommend
Terrible experience. I arrived for my Saturday morning tee time only to find the course had been closed for 3 days and no notification had been sent.
When I went to the pro shop, the staff member acted like I should have known there were trees down on the course and that they had been closed since Wednesday. I asked why golfers with tee times weren't notified, and was told they couldn't send emails because the power was out. After three days of closure, that explanation didn't make much sense.
What was most disappointing was the complete lack of customer service—no apology, no empathy, just a rude attitude. I'll be taking my business elsewhere.
Cart Paths are like Speed Bumps Every Hole
The cart paths are atrocious. You will be bouncing all over the place. Greens had plenty of ball divots in them. 2.5-3 stars. Anything over $50 stay away
I’ve played many courses and I don’t agree it’s worth the green fees they charge. It seems like they are still under construction and working on the whole property in some way or another. I don’t think I will be returning. Every cart path needs to be repaired.
Great Course
The only criticism is we were behind slow players and no staff members were out to move them along. We skipped a hole to pass them
Working on a few holes during our round but did not impact us. With all the rain the fairways were in very good shape. We completed the course in a good pace. The one negative the yardage on the scorecard is. Not close to reality.
Good shape for time of year
Fairways and greens were in great shape, rough was pretty deep just off the fairway. A little wet, but to be expected with all the rain. Fun course and overall good value for the price.
A good layout being neglected
This course has a fantastic layout in this area. However, maintenance is hopelessly poor. They are doing some work on the first hole - looks like they are extending the creek to the halfway point of the fairway. But they need to repair the cart paths. They look worse than Chicago streets. Access to Tee # 10 is dangerously degenerated.
Confusing!
Enjoyable but incredibly slow (5 hours+)
Since I am 80 years old, I usually play the forward tee. On the day I played there was no forward tee box?
Good condition for March Golf
Course is in pretty good shape for March. Senior price and speed of play was pretty good. Only downfall is the putting green is on a total slant and cant get good readings on thr greens
Just Average
Conditio not great. Would only play if I got a deal. Old course that has seen better days. After my round, I went to post my score online, and the par and yardage online didn't match what was o. the scorecard- it was quite a bit less. When I checked the scorecard for course rating and Slope to do it manually, it wasn't even listed on the scorecard! It's like they've given up. Only a decent layout and a cheap price and location entices me to play there occasionally.
Awful experience
pace of play was AWFUL, 30+ per hole, waiting on every shot, no respect for others. Staff was very unprofessional and unfriendly. Course was not in good shape and was poorly designed. Nothing good about this course. Very run down.
Very Good Layout, Cart Paths are in bad condition
The Greens and fairways are in good shape, in spite of the bad weather we had the previous days. But the cart paths need repair badly. The access to Hole 10 green is dangerous
