Forest Hills Golf Course

This course looked and felt like a lot of older municipal courses around the country that were built in the same era. It's not too long, but long enough, and you can get in trouble if you get out of position. The conditions were good for early spring; a little soft in a few spots, but generally good. The greens and fairways were great. The pace was very slow; they were running about 1/2 an hour behind on tee times, and it was almost a 5 hour round.

I know it's been raining but, I wish the course had better drainage.

It would make course top rated.

Very slow round. No Marshall to keep the pace of play.

I played Friday and had such a great time I played again the following Monday, I love this course!

I was surprised by the plugged fairways staff was busily collecting in alternative rows so relief from stance or ball in the plugs was easy. I essentially had to play winter rules in October. Staff as always was friendly and gracious about my disappointment, typically I’ll see a warning when I booked it, I didn’t see any, I do look this time of year every time. Quick round was able to play solo.

If Eastmoreland and Glendover had a baby it would Forest Hills. Lots of trees and lots of elevation changes. Decided to play somewhere new and found a good deal at Forest Hills. A double dogleg 6th was the highlight of the front nine for me.

I thought the back had some fun holes with small greens requiring accuracy.

My only complaint is the pace of play got bogged down at times and there wasn't a marshall on the course to keep things moving but it was a nice fall day so it was manageable to deal with.

If you can get out this way this course is excellent. challenging for all level of players. Toughest rated hole is number 4 a 208 yard par 3. Another par 3 on back number 17 is a butt-clencher 209 par 3. If i lived out that way i would always recommend and i would definitely join the club as a member.
