Wet but fun

With no fault to the grounds crew, the weather these days have made the course wet and soggy, though the greens are in great shape. It wasn't very busy that day and 2 of us played the Black and White courses in about 3 1/4 hours and had a blast.

Not a good winter course

Keith Hills has three nines--you play two for your eighteen. That means if you play in the afternoon, you run into folks making the turn on the tee box where you're starting your round. On the day we played, there was no one from the course at our tee box. It was a free for all--whoever got there first got to tee it up, regardless of scheduled starting time. As a result, our round started nearly a half-hour late. Play was slow, compounding the problem.

Further dampening (literally) the day was the fact that the course does not drain well. NC winters are wet and courses get swampy. This one was swampier than most. On some holes it was just about impossible to find a spot to hit off that didn't result in a face full of mud.

Finally, if, like me, you are COVID-conscious, know that neither the staff nor the other patrons here seem especially concerned about the pandemic. Saw quite a few staff not wearing masks at all, or wearing them incorrectly (i.e., nose exposed). Maybe you don't care, and if so, more power to you. Me, I won't be back here until after the pandemic is over, and then only during dry weather, and probably only on a weekday. Our round took five hours to complete, which is just too long, even on a weekend.

Wet and Very Slow

Where were the Rangers, at the five hour mark I still had 5 holes to play. Frustration level was off the charts, For a school and course that prides itself the PGA program, something should have been done. I know we have had more than our fair share of rain, but the Black Nine was in miserable shape. Discounts should have been offered..

Great Course but incredibly wet

Keith Hils Golf Course is an excellent experience. The only downside is the amazing amount of rain we’ve gotten this winter which has the course extremely wet and muddy, but I’m sure that’s the same for all courses. Keith hills overall is the best secret in North Carolina.

White course condition was fine but frost delay of 1.5 hours with no mention on telephone outgoing message or website. Pace of play was not good this day. Normally a very enjoyable place to play. Staff is friendly.

Great value!

Course was in great condition, greens very good and consistent throughout. I really liked the fairways. Having three 9's also adds variety. Well worth the drive to enjoy this course.

Tough rough

Thin fairways lead to a lot of lost balls in the thick rough. Very fun yet challenging

Never got to play

We never got to play the course this time. We showed up 30 minutes early, hit some on the range, then when it was our tee time we were informed that they were several tee time slots behind because they were out of carts. I understand that it is COVID and the cart situation is a little different, but all you have to do is reduce the number of tee times. The few times I have played the course it’s always in good shape but this was ridiculous
