Great round
Excellent experience. South course was great with beautiful fairways & fast greens. First time on the west course. 3rd hole ate me up but was a great learning experience. Fairways & greens were also in great shape.
Good layout but needs a little grooming
Very nice layout with some challenging holes. Par fives can be reached in 2 (from the whites). Played this in May and condition was in excellent condition. However, yesterday, course was in pretty good condition, however, with the lack of rain we've had recently, they should keep it watered and groomed more often. I would recommend this course,
We need rain!!!!
The lack of any rain this summer an the current heat wave has the course in rough shape. Also for some reason they are not putting watering stations out on the course for liability reasons. So they came up with a great idea. They have a employee drive around an sale you bottled water. Greens were super fast on the south course not as bad on the north. Didn't get to play the west.
Nice layout
Although I was disappointed with the pro shop staff - they seemed too busy in the office - the starter was very friendly and wanted to make sure I had a good visit. I played the South and North 9s. I did not see the West 9. The layout was excellent. Each hole was unique, and required accurate tee shots. The greens had a lot of undulations but ran pretty true and I appreciated that they were fairly fast. There were a few places in the tee box and fairways where the grass was a little thin, but overall the course was in good shape. Beer options on tap in the snack bar were pretty limited, but I will definitely be back. A great value for the money.
Excellent challenging course
Wish I had fouND this course earlier in our stay in Gettysburg, PA as I would have played more often as they have 2u holes to play and you can mix them in your 18 hole round. Super friendly staff and very helpful.
Beautiful layout
I have played here for over 25 yrs. The course under current weather conditions is in excellent shape. Staff is always courteous .
We shall return!
Ratings
I know from experience that this golf course was kept in really nice condition back in 2000.Now I see that the owner doesn't want to put any extra money into this golf course. I really do think that became of this the grounds crew might be at that point why should we care when the owner doesn't care.
Golfing In Late August
Course conditions, for Pennsylvania late-August and no significant rain in awhile, were good. Parking lot was mostly full , but pace of play was great and we did not need to wait on any hole. Played South-North
South hills
Good course, friendly staff and nice layout. Pro shop has plenty to offer and the course is always well maintained. Definitely one to put on your play list.
Not Long But Very Challenging
This is an mature traditional golf course run by a very friendly and helpful staff. It is enjoyable to navigate but, it would be very helpful to have a yardage book to give pertinent information for first time players.
The greens and fairways have been a little beaten up by the heat however the greens rolled very true
Well worth the 75 mile trip each way from Bowie Mayland.
Relaxing Morning
Played nine holes with my wife and son and had a nice relaxing time. We didn't feel pressured that someone was pushing up behind us at any point.
North v south
The greens were dry and didn't hold like I am use to. Challenging undulations and tough pin placement , made it more challenging! They had a marshal out watching the play which is always nice !!
Great learning experience
Great course that was a challenge for me as a beginner.
Met a couple of nice guys that offered tips to help improve my game.
Great Course
South Hills is a great course. Unlike most courses in the area, their greens are challenging. I would say very rarely did I have a straight putt. I look forward to playing South Hills again.
Fitting of area
Good value, this last round was Father's day and it was soaked, water in every cup, but typically course conditions are quite nice. It's appropriately priced and maintained for the area, it seems a touch harder than some other courses in the area, the fairways and pair 3's are accessible, but the greens are more interesting than other courses. Sand adds to more difficulty on approach, but it's at least well maintained. It's probably most similar to Flatbush or Quail Valley, it's slightly nicer then National or Cedar Ridge, but it's not the Links or Black Rock, and it's priced as such.
Did not have to wait
There was a group of 5 ahead of us. However there was no one behind us. So we were able to play several balls to avoid having to sit and wait which worked out perfectly. Course was in good shape except cart paths could use some attention.
Great course, carts need help
The North course needs a little attention to make it as nice as the South course. All of the greens were in great shape. These courses have been around for a while so the cart paths have a lot a root bumps, etc. Unfortunately the carts have been around for a while, too, and need some attention (shocks, seats). All in all, these are two courses that we always enjoy and did this time too.
