Very nice course, great value

I have played this course a couple of times and it is a nice course and one worth playing. With the exception of a couple of green buried in the woods, the course was in very nice shape. It has a nice layout which meanders throughout the course (as opposed to some cookie cutter courses where all holes run parallel to each other). There are some nice elevation changes and a really good variety of holes to keep things interesting. Definitely check this one out.

Course was in great shape

Course was in great shape...greens a little softer and slower than I've seen them normally...there's a couple greens on the back 9 that have some considerable damage...sanded, but didn't really effect play as the pins were set away from the damaged areas...

Great course for all golfers

Dauphin Highlands is a great course for all skill levels. Off the tee, the course is not intimidating at all. You will not lose many balls on your first shot. From there, a handful of greens are a bit "tucked in," but overall it's open. In fact, the only thing that kept me from labeling this course as "Easy" is the fact that I'm a hacker, so no course is easy to me. Anyone lower than a 12 handicap will most likely tear this course up.

The course is in really good shape. It is definitely worth playing, especially if you can get a deal on here. The standard rates might get a bit steep for what you're getting, but if you are reading this review on GolfNow, chances are you've already learned never to pay the full rate. I'd say this course is worth $45 to play, but can be had for less.

Challenges you on almost every hole.

Great course can't wait to come back. Had to use every club in the bag. Length was important on some holes and position was important on others. Two greens were in bad shape. They had informed us at the first tee. On one the hole was placed in the middle of the damaged area and on the other the damaged area was not in play. I thought a couple of the par threes were a bit extreme for us 'white tee' players. I thought 4.5 hours was reasonable for a Sunday.

One of the Best Local Courses

I try to play Dauphin Highlands at least once a year. It's one of my favorite in my local area. The course was, and usually is in good condition.

It has huge greens that are usually fast. Be careful not to be above the hole on some pin locations or you will pay. I had two 3 foot birdie putts that I missed and finish at least 6 feet away for par, even after barely touching the ball on the putts.

Two of the guys I was with played the black tees. At over 7,100 yards, I plays very long for almost all amateurs from there.

I walked this course once and will never do it again as the greens to the next tee is long and the course is hilly.

Very good condition; great layout.

Dauphin has always been one of my favorite public courses. Not TOO penal if you stray a bit on most holes; greens are super; DO NOT BE ABOVE THE HOLE!!! Will be back several times yet this year.

green speed terrific

pace of play miserable...5 hours. instead of trying to make as much $ as possible why not do 10 minute tee time spacing. could use a second marshall. take one your club cleaning guys and make a marshall.

First Time Playing

Staff and Course were Excellent

My foursome had a great experience at Dauphin Highlands. Arrived at the course and were immediately greeted in the parking lot by a bag attendant that gave us directions to what level of the club house to enter. Everyone in the pro shop was courteous and shared about promotions they had up coming. Practice area was super with multiple tee areas and four different greens as targets. Starter was super about explaining the yardage markers and pin placements. The course was in phenomenal condition, with some of the best greens I have putted on at a municipal course. Conditions and staff made this a Country Club type experience and we will be back as it was worth the hour plus drive!!!

Course is in great shape!

New management is obviously turning things around. You can tell the difference at Dauphin Highlands now from years past.

Greens are in pretty good shape, fairways are lush and well-maintained, bunkers could use some work but are still MUCH better than area courses.

Great course to play

This was a great course to play. We played on a hot day and they had water out on every other hole. The course was in great shape and the greens were pristine and fast. The only issue we encountered were the bunkers being pretty hard. Would be nice to hit out of some raked sand. This course is very open and forgiving for guys inaccurate off the tees. The staff were friendly and clubhouse food was reasonably priced. I will enjoy playing this course more often. Thank you for the great day of golf!

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everything from the starter, to the course in is pristine condition. The green roll true and not super fast. The tee box's are level and flat which I love personally. This is seriously one of the best course's I have played in the area. For the price, you just can't be it here. This is a MUST PLAY for any true golf enthusiast. I played this course two years ago and was turned off by the quality, they are under new management and now it is the way it is suppose to be. PERFECT!

Fun course to play for all levels.

The starter at the course was great. He was personable and knew how to work with the customer. The food area could use a little attention to the customer. There was one gal and she went to the back to prepare some food for another customer. All I wanted was a drink and it took way too long. Overall a positive experience.

Greens in better condition this year

Course is well-maintained and the greens on the back nine have been nurtured back to the way they should be. Greens were true, but faster than remembered. Wind came up during back nine and slowed pace. Added clubs to last 3 holes - especially 17. Remains a favorite.

This course has some great layout

Most of the bunkers have rocks or pebbles in them. Try to avoid them if possible. On 16 the green has some damage. Everything else was in great shape
