Dauphin Highlands Golf Course

For my first time playing this course, I must say I was impressed with the conditions. Aerated greens were not a problem; ball was rolling quite well on the greens.

Pace of play can be a bit slow but that's always subjective (I still finished my round in 5 hours which I think is fine)

I play Dauphin Highlands a few times a year and have been doing so for 4-5 years now. This is the worst I have seen the course. Firstly, in my bucket of balls on the range, 6 of them were broken. The pace of play, particularly on the front 9 was slow, we waited on many tees, which pace has always been an issue. Then, the majority of the greens were littered with divot marks, old and new. There was sand all over the tee boxes as well, also with unrolled divots, even on par 4 and 5’s. Then, as we were making the turn, we were notified that there was league play beginning and that groups would be “mixing in” with us as we continued play on the back 9. This is unacceptable, particularly for how much the greens fees have gone up over the years. The staff did not have a good explanation other than that “management” was to blame for our tee times being allowed booked, knowing that league play would be coming in. This is all disappointing and it’s sad to see Dauphin Highlands in this state, a steady decline in quality over the years, with an increase in price to boot.

I got to play this course for a good rate otherwise I would have been very disappointed. 8 min tee times are horrible for any course let alone a course charging 80 to play. I know it was a nice day and full course so I can understand some waiting and some back up at times. However, over a 5 hour is always a negative thing. They need to spread out the tee times more to avoid it. I would only recommend this course during slow periods or if you enjoy waiting to hit most shots. As for conditions. They were solid for a spring round where our temps have been up and down.

Good value, solid condition lots o hole variety. Can be a championship challenge from the back tees or a playable enough course for higher handicap players. Relatively wide off the tees with lots of elevation change throughout. My favorite public course in the Hershey area

Course was In excellent shape for February. Beautiful day. Beautiful course. Will play a ton more.

This is one of the more challenging courses in the Harrisburg area.. Glad I was able to play on a beautiful fall afternoon. The hot deal was incredible!

They punched the greens the day that we played so putting was impossible to predict. A really good course regardless, just bad timing. Still a fun day!
