Great course, but overbooked
I love GH, its a fantastic course. But in no world should a solo rider take over 4 hours to play 18 because the course is so backed up and no one will let you play through. Part of it is on the people playing, but part is also in the course overbooking itself

Are in good shape but the fairways lies are tight with barely any grass to hit from
Today was a slow day and Golden Hills with the senior league going in full swing during the morning which then backed up things into the afternoon but you made do for the most part. The fairways were still pretty bare but the greens were in good shape and slower than I remember in past outings.

Slow Play
Golden Hills is a great golf course but the pace of play is frustratingly slow. A tactful ranger would certainly speed things along. I live 5 minutes away and only play the course infrequently because of the slow pace of play.

Good condition fun layout
Really enjoyed my day at Golden Hills. Greens and fairways were in great shape. The course is somewhat tight in places, but fair. A number of really fun holes. The hot deal rate for like 45 bucks is, in my opinion, the among best value in the Columbia area.

A very solid course to walk and to play
Played this course before and it’s challenging to score well. Fairways are fair but the greens are fast (keep it below the hole). I will certainly return to try and conquer next time!

Too many groups just jumping out on the golf course. We quit on the 13th hole when 4 groups were on that hole.
