Nice City Course

Fairway and greens were in good shape for this late in season. There were many leaves on the course but there were people out there blowing them away. Really a good value for the money.

Just the right amount of challenge & value...

This is my "Home" course, so granted I'm a little biased, but best suited for the golfer trying to get in 18 without all the "bells and whistles". It's a short course, but it really maximizes its distance with hazard placement and sneaky long holes. A good choice every time.

Hidden Gem of a Public Course

Great course conditions, overall very impressed with condition...only a few holes could use some love around the greens and all fairways and tee boxes were well kept up.
The pace was very slow on this day, as it seemed many foursomes out on the course.
Overall its a good course close to my house, play it a handful of times a year when I want to just get out and play a round.

Quick 18

18 holes done on a weekday afternoon in record time. Courteous players allow faster ones to play through. Fairways and rough in excellent condition, but lots of unrepaired greens-enough to influence score.

Super nice for a muni!!!

Awesome course for the money. It is very short, so if you are an advanced golfer I recommend playing from the tips.

My wife and I played, and she is a beginner, and she found the course accessible and not too intimidating.

The course offers some challenging holes along with some bunnies which makes for fun golf when you have a chance at a birdie or two. The greens were nice and the landscaping excellent.

Overall, this is a great place to play

Great course for the money

Being a novice golfer I always search for the best deals when playing 18. Sometimes however this leads to a below average course. Not at Philips Park. The course was very well kept and the pace of play was quick but still relaxing. I would and will definitely come back.

Another Awesome Round At Phillips Park

Played another 18 at Phillips Park yesterday. I don't write many reviews, but feel compelled to say thank you to the staff at Phillips Park. I just started playing golf more seriously, and have spent a bit of time over at the course this Summer. Every round has been fun, the course is in GREAT shape, and the staff there at Phillips is one of the friendliest i've ever dealt with. The snack shop is awesome, and the ladies make a phenomenal homemade tuna salad sandwich almost daily. Highly recommend playing this course and sharing in the experience...

Good place

Usually played this course before for practice rounding many years ago. Played this year and I realized this course is managed very well. Good green conditions and good speed.
I will play next time again if price is right.
Compare to green fee of years ago has been raised a lot.

Suprised at how well kept this course is. Maybe I'm just biased towards the Aurora area, but this course changed my mind. Kudos, Phillips team, I will be back!

Phillips Park

The course was in good condition. We teed off 30 minutes after our scheduled 12:05 tee time. There were a lot of weekend warriors on the course=slow play. The front nine which is a classic Links lay out took us about 2 hours and thirty minutes. The back nine which is very different with lots of hills. Play was slower on the back and we finished in 5 hours and 15 minutes. The Ranger did his best but with a record number of golfers per the Starter, the round took longer than we expected. We still enjoyed the course. Plan to play Phillips Park again probably on a week day.
