The layout of the course is interesting, challenging and features perfectly manicured lush, rolling fairways. You'll be glad you experienced this excellent combination of hole designs and truly great golf. Water comes into play on 10 holes.

Better condition

I thought the course layout was great. A lot of the greens had patchwork like they were repairing them. The tee boxes were very high grass needed to be cut. I think the price would’ve been fair if the course was kept up. The staff was great. They did have a lot of people out there working on the course. I’m not sure Why wasn’t in good shape. Overall B minus

Price ???

Needs a bit of care around the course if you want to charge that kind of money. I love this course and go every year, but prices ranges from 89$ from CanAm, to 138$ as a Hotdeal on GolfNow, to 169$ if you book at the course... Lets get serious.. The course is interesting, but the greens were slow and speed uneven from one hole to the other. I've seen it in better shape. Will return, but I will check to make sure I have my money's worth.

Buena cancha pero no estaba en buenas condiciones

Una cancha muy linda pero no estaba bien mantenida.

Los tees de salida eran rough directamente. No estaban ni puestas las bochas de salida.

Los greenes mal estado.

Recomendada pero averiguar el estado de la cancha

A great course in bad condition

I lived in emerald hills for years from the mid 70’s to the late 90’s and played the course many, many times. I remembered it as a quality course that was well maintained. Unfortunately it’s no longer that course. The fairways were desperately in need of a refresh and the tee boxes were just terrible. Many I’m being too harsh because I’m now used to playing well manicured private courses but emerald hills is no longer a premier course

Didn’t play

Poured rain off and on the entire day. Chose not to play, but golf course didn’t declare a rainout so I lost $454. Live and learn.

I have deleted Golf Now app immediately.

Over rated and staff rude

The starter was not pleasant at all. It appeared as if he was annoyed that we were playing there as non members. If that’s the case then I would suggest that they should not offer Tee times on GOLFNOW.

On the 17th tee he came out to tell us to speed up because he had a lot of foursomes out on the course. At this time we had not held up the group behind us all round.

This course was $40 more than the other 3 courses we played.

The Greens were the worst of the 4 courses we played.

Not worth the money to play here.

One of the best course layouts I have ever played. Great golf holes. Pace of play probably slow because of difficulty. Crowded on day I played. Condition of course could be better otherwise this would be considered a truly great golf course.

Challenging but poor value

I’ve played this course many times but not for two years. Prices have increased disproportionately to all other courses. Fairways are brown greens in marginal shape. This course is not what it used to be.

Great view

We found the coarse to be a beautiful place and great layout. However the greens and tee box’s were in very rough shape.

We had a good experience place of play was slow but overall good experience.
