Hidden Hills Golf Course

We had to wait over 30 minutes to tee off on Saturday due to a lack of golf carts. No offer of anything complimentary for our wait, just waiting like a bunch of sad sacks. If you inconvenience your patrons, why not offer something to make up for the unexpected delay. The course was decent but everyone felt like they had to play to make up for lost time. Finished 18 as the sunset. Far from a great experience, far from a decent experience

A lot of areas with no grass. Greens were overseeded but not mowed so could have been more than 7 on stemp meter. I won’t be going back.

The fairways on the course are like the sand traps... very sandy. The layout is challenging, especially the hilly greens. The pro shop is well stocked. The grill is also pretty good for lunch and the burgers are wonderful. Definitely a place to come try.

Course needs huge amount of work. Fairways awful, greens shaggy and slow, tee boxes dirt.

In disrepair, great layout, challenging, needs renovations,

The greens were the only good part.

I’ve plaid better golf courses for the money…

This is normally a nice course and a great layout, but the front 9 fairways looked like a construction zone. The back 9 was much nicer. I would have expected a much lower rate with the condition of the course.

Greens and several tee boxes are much improved, fairways have a long way to go, very thin, seems like the soil there is not conducive to growing grass

Course is an absolute dump for $67. It’s actually funny they dare to charge that much to hit off a dirt tee box for 18 holes then to be hitting off dirt or sand in the middle of the fairway. Very disappointing considering the course used to be in great shape and has a challenging layout.

Four groups per hole. I have been to this course several times and try not to go too often because I always tee off 20m late because they’re so behind. By hole 5 I am now sitting in view of 3 groups in front of me. I thought this was maybe a 1-off. But every time I come here it’s 5:30 minimum for $70 and a dump course.

Half the tee boxes had barely any grass, fairways had bare patches and marked off areas everywhere, the greens desperately needed mowed.

On hole 14 (14!!), the starter (Rick) comes driving up to my group of 3, right to me. And he lets off the biggest “you’re not playing fast enough rant” I’ve heard in my life. A literal yelling rant. We had a newbie with us so I understand if we were playing slow. However, no one was ever waiting on us to hit, and we were on pace. It was hole 14!! After I finally get a word in he just drives off, waving his arms like a crazy person. I don’t know what this guy's problems was, but it was insanely unprofessional.

If the conditions were good I’d be back, because this is one of the only courses with elevation changes in Jacksonville. But the absolute disrespect that Rick leveled at me, I’ll never go back.

The course is working on the greens. They are not ready yet. The course should not be charging full price yet.

I like the course layout.

I do not understand why they don't maintenance for this good layout challenged course. or if they don't want to. they need to close this course. very disappointed. just go for practice.

I used to love this track. Maybe one of the best layouts in the area. But it has been in rough shape for a few years now. Played it for the first time in about a year hoping for the best since I got a cheap TeeOff deal. The greens have been over seeded and weren’t there yet. They were definitely still a little hairy. But better than the sand covered no grass greens they used to have. Some tee boxes were over seeded and some weren’t. Those that weren’t had very little grass. Those that were were in great shape. The fairways … not so great. Still very sparse on grass. Often had to move the ball around just to find some grass to hit off. I think they’re moving in the right direction but the cooler temps during the winter will probably slow the progress. Wish they had the funds to oversees the fairways, then it would probably be in solid shape in a few weeks. But I’m guessing that hopefully it’ll improve maybe by late spring.

Hidden Hills has the potential to be a top 5 public golf facility in Duval County. It once hosted the GJO. But alas the course remains in poor condition. The tees need resending as do many fairways which have bare spots. The thing about the course is that it is inexpensive to play which of course reflects the poor conditions

What a pleasant surprise. Different elevations on a Florida course. I read reviews and asked golfing friends about hidden hills and it was agreed it’s a nice track, but the quality of the grass had been lacking. The greens rolled true and there were a few bare spots in the fairways. There is a new greens keeper and I bet these conditions will continue to improve. Can’t wait to book it again.
