LPGA International - Hills Course

Course conditions are great. However there is not one ball washer on the entire course! Also no pictures of the hole layout on the score card.

Additionally the area around the course is full of large earth movers and bare clear cutting of the trees. Natural area surrounding the course is being destroyed to add housing I assume.

The Hills course is a more challenging layout than the Jones course in my opinion. Very little room for error in most cases. If your ball is off target, you may be unable to locate it due to the natural hazards. Sand bunkers need attention and course does not supply enough rakes to be maintained be players during play. Fairways and greens in above average condition. LPGA International is our favorite place to play in and around Daytona.

You can see they just aren’t putting money into he operation. There was literally a 30 person deep 30 minute delay from scheduled t-time because they didn’t have enough carts to service the play. This is patently absurd. I inquired and learned they are on the 5th year of a 4 year lease agree to replace carts. (Again cost cutting erasure while play suffered). Why is this bad? Because as you would expect, my cart dies on the 15th hole. Stranded and holding people up. They brought another out, then the twosome we were playing their cart died one hole later. Two old men and they were hot! Pace of play SLOOOOOWWWW and the rangers drive around but do nothing to speed up play. Positive? The greens where. Very good. Mostly true will a little speed such that if you were on the wrong side of the hole it was punitive.

Condition was fairly good. However, on course services were terrible. Got to the range and no buckets. Had to retrieve empties from the range. Several green tee markers missing. No water on the course. No towels in carts. No Ranger to move slow groups along. Compared to prior years I’ve played there, the playing experience has diminished considerably. Heard excuse of full tee sheet due to race weekend. You didn’t know that ahead of time?

We played at the Hill's. The course was good, but we ran into some construction at the few holes. It was ugly.

Tee time was delayed by 90 minutes. There were no cards available. Construction of houses, course is run down.

Had a 1:15 pm tee time. Showed up and lots of golfers standing around. Staff was indifferent which I couldn’t blame them. Everyone was waiting on golf carts to be returned from the earlier rounds.

Can you imagine a supposed premium golf venue NOT having enough golf carts during the prime golf season. We teed off an hour after our tee time and we got done just at dark. Poor golfers behind us probably couldn’t finish.

Course was nice, but insufficient carts is unacceptable.

Golf course busy due to special going on.greens very good.only issue fairways and rough wet.alot of mud balls

Starter very pleasant.

Tee time 1:15, no cart until 1:40. Old foursome in front split into 2 very slow twosomes. Pace of play was horrendous. No marshal to regulate pace. Round took 5 hours. Course is in excellent condition and by far the best courses in the area. Tee box was stacked with 4 foursomes throughout the round with no improvement. On course management needs to improve. Groups shouldn’t be able to do whatever they want.

We love coming out the LPGA and playing golf. Conditions are always very good and the staff is friendly. Very helpful. Very disappointed in the pin locations today. Not sure if they had a tournament recently or the guys were just trying to be funny. . The pins were literally 3 to 4 feet from the edge of the greens at times and on large slopes. Made it very difficult to have an enjoyable round of golf.
