LPGA International - Hills Course

Nice course will play again. All around good experience.

they are tearing down trees building houses around half a dozen greens and tee boxes ruining the peacefulness and serenity when playing the course. but the course is very nice

Booked a tee-time for 2:45. According to their website the course looked all clear. Members aren't allowed to fill up the course until after 3:00pm. I figured with decent pace of play I would be able to whip around 18 real quick, no problem. Had played a morning round, so I didn't need to warm up. Paid for the round at 2:41pm. Guy says "Hills course should be wide open out there!" Perfect, just needed a cart, the first tee and I would be on my way.

Cut to the cart people so many reviews rail against. These gentleman perfectly sum up the generation of "I'm here, that's my work. Don't expect me to actually DO anything while here." No carts were available. When asked when they would be available they casually ignore you and keep playing their cell phone games etc. Sunset in FL around 5:45, tick tick tick tick, time running off the clock. 10 minutes goes by. No cart. 15 minutes goes by. No cart. Finally, at 3:05 a cart arrives. The kid who drops it off pulls up and acts like I've poisoned his grandma for simply needing the most basic service a golf course could require.

Ok, no big deal, have a cart, still have about 2.5hrs. I'm not horrible at this sport, I can do this. Take the nearly 1.5 mile drive to the hills course 1st tee, expectation and excitement growing as I drive. Make the final right hand turn to the first tee only top find it backed up 3 groups deep. While I'm debating what to do, a member cut me off and the groups on the tee and went to number 2. So, while I figure I can join this guy and can play around with him infront of the drunk 4some, my cart dies in the middle of hole 1. It's now 3:35, haven't hit a golf shot. Dead Golf Cart, and less than 2hrs until sunset.

Worst golf experience ever. For a $100.00 a round this is why you have starters, to prevent drunk 4somes getting infront of tee-times. It may be "Florida's" Premier course, but's it's run like a circus.

For $100 per round, this course definitely disappoints. We got to the 1st tee and there was four 4-somes ahead of us so someone let groups in front of us or put their tee times too close. In short, someone dropped the ball at this course. We waited on every tee box and every approach shot so had to stop after 15 holes due to time constraints as we were on pace for a 5 hour and 30 minute round.

Course was in Good Condition, although a little wet. Great are Very Small, but Fair and rolled true! Guess about 10 for speed. I’d play it again.

Course was in great shape. It feels tighter the the Jones course and stay in the fair way the first cut is well maintained but ball gets covered easy.

Highly recommend this course

My complaints are: no person to greet you at the bag drop, no facility to clean your clubs at the practice range, a SEVERE shortage of rakes in the bunkers (some bunkers have NO rakes), nobody to clean your clubs after the round, no gps on the carts and the carts are looking like it’s time to replace them. Having said all that, I really enjoy playing this course. The layout is very challenging for a mid-handicap player. Just wish they improved the experience.

Nice greens and grass conditions. Good layout. Good pace of play. Good practice facilities.

Nice course but very slow round, backed up on every tee box. Enjoyed the layout and course overall though.

The course was very wet but played well, my Daughter and I had a wonderful day of golf.

LPGA Hills course was the nicest course I have ever played. The course was soggy because of hurricane Nicole but played fantastic. The greens were very small and challenging but ran pure when putting. I can't wait to play LPGA again. I played with my Daughter and she played the best round of her life.

We would have liked to cancel since we were in the beginning of then tropical storm Nicole. I prepaid for the round and couldn’t cancel. We ended up leaving early because of off and on rain.
