Rating Snapshot
About
Hillcrest Golf Club possesses a championship length course that offers a great variety of game options with five sets of tees. The course has a traditional design that features open fairways lined with trees, which put a premium on straight shots. The greens vary greatly with some that are relatively flat and medium sized and others that are quite large and dramatically sloped or multi-tiered. In addition to several sand bunkers, water hazards in the forms of lakes and ponds come into play. The signature hole is the par-5 13th, which has been touted by the Phoenix Gazette as being on of the best holes in the state. Hillcrest Golf Club not only has a dogleg around a lake, the hole requires an approach shot uphill to a green that is guarded by eight bunkers.

Loved these palms behind one of the greens. Photo submitted by gailmaher on 03/18/2013
Beautiful BUT
The Fairway is amazing - greens were wonderful ….. BUT anything not on fairways is in muddy tracks - large unkempt areas …. pace of play was slow - and it was a twosome in front of our foursome . The Bar closed promptly at 4 pm …. However the Pro Shop and the cart fellas were amazing and FRIENDLY !’n
Great course value
Fairways and greens in awesome shape. Traps were awful. I don’t understand why people do not fix ball marks on the greens anymore. Selfish I guess. Good track for the money.

Walkons were advised to "work themselves in"
We had a tee time of 2:35. About 2:36 8 people came to the 1st tee and milled around and finally started teeing off. Another twosome that had a tee time at 2:38 talked to them and they said the pro shop told them to "work themselves in". Not what they did and not what should have happened. The group of 8 broke into two foursomes and did not keep pace. We were waiting for them on all the holes we played. They spent a lot of time on the tee and on the green. Poor scheduling by the pro shop. The course was in fairly good shape except for some of the tee boxes which were so dry that it was almost impossible to get a tee in the ground and cart paths need maintenance. The view from the course is beautiful and it was a beautiful day for golf but we don't plan to return.
Nice little surprise
The course is a bit rough in places but the layout of the holes and the terrific condition of the fairways and greens make up for it. Nice track to play
great day
hillcrest was always a favorite course of mine. great track and pleasant surroundings. Just hoping the new ownership spruces up all the neglected areas and gets all the many dead areas revived with new grass or even artificial turf if applicable. AND-would be wonderful to have designated cart paths re-implemented throughout the course. it used to hold the Senior Tour Championship back in the day-would love to see it back to those conditions!
March Golf
I thought your rough was horrible. Dirt snd no grass outside fairway was extremely bad.
No one should ever pay over $40 for this course
One positive your greens were good
Hillcrest
Pot holes everywhere, pace of play horrible, we waited at least 10 minutes on every hole.
Challenging greens but fun
Just a few areas around the course that could use some TLC Fairways and greens are in great shape
Slow
They book to many t tees together. Had 3 cart back up at times.
Has to be a hot deal
Pricing is getting pretty high for this course. If you can get a hot deal it’s doable.
Not worth the price slow play lots of mud and dirt areas
The lay out is fine
Pace of pace was poor at over 4 1/2 hours a nd still didn't finish due to darkness.
