The executive-length Grass Clippings at Rolling Hills (formerly known as Rolling Hills Golf Course) provides an excellent game and it is a very player-friendly course. True to its name, the course is quite hilly causing a few elevation changes and undulating greens. The fairways are lined with pretty trees, adding some challenge and beauty to the course. There are no water hazards but there are a few strategically placed bunkers to worry about as well as some out-of-bounds stakes bordering a few of the holes. Grass Clippings at Rolling Hills consists of ten par 3s and eight par 4s. On the premises there are also practice facilities, a pro shop, and an on-site golf pro.

I Feel Clipped

How could anyone screw up, what was a challenging executive course, so bad in such a short period of time? I've been golfing this course for greater than 20 years and have never seen the conditions so bad and the coarse layout screwed up so much. The best thing about the course was the staff friendliness, now they were amazing! The cost of golfing this course is exorbitant and value for money is non-existent. Let's turn this course back into something that is playable as well as enjoyable and not some hyped up piece of junk. I'm not only upset with the course layout and changes but the exorbitant prices are unbelievable. Please turn the course back to the city where they at least know how to run a decent golf course!!

Perfect weather!

To much dirt paths around the clubhouse and outside bare area. The cart paths in general need some love. Greens were hard and fast, very challenging. Beers were over over priced! Overall had a fun enjoyable round !

Fantastic Executive Course

If you are looking to tighten up your irons or just play a shorter round, this is the place.

The staff is top notch. I played as a single and pro shop were able to move up my tee time. The starter was awesome and easily the most friendly starter I have ever run across.

Play here. You will love it.

Fun community golf, day or night

Better late than never, this facility, when overhauled a few years ago, finally brought night golf to the Valley of the Sun. It is a great hangout as well as a golf spot, as fit for an evening driving range grind session as for a fun meetup with friends around the par-3 course, whose terraced greens provide just enough challenge under the lights.

Lots of changes ??

Not the same, they are working to change it up for learning to golf I think? and have night golf also. Lights and speakers everywhere with music playing and sometimes really loud. Carpet on the Tee boxes probably a good thing as the grass on most tee boxes is completely dug up with divots everywhere as well as a lot of divots on some fairways. Where's those people who can't seem to repair divots. Greens are strange grass ?? Don't think I'll be back.

They're trying

I could tell the owners are trying to make this place newer, fun and trendy, but the course needs some work. Tee boxes are pretty bad and it'll all target shooting, no fairways.

Not the Greatest

We were disappointed in this course. It is a long walk carrying clubs to the bag drop area which is next to the pro shop. No carts allowed in the parking lot. The signs did not match the tee boxes so it was confusing at times. I paid $3.25 for a small cup of coffee. The pace of play was average. This is a desert course so there is a lot of dust involved. They said they are doing some construction but I'm not sure what it would be. We will not be back.
