Locust Hills Golf Course

About my 10th time playing here, always enjoy it, Tournament just got done so course was wide open so pace was great, and reasonably priced there. Worth it for the price, but aerated fairways and greens with very rough tee boxes. I’m sure the drought made things worse, but just wanted to let people know. Fun course.

Absolutely horrible. I would have left a zero star rating if it were possible.

Fairways (if you can call them that) looked like they hadn't been watered in years and were hard as a rock - might as well hit your ball off the cart path. It was difficult to even find grass on the majority of the fairways - most of the time you were just hitting off of hard dirt or very dead grass. Several of the ladies tee boxes were nothing but sand and hay. Even the greens had dead patches and were clumpy on some holes.

The only reason we even finished all 18 holes was because we had paid $60 per person. I've paid a third of the price elsewhere for way better conditions - I would never return to this place. Stay away!

We picked this course on the recommendation of of one of the guys in our group who had played it years ago, and on our way away for the weekend.

Sorry to say the course is in terrible shape and not worth the $ spent. Carts are in a state of disrepair, and it looks like all they do is cut the grass on the course - nothing else. Bunkers were horrendous, and the greens which had been aerated, but barely top-dressed were impossible to put on.

Stay away, and use your money elsewhere!

I’d rather not play golf than come here again. It’s close to my house so I guess that’s the biggest benefit but other than that, it’s just a terrible course.

For starters, nothing is maintained to any sort of consistency. Some holes are playable some holes are not, some holes have crab grass on there boxes some holes have lush grass on the tee box (that isn’t cut by the way).

The greens are hit or miss with almost no sort of rhyme or reason as to how they maintain them. The fairways are mostly 2/5 with the occasional attempt at maintaining a golf course.

The tee boxes are almost all off centered or not maintained in the slightest. Signage for the tee boxes are also very poor as to where you should be hitting from without hiking up to a tee box only to discovered that starting positions are changed for that day.

I’ve been coming here for about 2 years now and at the beginning of the season I saw a glimmer of hope, but that quickly faded and I won’t be coming back.

The practice areas are even terrible. The practice sand is ground up gravel, the “tee boxes” are weird sort of mats and when you can hit off the actual ground it is dirt or grass patches that are in even and you cannot get a decent lie to save your life.

Staff is also pretty clueless. I asked for a large bucket for the practice area. He says we only have one size so I say okay cool I’ll take it. I put my coin in and out comes half a bucket. So apparently, you do have more than one size, but you only have one token. Noted.

Used some of my golf now points for my wife and I to get in an afternoon round as this place is close to home. Got there, checked in and was given a key to get a cart - there were no carts. They eventually got us one. Teed off on first hole and immediately we were backed up. Able to join up with a single in front of us(as nobody was letting her play through) which made it more tolerable. Got to the 6th hole and there is a foursome that appeared out of nowhere. They told us they were in a league and they had shotgun starts on all holes now. Nobody told us that when we checked in otherwise we would not have played. This course is a mess, not just its condition but the way it is managed as well. No more of my hard earned money is going here.

it’s like they have no maintenance staff or superintendent who knows what they’re doing. tee boxes were horrendous. greens were horrendous. pace of play was awful. they had 2-3 high school teams out there practicing, league night play, kids first tee program along with the regular golf play all at once. poorly ran and managed. do not recommend at all

This course has gone downhill since I last played it a few years ago. Several of the green-side bunkers appeared to not have been touched in quite a while. Several greens had rather large 1"-2" deep holes in them about the size of a dollar bill. Water had a lot of algae in it. Goose poop everywhere, not to mention we saw about 10 groundhogs throughout the 18 holes. Price was on the cheaper side, and it shows why.

Always enjoy playing here. Wish others would fix their ball marks! The water on holes 15, 16, 17 and 18 always give me issues! Easy going staff.

everything is good. play 18 hole I can't fine public water. It starting summer, golfer need water.

Sadly, only played four holes due to a severe storm that rolled in. Liked what I saw and hope to go back at some point, as it's 90 minutes from home...but not racing back.

Was traveling through and found the course on the web and later Golf Pass. Got a "Hot Deal."

GP gave me credit for holes not played for a future round.

I don't think from what I played it's worth the full rate I was told on the phone, but it was a Sunday.

Clubhouse is very average.. Staff was friendly when I arrived, but not so much on the phone.

Course can be narrow in spots, and it plays through a community of nice homes.

Fairways were good. Tee boxes were not bad. Greens were slow but rolled nice. Breaks could be tricky.

Biggest complaint were the gnats... terrible. They haunted you unless you were in a cart. Goose mess was so bad on fourth fareway (pond) I cleaned and placed to a spot I could stand and hit without having the mess fly in my face.

Range was a good deal, Grass and turf...$5 for 40 balls. A nice stretch.

Overall...7.5 of 10.

Nice course. A bit if a country club wanna-be. Reminded me of a few Florida courses I've played.
