Length 6651 yards

Rating 72.3

Willow Glen is one of two 18-hole championship courses at Singing Hills Golf Club, which also boasts a 9-hole, par-3 course. Nestled in a valley between lush hillsides, the golf courses all offer stunning mountain views. The mountains also help to block the wind, which allows for more agreeable playing conditions. Willow Glen is slightly more challenging than the other championship course due to a hillier terrain and more fairways that are tightly lined with mature pines, oaks, and cottonwoods. The trees shape the landing zones and add definition to the doglegs. Proper placement off the tees is necessary for doing well on this course. Contoured mounding borders the greensides as well as more than 40 bunkers. Water also comes into play on six holes. The 11th through the 15th holes are an impressive stretch that presents a variety of challenges as well as unrivaled scenery.

Fun Course

Overall, a fun course with a good layout that will challenge you with different shots. Greens were in great shape. Loved the early morning tee time as the pace of play was great!

Mediocre Golf Course

We played Willow Glen. This is a bare bones golf course. There was a bag drop but no one to man the bag drop. When I checked in the woman asked if I used tee-off and then basically snubbed at it. There was no help in where to go, where restrooms were, putting or chipping areas. Driving range is off mats. (Not included) The putting green, very slow, was not anything like the greens on the golf course. We asked to change carts because ours squealed so loud. The guy in the pro-shop was pretty unfriendly. The course was in OK condition. I would recommend spending money and playing somewhere else. There are much better courses with nicer people.

Not worth the drive or the money

Cant hit driver off several holes, its like a 3 iron course for the first 4 holes. Its a long car drive on crap roads to get to the course. The price is insane. So all that equals not worth it. Maybe oak glen is better, we'll see. Someday...

Great desert golfing amid rolling hills, blue skies

Challenging course, but very gratifying. Wish the creek had water, but many water hazards were loudly present. Some hills to negotiate, signs arose about possible bee hive hazard and two holes with snake sightings.

Nice course but had a few issues

This was our first time playing this course as we are from out of state. We got a great deal ($50) a person so we gave it a try. Course condition was good but pace of play was horrible. Waited 5-10 minutes on every hole. Driving range was turf and had no place to hit a driver. Several driving range boxes were missing the turf tees so you were unable to warm up with driver. I overheard some regulars stating they bought their own since they were always missing. Will try a new course next time in town

Course is in good shape

Course is in good shape although greens are pretty slow. Seemed like more drunk hacks than usual and didn’t see any Marshall’s which probably had to do with the slow pace of play, but what are you gonna do

Nice course but over-priced

The course layout was nice and the tee boxes, fairways and greens were in good shape. The pace of play was very slow, sometimes up to three groups waiting on a tee box. For the high price tag, I would expect better pace of play.

Solid Course

This course is nice, there was nobody there on the Sunday afternoon that I played. Very walkable, only hill is between 2 and 3 or 3 and 4, I forget which, but after that it’s flat. Greens were pretty slow so bring your sledgehammer.

Singing Hills is a must play!

If you haven't played Singing Hills in awhile like me, you're really missing out. The fairways and greens are in great condition.
