Don't Let the Yardage Fool You
Been playing High Bridge since its founding. Never get board of the course. Greens are always in good shape. Course lay-out keeps you on your toes. Many first timers see the yardage and play back tees, but there are some long carries and big holes from the back. Yardage is influenced by a couple of shorter par threes. It's a course that makes you hit a lot of clubs in your bag. It requires accuracy and sound iron play. Staff is great. Welcoming and helpful.
Gone down hill
Always looked forward to playing here a couple times a year but it’s in pretty rough shape. The staff was great and the starter took care of me and put me in position to play a 3.5 round. The course itself was just beat up. A lot of the tee boxes barely seemed mowed and there were just tons of divots and ball marks. The greens were also aerated which was a completely surprise up until we got to the 1st green. There was an excessive amount of sand on the greens making them basically unputtable. Round should have been half the price. The restaurant / bar was also just randomly closed.
Excellent Value for Your Money
One of the best public courses around. Links style course is challenging but scoreable provided you keep the ball in play. Fairways and greens are in very good shape. Staff is always courteous and friendly. Service is good and the food is tasty. One of my favorite courses and drive in from PA often to play a round.
Hard deal
Book a hot deal, glad I did. The greens were punched and the fairways are kind of chewed up. Decent layout, fun course nice little bar in the clubhouse too.
Excellent layout
Only major deficiency was terrible condition of the sand traps. Lots of casual water in them and those without water had lots of rocks. I only had to hit out of 2 but it is something that was quite obvious.
Would definitely play again.
Class Act
Course is in great shape, greens are cherry. Staff is best in class!!! Play this course!!!!
Now we’re retired
My wife and I recently retired, so we play during the week, not on weekends. Unfortunately, some people act like weekdays are for leisurely walks and chitchat. The group two groups ahead of us was slow as molasses running uphill in February. We constantly caught up with the group in front of us on the tee waiting for the slowpokes in front of them to hit their second shot and get off the fairway. Nice course but need more action by the rangers.
So close!!!
Pace of play not amazing, staff always friendly and accommodating. Bunkers are iffy “rocks” clean that up get a ranger out there, course is a HR.
Been 4 years since playing HBHGC
Last time at High Bridge Hills was March 2022.
The greens were EXCELLENT for a public facility.
The fairways were in decent shape considering the excessive rain and high temps earlier in July and August.
Some Tee boxes were in need of care, but based on the play the course receives, quite understandable.
Staff was very accommodating and helpful.
Target golf at its best with high rough and numerous elevation challenges. Our 2some played in 3 hours despite losing about 4 balls from off line shots.
Will definitely return in the near future
Used to be great
This course used to be one of my favorites. Played yesterday because I had a free round thanks to Golf Now. The course layout is still one of my favorites but they've really let the course go. The tee boxes had high grass, fairways were chewed up and brown and greens were all patchy. Oh and the 11th hole was closed. Really a shame.
New favorite
Third time playing here. In great shape despite the recent rain. Tough due to the changes in elevation. Nice 19th hole with good food, try the wings.
Great layout
I have played this course a few times a year. Not sure what happened to the fairways but there were bare spots in most of the fairways. Looks like there is some kind of fungus. Fescue was up and lots of it. Makes the course hard and a great look. Will be back again.
Unusually Poor Condition
I've played this course numerous times over the last 5-8 years, and drive an hour+ to do so because I enjoy the layout, the condition, pace of play, etc.
For whatever reason, the course condition right now is the worst I have ever seen it. Patchy dead grass throughout the fairways, tee boxes are a mess, and you cannot play out of the bunkers without safety eyewear (because there's no "sand" [dirt] at all and the bottom is just covered with small rocks).
Is it under new management or something, because it's in very poor shape compared to previous years. Even when it's been very hot and dry in the past, it's never been this bad.
I hope it bounces back soon, or I may just have to stop making the effort to play at HBH.
Used to be great
Course conditions ar e terrible…..outside if greens every fairway is mostly full of brown patches..sas
