Still one of the better courses in the area.

In the high 90’s heat, it was still one of the better courses with friendly staff and the players. The design of the Hills course is better than the Orchard’s. Due to the COVID-19, there is lack of the adequate maintenance. One of the restroom smelled strong with the clogged toilet and there was no water in the water jug. Lack of the yardage markers and the directions for the next holes in some wooded paths make the plays delay. This was not the first time we played but we still got lost twice going to the next hole because there were no direction. Bunkers didn’t have much sand and some bunkers were so hard. Still a very good deal though.

Nice improvement

The greens had been punched recently but they were very playable. Fairways were ok.

Big improvement on bunker maintenance. Nice

Work!

Overall I’m impressed to see positive changes.

Thanks

Pleasant surprise

Hills course was in good shape, pace of play was good and pleasant to play.. Heat was the only negative factor for the day and that was not controlable.

Summer blues

Love this course and play it frequently. Like others in the area it is staring to get browned out patches across the 18. Thats to be expected around the area in summer. It’s still better than almost every other course around.

Greens are in good shape but I wish players would fix their ball marks. #FixYours&1 Other or more.

Disappointed in Course Condition

For a Del Webb Sun City Course, today the course was in poor condition. Lots of weeds, brown spots; dead grass, bugs. Disappointed - will not be returning anytime soon.

Course had great distances for an all-around golfer. It was very challenging on the greens which made it very good.

We played the Lincoln Hills side. We would to try the Orchard side. I played in 2001 when you guys had the 18 holes then.

Nice course

Course could use a little more grooming and the greens are slow and need work. I have not played it for years and remember it being in excellent shape.

Happy At The Hills

I always enjoy playing Both The Hills and The Orchard Courses at Sun City Lincoln Hills In Rocklin, California.

Each Course has its challenging holes but overall I like playing The Hills Course because of the Great View and scenery.

I will continue playing both these Courses as long as I play the Game!

Love The Hill

I always enjoy playing both Courses at Lincoln Hills especially The Hills Course. In the summertime I play mid afternoon and always complete my round between 3-3 1/2 hours which is a Great Pace of play.

A Hill of Fun at The Hills

I think The Hills Course is the prettier of the Two Courses at Lincoln Hills but I like both courses. It was a Hot Summer Day but course was in decent shape except for bunkers due to Covid and people need to repair their Ball Marks on Greens,
