The Lincoln Hills Golf Club - Hills Course

This was the second time I have played here. In both experiences the starter was very flustered, and overly demanding. In both cases I was more than 10 minutes before my tee time…yet he introduce unnecessary anxiety and stress but demanding I hurry up and tee off yet 10-15 minutes before my reserved tee time. In one case he wanted me to hurry up and tee off in the middle of the group on the 1st tee so I could catch up with threesome already playing the second hole. This was 10 minutes before my tee time… great course…but not for $80 rounds with this. I play to relax and relieve stress and tension…not to compound it!!!

This retirement community think that they run the entire course. This is a edgy, controlling and pushy retirement community. They want you to let them pass, they want you to do exactly what they say, and if you don't listen they do little things that can throw you off your game. You want to try to remain professional and respectful but this community wants you to be a jerk. So I gave it to them and complained to the staff about the groups ahead of me and behind me what they were doing. The staff knows all too well the people that do this type of harassment on their golf course. Because when I called in the staff were just saying I know exactly who they are. So this is a cycle that goes on, on this golf course and it makes it not enjoyable to be there. Lincoln Hills could be making more money if they can start to penalize the people that are causing them to lose qualified golfers and paying customers.

I haven’t played the hills course in many years 2004 2005? I believe there was only one course at the time. I feels like some of the orchard was part of the original hills, but I’m not sure of the history. I’ve played the orchard course a few times since we moved back two years ago, this was the first time I played the hills. Of course a lot of fun. Seems a few strokes easier as many funky holes for carries around a father daughter. Can’t wait to try again.

Good - Fast greens, decent fairways, and challenging rough.

Ok - layout on Hills Side had some fun holes and others seemed repeated.

Bad - Staff

From Proshop to Starter, and to the Manager. No customer service. The Starter box was a mess. One guy is running two starter boxes and whatever is translating on his iPad is incorrect. I had to convince him with a reseat that I paid for 18 and not 9 as he was claiming. He waiting til I tee’d off the first hole, then ran over and told me I had to share a cart or pay $20 more dollars at the Proshop. I asked him if he could get someone else as my party already drove to the green. He then called his manager to tell her what I asked and she said to him, too bad, tell him to come up and pay $20. They can keep that old dusty Lincoln Hills community. I’m not going back.

The course layout is good but conditions of tee boxes could be quite better (actually need mowing) and the greens are still in mediocre shape even post aeration. The greens have been inconsistent for some time and I’m not sure if that is the type of grass of the actual agronomy. The course looked like it was preparing for some heat upcoming as the growth is a little bit long in the fairways. The layout is still fun but overall could be an even better value.

WEATHER GREAT, PACE COMFORTABLE AND FAST, 4 HR ROUND. WISH SCORE WERE BETTER BUT NEED TO IMPROVE SKILLS. THANK YOU, ALAN

I still, and as always, wish they had a snack shack available. 2 courses back to back with the clubhouse only accessible at check in, and full meals at that. This is all they are missing. Bring Your Own!

Enjoyed course again - but 4.5 hours on a

Wednesday was too much - no Marshall anywhere - more concerned to have a starter

Weak amenities- good green’s except for 18 which is overdue for a facelift

Course is always in fabulous shape. The replay for $20 is an incredible deal

Great course. I will be back. Really well designed and challenging but fair. You can hit driver. Big rolling and challenging greems.

After all this rainy weather it was great to play a course that was dry and in great condition.

We played at 11:10 on 3/16. Usually, even during frost delay we start on time. When we arrive, we were told they were 15 behind. Once we tee’d off the started came to the first tee as we were taking off and start that there was going to be a backup on the next few holes and recommended us to play slow and take out time. Evidently, the was a shotgun tournament that started on the back and the from side teetimes were not reserved for them making the turn. Well the stack up cause a 5.5 hour round. Very disappointing golf with foursomes on the same hole. Once I arrived on #2, I wish I would have existed and ask for a refund. The good news is that I’ve never experience that over all the rounds I’ve ever played.
