Lincoln Hills - Orchard

It was just ok. Not worth $70 on a Sunday. There was a lot of goose droppings on the greens. They need to have maintenance post a mechanical/fake coyote to keep them away to prevent it. There were three tee boxes set up right behind large trees. Many of the surrounding grass around fairways and greens needed to be cut back. Lot of branches on greens and fairways. Lack of markings to indicate water hazards on back nine.

Otherwise tidy tee boxes and cart paths. Decent greens and a challenging course but wind was responsible for much of that. May return if rates come down some.

Fun Course

Had a great time playing. Overall course was in good condition. Greens were rolling pretty true and the fairway was in good condition overall. Only negative is some of the long green to next tee distances.

Great course

The course was great, but I wish the Marshall drove around. The ppl playing behind us kept hitting the ball even before we cleared out and it came within a few yards of us. Not cool. This happened for nearly half a round

Poor Experience

This course was in the worst condition of any golf course I’ve played in years. All golf courses should be in good shape in April after ideal climate conditions. This was embarrassing. I had a guest who told me he never wanted to play the course again. We were going to buy a home on the 14th fairway and after playing the course we withdrew our offer after I finished the round. Also, to have cart paths only is a joke. .

Outstanding

I’ve played this course many times and I’ve always enjoyed the layout but today it was exceptional with the way the staff from Chris in the pro shop to Paul at the driving range to the car staff. It’s absolutely outstanding one of the best experiences I’ve had Course was in good shape and I really enjoyed it. Highly recommend this course.

Pin positions are horribly placed

On a beautify Friday morning I played some buddies. The greenskeeper has gotten extremely lazy. On May holds the pin positions were surrounded by 15-20 old pin positions so no matter where you were on the green, you were putting over circular potholes.

We looked at many of the greens and most if not all had plenty of viable options for a pin placement that wasn’t surrounded by a bunch of potholes that looked like the moon craters.

For $70, it was a rip.

Lincoln Hills in good shape!

I'm a former annual member of Lincoln Hills. The course is in very good shape. The green fees can be high, but I got a discounted rate on Golf Now. The Orchard side is fun, and on this foggy Tuesday morning no one else was out

Championship courses with no bev cart on a Sunday

This facility has 2 championships layout courses, the round was more than $80 to play on a Sunday, and there was no beverage/snack cart on either course. When we called to ask if there was a cart, they were incredibly rude and dismissive. This was a larger issue as they also didn't have any water available on course. It's a 5+ hour round with no on course amenities while paying a premium price. I will not be coming back!

What Happened?

I used to really enjoy this course. I don't think that I had been there for a year or more before our recent round. Course conditions are awful. It's overgrown, the fairways are covered in weeds. I'm it sure what happened or why they stopped taking care of this golf course, it's a real shame.
