Always good.

Great course always in good shape. Course allows you to grip and rip most of the time. Great layout with a lot of different looks; links, woods, water, elevation changes, and bunkers.

Immaculate Condition, Municipal Experience

The course is a strange layout (reachable par 5, moderately long par 3 to start--2 par 5's in a row), but is always in perfect condition. There are no bad lies on this course, the greens always run true.

However, the staff makes the playing experience worse than one would expect at the city courses in Louisville (Cherokee, Seneca, ect). The grounds crew does not stop mowing/driving while players are hitting. The marshal stopped and took one of my balls while I was playing (on a par 5 that I went for in 2 and hit multiple shots at the green, one ended up long and near a cart path--I was on the green and hadn't gone to pick it up yet). The shop attendant charged me the regular rate, rather than the rate I had agreed to pay on GolfNow, and told me that I *had to* tee off 45 minutes prior to my tee time. And finally, the 19th hole feels more like a bar than a snack shop after about 3 pm.

I've played this course about a half dozen times, and I've always had a little trouble with the staff (one time they refused me range balls, when GolfNow states they are included with the tee-time; not having carts ready on a slow day), but the mere condition of the course is worth the drive and inconvenience caused by a staff not suited for a municipal course.

I have been playing at Heritage Hill for several years now and I have received nothing but excellence from the staff. From the moment I arrive at the course, I am welcomed at my car with a cart from one of their friendly cart attendants. In my experience, the pro shop staff has always been top notch. They are very accommodating and go out of their way to ensure everyone has a great time. Heritage Hill is still the best public course in the Louisville area and I will continue to play out there as much as I can!

This course offers fun and challenge.

The layout is interesting with moderate difficulty and plenty of elevation changes. The course is certainly not boring. Greens are tough with pin placements and offer many chances for 3 putts. Overall in great condition and fun for all levels of golfers.

Still the Best Golf in the Louisville Area

HH is still the best public course in the area, by a long shot. From tee to green the turf was in great shape. The pace of play was fantastic. As a foursome we let a twosome and threesome through, but after that we never had anyone waiting on us or had to wait on those in front of us and still finished in just over four hours. The staff was top notch as well, very friendly and helpful.

If you're whining about the price, then you shouldn't be out there anyway. Besides, no one wants to hear you complain.

Lower the price!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Green fee is outrageous for a public course. 60 dollars on the weekend. I play at country clubs for less, way less. Cut the green fees in half and I'll be out there every weekend. With these prices I'll continue to play there once a year. It's definitely a really nice course but the green fee is ridiculous.

I played HH once a couple years ago. The greens were gone. When I called for a tee time I asked how are the greens? The staff said they were great, only one green was burnt up. The price was double what it should have been, especially with the course in that condition. Probably should have been shut down to play entirely! This left me with such a bad reflection of the course and staff that I never went back. It will take a course manager with some Public Relations background to maximize this facility. Too many other courses around to compete with. From reading the other more recent posts a management change apparently has not happened. What a shame the course could be a fun place to golf if it were maintained, priced accordingly, and the staff knew what they were doing.

sounds like you need to go play a muni, try moving to california and playing on a weekend. $60 for one of the top 3 layouts in the state for a weekend is a good deal.

Love this course

Fairways and tees have come in very nicely, zoysia I believe. Considerable rain the week before made the course wet, but we only had to stay off 2 fairways. Greens were relatively slow due to wetness but were in good shape. Played lift / clean / place due to mud balls in fairway, but bunkers had been worked and were good to hit out of. Rough was cut a reasonable height and played fair but did affect difficulty of the shots from there. I like the track and always enjoy playing HH.

Escape from reality

Every hole at Heritage Hill comes with its own unique character. This course allows you to enjoy the freedom of golf. Groups are never stacked on top of one another as only a few holes run parallel to one another. This course has several "signature" holes for golfers to enjoy. I played many nice courses during my collegiate career, and I would put this one up against any of them. I highly recommend Heritage Hill!

Fantastic Track

Course was in really good shape for this early in the year. Very challenging with many sets of tees for all levels of play. Course layout is fantastic and many, many types of holes with none being similar. This course is very much worth playing if you ever get the chance. Will be playing again soon and many more times again in the future.

nice course, tough rough

the course was in really good condition. the greens were fairly fast and smoothing out after being aerated about a month ago. the rough was a little too deep for most amateurs including myself. hope to play therr again soon.

TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE

One of the few times I ventured away from my home course where I'm a member, this experience may have kept me from making the same mistake again! From the moment we teed off the was immediate concern about the log jam before we had hit our first shot. Our tee time was delayed for 30 minutes to start. Secondly as we stepped up too the tee box after being told we were on the tee over the loss speaker,I noticed there was a foursome in the fairway waiting on another foursome on the green. Right off the bat I noticed that groups weren't being correctly spaced for enjoyable pace of play. Regardless I took an easy going approach , hoping to see groups spread out over the front nine. That never happened. After a call to the club house (regarding the back up ) and 2hrs & 45 minutes we finished up on the 6th green. As I drove up to the club house to speak to the GM I noticed yet again 3 groups on the first hole bunched together yet another sign of over booking. I was given the explanation of it just being a nice day and a lot of people being out. That was clearly not the case........it was a simple case of over booking, that of course was denied by the GM of Heritage Hill. I asked for a refund due to the fact I didn't have 6 hrs to play a round of golf. I was told the only option was a rain check. I was not satisfied with this, why would I want to deal with the same poor playing conditions and obvious miss management??? How can I be told that groups were being sent off ten minutes at a time when there were 3 groups on the 1st hole before we teed off, three math doesn't add up. Sacrificing a players quality of play for stacking a tee sheet for profit is no way to manage a golf course. When there is 10-15 minutes between shots, that calls for revamping of tee time policies. A well run tee sheet should have a group tee off as the group ahead of them is on that hole's green allowing for proper group showing and a more enjoyable experience. It's absurd to ask players to play under those conditions our spend.6hrs attempting to finish a round of golf. I wouldn't recommend Heritage Hill where cramming as many tee times in takes priority over quality of play. Nor would I recommend a place where they refuse to refund your round, and they expect you to use a rain check to come back and experience the same log jam again!!!!! Don't waste your time
