Heritage Hills Golf Club, conveniently located just minutes from downtown Barrie, has an interesting layout that features a combination of wide open, links-style holes and holes framed by mature forest. Although there are numerous strategically placed bunkers and swales, there are also generous landing areas that make it accessible to players of all skill levels. Willow Creek winds through the hilly landscape, offering beautiful scenery. Heritage Hills Golf Club’s greens are large and undulating, and there is the occasional double-tiered green. Although there is only one distinct water hazard, which is on the 12th, the course requires many demanding carries over the creek. Heritage Hills also offers a grass range with target greens and a practice putting green for golfers to use.

Challenging design but poor conditions

Was expecting a lot more from this golf course considering their regular rate to play isn't low by any means.

The course design is good and challenging for all levels of play but the conditions were very poor. Tee boxes not even close to level. It feels like your hitting above below the ball with your feet scrambled every hit. Also, there is no grass to hit from? The tees were like they were balding.... No grass to hit on.

Fairways were in decent playing conditions and I will give them a thumbs up on the greens. There were extremely soft but still managed to play relatively fast while they maintained in fairly good condition.

The pace of play also was not to be enjoyed. The Marshall was around once all round(good and bad lol). 95 percent of shots you would have to wait and wait to take due to course back up. There was no one starting the course so everyone was playing right up behind each other. I will fall in love with courses when they space out their tee times and stick to them. Makes for a much better round.
People looking for the balls in the woods for excessive periods over and over causing back ups. If the ball finds the woods it probably wants to stay there.

Overall I think this course needs some serious greens keeping overhaul to make this a desirable place to play over and over. With the design I think this would be a great course. I've played courses for 30 dollars in much better condition.

This is the best overall value in Barrie and surrounding areas. If had the length and just enough challenges. Greens are modest and nothing too tricky. No clubhouse but who cares when you are there just to golf.

Course was a bit sloppy but we have had a lot of recent rain...Sand traps were under water.
For the conditions and the lack of facilities, it is a little over priced.

Pricing and Conditions

I became quite disappointed from the moment that I entered the club house. I booked a round on Golf Now.
$ 15.00 was taken immediately off of my credit card.
Golf Now's site showed that there was a balance of $ 110 left to pay at the course.
We booked a threesome and wanted to each hit a small bucket of ball.
A small bucket of balls cost $ 5.00 ( tax included )
I thought that I would be owing $ 125.00 in total.

To my surprise, I was told that the balance was $ 140.00

An extra $ 15.00

When I questioned the lad at the front desk, he told me that taxes were owed on the Green Fees.

I have booked with Golf Now for several years and I have booked under these circumstances before

The balance owing shown on the Golf Now website has always been the final balance.

Very disappointed in their handling of the transaction.

As far as the course goes, the Greens on the front nine were in very good shape.

The greens on the back were not as good. Putting through small ruts which caused the ball to go off line.

The 15th fairway was like hitting off concrete.

I live local to this course and have played this course many times. This was the worst condition that I have seen the greens on the back nine.

The price that they are asking is far too high for the present conditions.

We're sorry to hear there was some confusion with the bill. We have changed up the billing process and this is the first year we have done it. You pay 5% of the greens fee online, the other 95% and tax are both due at the course. With the extra fee of the range balls, the total was most likely accurate. Sorry for the confusion! We hope you come back again, please email me directly with any questions.

Diversity

The difference between the two nines make the course. The greens are large and some you have to place your approach shot in a certain area. Some of the greens are fairly flat and the rest are very well contoured. A challenge for sure. The course is a combination of the old and classic course combined with links style. The wind has a great influence on play and bunkers are placed in strategic locations. The designers have taken a tip from the PGA and have made a risk and reward par 4 that is reachable with your tee shot.
AN EXPERIENCE WELL WORTH THE GREAT DEAL.
Thank you Jay(head pro) for the great game!

Great track, front nine is definitely way tougher than the back. The lack of club house is a bit of a detriment but staff and cost make up for it.

Greens and fairway were in great shape, nasty rough greens were a bit slow but really challenging.

Good value

Nice greens. Rolled true with great, but not crazy, shelves and breaks.
Was not draining well after a couple of days of good rain but didn't impact too many shots other than fairway roll.
Good value, will play there again.

Good Hot Deal.

Greens were in great shape. Great deal for $30 with cart. Lack of a proper club house may disappoint some, but the golf course is good. Tight front, open back. First timer with no local knowledge can navigate the course with little problem.

Hidden gem

I've played this course a few times now. Regular price is a little expensive but I got a great deal on Golf Now. Still waiting for them to get a real clubhouse but the course is excellent. Better than some other courses in the area but not too challenging for the average golfer.

Enjoyable Afternoon w/Wife

Wanted to take my wife to a course that wasn't high pressure and where we could golf as a twosome. Jason in pro shop was very helpful and very friendly -- indicated that a twosome was fine. Booked tee time online and got the best rate. However, when we went to tee-off the starter pushed the next twosome together with our 2 and indicated that things were backing up -- which was utter nonsense. When we finished the first hole, no one was even on the starting tee -- so we split into twosomes again. Never saw a golfer behind us until the 9th hole when things were back up ahead of us causing us all to slow down. We waited for people ahead the entire back nine, but never had anyone pushing us from behind. Not sure why the starter forced us to join together. Other than that, it was a nice afternoon -- finished in just under 4-1/2 hours. Greens were in good condition with some nice undulation so the putts were all a bit challenging without being ridiculous. Great value for money.

Poor Conditioning

Booked this course last minute after reading some positive reviews. The course was not in good shape at all. Spotty rough, fairways and tees. The greens were in good condition although slow. 4 hours and 25 minutes to play. It definitely was not worth the price of admission. There are some MUCH better options out there in this price range!
