Hidden Lake Golf Club - Old Course

Great weather. Good company. Played with golfers around my age. 55 to 80 years old. Friendly game.

Upon arrival the proshop attendant told me “we really packed the tee sheet so expect a slog”. If you love waiting around every tee box, this place seems to make it their business to create slow play

As this is a club links course, I expected a lot more for what we paid. The conditions were OK, but from the whites it was only 5500 yards. Also, charging over $50 for a golf cart with no GPS or Bluetooth stereo, is a little outrageous. There are plenty of public golf course courses that charge a lot less for the cart and are fully decked out. The staff, however, were all very professional and very friendly.

If you are a decent golfer and have a foursome of decent golfers you can make this your weekly spot.

It has its niche spots, the hills in the fairway make it so you are not always landing in the same spot. The greens were moving pretty decently.

The downside is that it is easy to be backed up with several blind shots. Additionally with the holes so close to each other you have to watch for stray balls.

During my round we all had our ups and downs. Not too many lost balls or finding ourselves in fairway divots. The pace of play was on the slower side even for a saturday. We at one point have 5 different groups on the same hole...2 were from other holes.

As I said in the beginning this is great if you have a regular group that all know how to play. I am not sure if I would bring less experienced people due to the layout and I think more experienced golfers might find it a bit on the shorter side.

Good day. Good company pick up with decent golfers.

Expensive cart fees, over $25 pp, no sausages or hot dogs at clubhouse. Really, this is a clublink course, but grill cheese sandwiches are $22?!?!?

Greens crew take a bow great shape for the amount of play this facility gets.

Pace of play was good

My friend and I played 9 holes yesterday at Hidden Lake old and I was disappointed how rudely the staff member said a golf shirt is mandatory. There is a nice way to ask this. Not sure if I will be back.
