Hills of Cove Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Operated by the city of Copperas Cove, Hills of Cove is a recently expanded 18-hole track that winds through the rolling hills northeast of town. Playing almost 6,300 yards from the tips to a par 71, the design features five challenging par 3s that range from 130 to 230 yards.
The original nine opened in 1972–and its flat, basic layout is a bit outdated but easy for the average golfer and a great way to start a full round. The newer back is more modern, featuring more hills, numerous blind shots, and multi-level greens.
Hole 18 is the feature hole, playing 420 yards and loaded with trees–it’s particularly challenging without a solid drive. Long approaches are difficult because the green is protected on the left by a bunker.
Also note that the course has a full-service pro shop and lighted driving range.
Getting there : From Hwy. 190 west, drive into Copperas Cove and stay in the far right lane. Turn right at the Wal-Mart and McDonalds and follow this road to the first stoplight. Turn right, then make a right again on Golf Course Rd. When you come to the first street on the left, turn into the parking lot.

Great layout, greens need some serious attention.
Have played this course many times, and absolutely love it. However the greens are in terrible condition. Hope they get this problem resolved soon. :(
Would have been nice if green were atleast ok.
The staff was very friendly and the course was in decent shape. The greens were in terrible shape. There was barely any grass on the greens. Apperently they had some weed issues, and ended up killing a lot of the grass.
This course lacks some of the basic upkeep you expect from a golf course.
This is a decent course for a beginner to go and learn to play the game. The fairways are wide open for the most part and you really have to try to lose a golf ball. The greens are pretty shotty. Last time I played here, there were weeds growing up out of the the first two or three greens. The price is right for this course, so I guess you get what you pay for. Overall it's a fun course to play and it's never too packed.
