Forest Park Golf Course - Hawthorne

When I get a chance to play any of the golf courses at Forest Park for a good rate I'm pleased. I usually play cheaper courses. These courses are beautifully designed and well maintained.

Great winter weather, lucky space in the winter cold to get out and play. Watched an old guy pop his cherry with a hole in one on the 8th hole of the Dogwood course.

Given that it is late in the season and Forest Park receives a significant amount of play, this course remains in fabulous condition. The tee boxes and fairways had few divots and the greens overall had minimal ball marks. My only complaint would be the greens had sand on them because they are getting ready to aerate them this week.

Forest Park remains one of the most underrated courses in St. Louis and is a great place to play.

Course has a pretty dope vibe. Good mix of technical and forgiving holes. When I played greens were pretty forgiving and average condition.

I enjoyed the round. The pace of play was perfect for the day. I'll be back.

Beautiful weather and good course conditions made for a nice day of golf. Play was slow as they do not pair-up players enough on the course. Course conditions were VG considering this is a frequently visite city track. I enjoy playing this once a year and would be disappointed if this was my home course. A you can slip in a round here and have fun.

I always assumed that this course would be run down like every thing else in the city, boy was I wrong! This is one of the nicest courses in the St. Louis area. Definitely put it on your use play list for this year

The course itself is nice enough and challenging, but because it's in Forest Park there are people EVERYWHERE. We had people walk across the fairway in front of us at least a dozen times and there was an annoying drone overhead for 3 or 4 holes plus the whole course is really loud with the traffic congestion.

Underrated course in St. Louis. Above average conditions for courses in St. Louis, especially given the amount of play this course gets. Course is very fun to play with a different flavor on each nine. The only thing this course could benefit from is a starter or on-course ranger to encourage faster play.

I learned to play on this course. This is the first time I played on it after the redesign. I can not wait to play it in the summer when the trees are green and the fairways are green. Greens rolled very fair for early spring late winter conditions.

I live close to the park and play here all the time. Conditions could be better but it's a fun time.

I always enjoy playing golf at Forest Park. It's a beautiful area, nice course and an overall great experience.

This was my first time on this track. This is a fun layout and really something that a lot of folks can enjoy. The greens were a little wooly, but its mid-November so its hard to complain about the greens. The layout is nice and friendly. We played the Hawthorn 9 and it was pleasant. The fairways were excellent, and the 9th hole is beautiful. I will be back to play a full 18 next time, and maybe 27 who knows!

The course layout is good and the conditions are good. The real treat of this golf course is the constant availability of scenic views. Start with the lush forests and beautiful trees, follow that with beautiful ponds and lakes. If that isn't enough there are portraits of the St. Louis Art Museum that are magnificent. Lastly a white tailed fox trotted across the fairway.

I played with local residents who knew lots of historical aspects of Forest Park and it made for a wonderful day of golf.

The course was in great condition and greens fees were very reasonable. I look forward to coming back again.

The course was in great shape. I enjoyed my round here!!

The course was in excellent condition and the staff was great. The course can be a little confusing if it is your fist time so make sure you are paying attention to the signs

Just wish we had a driving range to warm up with. Nothing fancy.

Anybody who's local has played this course before, probably a number of times. I've been playing it for 25 years and i have to say they are doing a great job with it. Ever since they did the renovation, 10-15 years ago, I always think the course is in good shape, ESPECIALLY considering what I have to believe is a huge amount of play. It seems they have a ton of tournaments here and just get a lot of players in general. The tee box conditions are very good, as are the fairways. I've played some higher-end local courses that are not in any better condition than Forest Park. The greens are also pretty good, again, especially considering the large amount of play they get. Dogwood and Redbud are the two 9's that incorporate quite a few of the "old" holes. I will say that, although it's in nice shape too, I'm not a huge fan of the Hawthorne 9, as it's a bit flat and straight but that's just my personal preference. Keep maintaining the course the same way please!!
