Forest Park Golf Course - Hawthorne

I like challenges but stupidity is another thing. A city park course with long rough- gee I wonder if play will be slow? Long rough and divots galore. If you are gonna play here plan on a long wait unless your tee time is early. We played Dogwood and it was better but when people are two feet off the fairway and looking for their ball, you've got issues.

Played 9 on a Saturday. Aside from the clueless threesome in front of us that we had to ask to play through (a dad with two 10-12 year olds who've obviously never played before and have zero knowledge of golf etiquette - one set of clubs for both boys, driving within a foot of greens, taking 6-7 practice swings before hitting the ball three feet, throwing clubs... ) it was great. Course in nice shape. Greens not bad for the time of year. Fairways close to perfect and roughs nice and thick. Traps can use some work but they're always kinda bad at all three FP course. Once we passed the slow players it was pith sailing. Very nice!

Really enjoyed the round. Greens were just aerated so putting was not very fun but that will change. Three different sets of 9-s make for a unique experience.. One very flat, another built into the hills, with the 3rd a mix of the two. Shorter course in general. If your driver is on, you'll have a lot of driver/pw or driver/9i shots to the green. Overall a good round that moved VERY fast. Just get there before 4:00 when the leagues go off.

This was a decent little track. It's about 6,000 yards with lots of contours, depending on which nine you play. Excellent views of the city.

This review is for the Highlands at Forest Park.

Staff is friendly. The view of Barnes Hospital and surrounding buildings on holes 4-6 is amazing! The course is fun to play...not too hard...not too easy. There are no water hazards. Elevation is mainly flat. Course includes 1 par 5, 5 par 4s and 3 par 3s. Par is 34. They have a driving range and a place to practice chipping.

Forest Park is a nice city course. Slow play is expected here. The greens usally look like the landing area at a bombing range.Would somone please issue these golfers a divot tool.Club house staff is the best in the area.These guys do not know the word NO.

9 hole course in very good condition. Have to make accurate shots, some hazards. Will return in future.

Staff was super friendly!!! Will be returning, great course for the price.

Very nice course for a day out. Views of art hill are perfect setting

Love how close to home I can play for cheap. However they need to make sure they keep water coolers full on course

The first time I played this course I was blown away by how well maintained and fun it was. Additional visits have been equally impressive.

Very nice condition, pace of play was good, everthing went fine.

I hadn't played this course since it was Triple A golf and tennis. The re-do is nice - the flavor of the course was kept. Enjoyable Sunday morning.

This is a pretty easy course that doesn't have very many hazards. Very good for beginners and anyone looking to just go out and have a good round.

I like this course, tried to play it on Saturday morning and it was WAY OVERBOOKED. I know Saturdays are busy for most courses but this was ridiculous. I booked 18, played about 6 and left. Will never do that again!

Played this course many times ,Always a good time. Forest Park is amazing . Three total different nines gives you a chance to work on your game. Parking can be a problem get there early. Nice putting green. The guys in the clubhouse treat you like a friend unlike tapawingo(where I played the week before) where they treat you like a annoyance. Good public course for the money.

This was THE WORST experience I've had when booking through Golf Now. The reservation was handled with no problem, but the course was OVERBOOKED dramatically. We were nearly ONE HOUR late teeing off. Groups of 2, 3,five and even SIX ahead of us (YES< I SAID A SIXSOME). Ridiculous. . No marshalls. No starters. No staff in sight. The "range" area is the worst in St. Louis, and that says something, not allowed to hit off what little grass there is...and worse, the artificial surface "mat area" is pathetic. Our tee time was scheduled for 6:17 for NINE holes. We did not even finish because of darkness, only finished six holes. WIll never go back. Please take it off the list.

Centrally located, a really good deal for a challenging course, super friendly staff, restaurant has variety of food/drinks including beers on tap. Try the dry rub wings and chicken potstickers...so good.

The greens and the fairways were very well kept. The clubhouse is very nice with great food. The location was great for everyone in my foursome.

Front nine on redbud 3 hrs plus on a Sunday am no marshals monitoring pace of play played back nine in under 2 hours on Hawthorne no one in front of our us (2) ? Tees in awful shape greens ok rough already dead with all the rain we have had? Been 2 years since last played here ill wait two more!
