Towne Lake Hills Golf Club
About
Carved from acres of wooded countryside in Woodstock, Towne Lake Hills Golf Club takes advantage of the rolling green hills. The dramatic elevation changes make it difficult to find an even lie anywhere on the course. Arthur Hills, the course's designer, incorporated a variety of challenges that makes each hole unique including a deft smattering of sand bunkers. The golf course depends as heavily on course management and strategy as it does on shot-making skills. It is a challenge to say the least, but it's fair. There are also four sets of tees that make it more approachable. One of the most memorable holes is the fifth. This par 5 presents an interesting risk-reward opportunity that will make you think. Towne Lake Hills G.C. boasts consistently good course conditions and idyllic scenery that make the round even more enjoyable.

Good Course
Enjoyed playing the course. Gives a good challenge but is playable for all skill levels.
Good course
Nice staff. Play was a little slow but it was Sunday Morning.
Solid Course
The greens have recovered 95% of the way from aeration so the holes are just cosmetic so the greens roll pretty smooth. The fairways are nice and fast while the rough is thick enough to make it a challenge. Overall the course is in good condition once threw areas under repair are fixed it will be in great condition
Towne Lake
This course was in fabulous condition. Richard and his staff have done a great job getting the greens into PGA type greens. If you have the chance, I highly recommend this course. It is relatively challenging but not overwhelming.
In great shape
Course is in great shape and playing very fair. Not a course for beginners. I rated the food only because the app wouldn't allow me to not rate it. I did not eat but there is a restaurant. I played at 1pm and got the hot deals rate. If you can play this course at that rate - play it!! Not sure what the standard rate is but it's probably worth it.
Fun day
Course was in really good shape Greens were a little slow. A lot of blind shots and a lot of up and down holes. Not my favorite course but its always in good condition. They would do well to spread tee times better with the blinds shots it tends to be a long round here.
Review
Greens were a bit slow. Several holes had blind shots and we're not well laid out. Not a big fan of this course but will play if other courses in area are not available.
Great Course
This was the second time I have played this course. We started off with a shower on the driving range, but then play started. This is a challenging and fun course and I would recommend it to anyone.
Great course
For the amount of play this course gets it's in very good shape. Greens are bent and rolling nice. The fairways are a 7/10. There is areas that need attention around the ruff. But overall great course!!
Looking good
It had been 13 months since I last played this course and it looked great. Greens were fantastic and fairways still coming in so should be great in a few weeks.
Overall good course
The course has three or four greens that are under repair because the grass on the collars of the greens apparently died from winter kill. Otherwise, the course is in pretty good shape.
Good Conditions
Shot my best round ever with a 75 so i cant complain too much. Great greens and pretty good fairways especially compared to the other courses in the area. A little pricey. would play here every time if they could get their price under $40.
great condition
Haven't played here in over a year, but it's still a great course. With the rain, the pace was slow. Lots of people trying to squeeze a round in before it came down hard. Regardless, course is in great condition.
All About Hitting Your Target Distance
Bring your Range Finder...It's all about hitting the ball to the correct position on this golf course. If you are in play you can GO LOW, if you dont control your golf ball you will spend a lot of time looking. Also appears to be a brutal course to walk...very spread out. Great Course for the Value. Perfect weather always helps!
Great lay out of the course
Had a good time, Course was in good shape for the time of year. Green were in great shape. Will play again.
Greens punched, no warning - tee time messed up also
I wish they had said that they had punched the greens recently. Had to have been within days, the greens were 2 putt greens and get out. Our tee time was 8:45 but teed off at 9:10 due to someone overbooking. Finished at 1:50. Staff was friendly and applogetic about the tee time mess up but the greens were really bad. Don't get me wrong, I know they have to punch the greens, but heck at least warn the players or take 10% off the fee or something before booking the time and taking the money.
Sad But True
Somewhat annoying to find a special starter on the first tee telling our foursome that there is a High School tournament 30 min. behind us so we will have to keep our pace of play up. Even more annoying to find out that the greens have been aerited only when we arrived at the first green. The beverage girl arrived on the third hole and then not until the sixteenth.
Now we were a foursome bumping up againsts a twosome so I think a half a dozen reminders to keep the pace of play up was an uneccessary annoyance.
The philosophy and the course needs work.
This course plays true to it's name
I enjoyed my round at Towne Lake Hills. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The greens had just been aerated so it was hard to judge them but the rest of the course was in good shape. Challenging but fair.
