The Gold Course from Greg Mastriona Golf Courses at Hyland Hills is the only 18-hole course at the facility. Designed by Frank Hummel, the course opened in 1959 and used to include the 9 holes of the Blue Course as the front nine. Currently however, both the Gold and the Blue are separate courses. The landscape of the Gold is hilly and seven ponds create a beautiful atmosphere while also adding challenging water hazards to eleven holes. Although the entire course is scenic, the 12th hole is considered to have the most picturesque views. Its elevated tee offers gorgeous vistas of the majestic Rocky Mountains. Greg Mastriona Golf Courses at Hyland Hills is known not only for its gorgeous scenery, it has also received acclaim from golf publications such as Golf Digest.

pace of play

Had to wait on the last eight tee boxes for a while each time. Very aggravating to watch people play like they are the only ones there.

Also lost a few balls when we encountered some extremely long rough on a few holes where the shots were in play.

Great Layout … but that’s about it

The course has many fun holes… but the course is in terrible shape. Dead grass everywhere, and last two times I played it was 2:45 nines. They need rangers to speed it up.

Will say the facility is very nice. Great restaurant and practice facility

Pace of Play

Our front nine was great. Finished in under 2 hours.

They put out a group event on the back nine which we caught up to and the pace came to a grinding halt. The group that was two ahead of us were EXTREMELY slow.

Confused

This has to potential to be a great golf course. The problem is it is managed so poorly that you have to question about playing there. I personally feel that the people in the upper management only care about how much money they bring in and not about the golfer.

They use the course as if it is there private club and don't care about the every day golf.

This course used to be ranked as one of the top 100 coursed in the U.S.. Not even close anymore.

Hyland Hills Gold Course (8/22/2023)

Course was in great shape. Staff very friendly and helpful. Divot mix containers at tee boxes needed some more divot mix. Too many patrons not filling in their divots on the tee boxes. Staff should emphasize this when they check in.

Great course for the price

It needs a little attention however it's a great track. The greens are dented like no other but for less than 75$ it's a deal

Setting tee times

Trying to set a morning tee times seven day in advance is impossible! I got online at 11:59 PM and couldn’t get a teatime till 1230 as soon as the portal opened up seven days in advance? This is absolutely ridiculous and not sure I will play Highlands Hills next year if this continues!!

Golf Cart Sharing

Had to share cart with a stranger. During the round we came across a group of four people with three carts and only two of them were playing golf! I asked if they paid extra for the carts and they said no! I found that very disgusting! I'm very upset about this cart situation and why the rules do not apply to everyone! I will not be playing golf here because I used to get my own cart when playing as a single.

Nice change

I normally play my home course in Arvada, CO, Hyland is about 20 minutes from my house. It was a good change up, different look and feel. Playing from the Blue tees presented a good challenge and the rough was long which added to that. Only concern was the amount of dry spots and dead area around the course. With the wet spring I was surprised that the conditions of the course were not better, and like I said the rough was a little long and mowing left an excess amount of grass clumps in the rough which lead to slow play looking for balls and even some some balls.
