Excellent Course for the money
Excellent Course for the money... There was a girls league or tournament walking in front of us that lead to the slow play. Like the course layout with some fun holes and greens.

Highly Recommended
This course and facility is in fantastic condition. The clubhouse and restaurant personnel were very friendly and respectful. This was my first experience with this course and I look forward to playing here again in the future. Thank you.
Hello, ctim4300. Thank you for your 5-star rating! Please book another round with us soon at Forest Hills Golf Club!
Get what you pay for.
Sure you get a nice discount on the afternoon round but just like a lot of other courses late morning they send their crews out blowing, mowing and trimming. Some do a better job at being courteos than others. This place really didn’t give us enough courtesy today.Not shutting equipment off, coming up cart paths while we we on the tee box, laying sod in front of tee box while we’re teeing off. I know this is a necessary evil but It just felt like for four holes they were stalking us. My buddy had a par round going but by the time we got away from them it was wrecked.
Hello u373523431. Thank you for taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass along your feedback to the staff so they can work to make changes. Thanks for visiting us!
Groundskeeper with a death wish
A great course in very good condition and reasonably priced. My only issue was as I was preparing to tee off on 12 a groundskeeper walked out 20 yards in front of the tee and started digging a hole. When I asked him to let me hit he completely ignored me and just stared at me. Rather than risk taking his head off I teed off from the ladies tees. Weird.

Fun Course
Tee boxes need some grass on a few. Greens had been punched about 2 weeks earlier. Not very fast greens. Water on only backside par 3. Very hilly back nine while front nine was not as hilly. Will be back

Walk where Bobby Jones walked
Fun course not far from the ANGC. There were some changes to the course a few years back and while I did prefer the old setup it is still a fabulous course. The greens were done a week or so prior to our round and still rolled good and true. Fairways in great shape. PLAY FROM THE TIPS!!!
Wow, we are so happy you enjoyed your round. Thanks so much for the 5-star rating! We look forward to seeing you again soon and thanks for choosing @ForestHillsGolfClub.

Aerated greens
I do like this course but I was told the greens were aerated two weeks ago but they were good to go now.....they were not good. I would say the greens right now are at best terrible. Bumpy, sandy some were much faster/slower than others. The pace was horrible. Waited at least 5 minutes on each shot! There was a group of 5 ahead of us. Not ok.
Hello. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are sorry to see that your overall experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope you'll give us another try in the near future. Thanks for playing Forest Hills.
Forest hills
Love the course. Greens recently aerated but rolled okay. Fairways in great shape. Recent rains resulted in reduced roll out but greens receptive. Played an additional 9. Pace of play was great.
Hi, Jad. We appreciate you leaving a review and rating us 4 stars. We will inform the entire team, so they know their hard work is paying off. We look forward to having you back @ForestHillsGolfClub!

Great price, great pace
The greens were recently aerated and were still relatively playable (The GolfNow booking indicated an aeration notification) so course conditions could not be rated at the highest level. Otherwise course conditions were very good. Very friendly greeting from the staff—we were allowed to start earlier than our tee time. Pace of play was outstanding—3 of us finishing in less than 3 hours. We had time to play an additional 9 holes for the price of the golf cart. Forecasted rain and recent maintenance on the greens probably kept others away—but we found everything perfect for our round. Very fair and playable layout—not many bunkers and only two water crossings (on par 3’s). In a few weeks the course should be in great shape—highly recommended
Thank you for taking the time to review us. We appreciate the 4 stars. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. @ForestHillsGolfClub thanks you!

nice course
My first visit to Forest Hills was enough to bring me back despite my bad score. The fairways are cut short so lots of roll and the only drawback to that is that the ball does not sit up well. I almost preferred the lie in the rough! I hit 4 or 5 bunkers and all of them seemed to have huge lips, quite a challenge for this duffer! The greens were nice with many undulations and tiers and also quite fast. I'll score better next time!

A Donald Ross original with some Augusta history
This is an older course that has been maintained fairly well. Built in 1926 by Donald Ross you can see the historic design features throughout the course - shorter than today's designs with placement as a critical element. Green are fairly easy to putt but chipping around the greens is a bit of a challenge. The course was redesigned by Palmer with only 13 holes remaining from the original.
There is history at the course as well. In 1930, Bobby Jones won the Southeastern Open on the course and went on later that year to win the Grand Slam. Perhaps the fond memories drew him back to the area to create Augusta National.
Hello, Jay. We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We hope to see you again in the future. Thanks for visiting Forest Hills.
Great Round at Forest Hills
Another good day playing at Forest Hills. The course is in good shape. Tee boxes need some attention after leveling last year they seem a bit beat up. Greens are fast, fast, fast. Had to wait on a few holes for slower group ahead, but round finished in exactly 4 hours.

Pace of play was very very slow. Waited on two groups in front of us every single hole. In desperate need of a ranger

Doesn’t seem like they’re interested in the pace of play. Waited on the group in front of us every single hole. No ranger on the course
