Hilldale Golf Club

It’s a Robert Trent Jones Sr. layout which is very well thought out as u would expect, the day we played it the course and greens were in great shape. Now the area has had a good deal of rain not too much just a perfect mix. All the courses in the area are in great shape and this one is no exception. Go play it.

I haven’t played Hilldale in a few years and I remember why. Went there on a Monday and the entire round was close to 5 hours with the back 9 close to 3 hours itself. Course has a lot of bare spots without grass and bunkers are very inconsistent with some areas with no sand.

Tough design, but brat at turn was $8.5 so -1 point. We were paired w random beginners, and we finished 4:35 instead of 4:20. Carts were very finicky

Enjoyed the round and played ahead of pace. The greens were in great shape and rolled true and fast.

Unfortunately, they don't handle people well. They are in such a hurry to get out they forget why they are there. Very rude and even loud at times from check in to the cart guys. The started was actually very accommodating.

This is a sporty 18-hole course that you will enjoy playing. Staff is friendly, rates are quite reasonable, and the course is well cared for. I played in a threesome on a Tuesday PM and the pace of play was excellent. A few of the greens have been cut too short and or experienced heat damage but overall, the greens are in good shape. For a municipal course you will enjoy the venue.

I liked the courses later and it was in good shape for the price. The only issue was the pace of play. Over 5 hours.

No ranger all day. Not sure I would return due to pace.

Rude and demanding from the check in counter to the guy who collects the carts.

Very dissatisfied. I have been to many courses and this is one of the worst.

Hilldale has well maintained grounds. Clean fairways, smooth greens, and trimmed fringe and rough areas.

The holes are varied with many doglegs and water hazards, alongside nice straight fairways.

We went on a Saturday afternoon and we did wait at a few holes for the groups in front. The carts track pace of play, and we were a few minutes behind at times. 18 holes took just under 4 hours.

The golf carts have gps built in, which was very handy except for one thing. The carts disable themselves when you’re in a restricted area. However, those restricted areas are not marked and an alarm goes off when you enter one, and the cart is disabled immediately. This was rather annoying and I ended up just staying on the cart path even though 90 degree rule was in effect.

Great layout with many interesting holes. Greens especially good and fast. Tees, fairways, traps all in fine shape. Get a discount using Golf Now and enjoy this marvelous layout.
