Pine Hills Golf Club

About
Opened in 1924, Pine Hills Golf Course in Ottawa, Ill. is one of the oldest courses in the area. The course is also distinctive because of its stunning landscape, which is complete with valleys, hills, and bluffs all covered with hundreds of trees. Despite being only a nine-hole layout, it's one of the most formidable rounds of golf you'll find in central Illinois. The design uses many traditional elements but it stands up to modern full-length courses. The terrain provides many of the layout's challenges. Tall pines and giant oak trees line the fairways and the different elevation changes require careful course management, as do the elevated greens. Water also comes into play frequently throughout Pine Hills Golf Course. You're only safe from both trees and water on two holes

Nice, but basic.
Nice course. But nothing spectacular. Holes somewhat average. Greens were very nice. If you are close and want a reasonable course to play this is it. Probably nothing worth going out of your way for. Young lady in the pro shop was very nice.
Great course
This was a great course, very well maintained, fairways were above average, greens were in excellent condition and true. Will play again if in the area.
Allows 8 somes out to slow the whole course down.
Pace of play was almost unplayable. They let 8 somes out to slow the whole course down for hours. It was brutal. Won’t be back.
Horrible pace of Play
This course was decent. Wouldn’t pay any more than 30 bucks here. Bar looked nice and staff was super friendly. Pace of play was brutal. They did nothing and allowed a group to play as an 8 some and slow the whole course up. 8 people teeing off per hole, brutal. Will not be back.
Love it
Usually do not enjoy 9 hole courses but love playing at this course.
Great Course
Perfect location and views. Staff are friendly and the food is local favorite
