Outstanding course for any level player

First time playing this course and it was really spectacular. Nice undulating terrain, some blind greens, narrow and wide fairways in great shape, it definitely plays long. Greens were in great condition, large and challenging. Wish some players took the time to fix their divots, but overall in great shape.

Enjoyed playing this course, beautiful and great value. Will come again soon.

fun course

Hughes Creek is a fun course to play! There are some nice elevation changes for some challenging shots. The course layout seems confusing with some zigzagging around on the back 9. but generous fairways for forgiving shots fun for all levels of players. Front nine doesn't drain well so don't expect much roll after a heavy rainfall. But looking forward to playing there again!

Nice fairly straightforward track

First time at Hughes Creek - late season and was able to scoot around in 2.5 hours. Course was in decent condition and didn't notice any recent aeration marks on the greens. Nice challenging uphill finishers for each nine towards the clubhouse. Back nine plays very long with back to back 400 yard plus par 4's (12th & 13th) from the white tees. The par 4 16th was my favorite...some very interesting holes intermixed with what I'd term average flatland design. Enjoyable, playable and decently maintained.....just not a course that makes we want to play it all the time/everyday....a nice once a year adventure and I'll place it on the list of possible plays next summer. 3.5 stars in my book but the green fee must be $30 or less for me to consider.

Greens aeration

I wish we would have been told that the front nine greens were going to aerated and we had to play the back nine twice. I would have scheduled another day.
