Amenities
Overall, I like this course. I would recommend to others as far as the course goes. This is my 4 th time here and love the elevated tee shots as well as the challenging greens. I am somewhat surprised that most of course does not have sand traps.
My negative is you do not have cart service on the course to get a drink or snack. I have seen nobody ride bye and ask if we want anything to drink. If your not going to have that then having water stations available. We were playing in 95 degree weather. No water or beverages to be found. There is only the snack house and sometimes closed.
For this reason, on hot days, I will attend another course.
Hickory hill south
Very challenging, staff was informative, overall a great experience.
very nice Course well maintained better than last year or the year before continues to be good value Golf
Nice course well maintained has improved every year for the last few years continues to be excellent value for the money for Golf
Course layout, pace of play
We started the first hole having the starter scream at us from the tee box after only a few moments which was a harbinger of how the round would go. We felt pressed the entire time. There are only 8 minutes between tee times which is clearly not enough for this course. Holes are right on top of each other so you are in danger while waiting to tee off at the next hole. We were nearly hit multiple times while in the course and waiting to tee off. After the fourth hole there is a meet up of four holes (it’s also the turn for the 9) and waited nearly 20 minutes to tee off. We left after six holes because we felt unsafe.
Hickory Hills CC
The course was fair but had over 100 trees down due to severe weather earlier in the week. The greens were in very good shape. The clubhouse, halfway house all need to be repaired and updated. The building looks like a dump! The cart paths are in terrible shape.
Do NOT Recommend
Terrible experience. I arrived for my Saturday morning tee time only to find the course had been closed for 3 days and no notification had been sent.
When I went to the pro shop, the staff member acted like I should have known there were trees down on the course and that they had been closed since Wednesday. I asked why golfers with tee times weren't notified, and was told they couldn't send emails because the power was out. After three days of closure, that explanation didn't make much sense.
What was most disappointing was the complete lack of customer service—no apology, no empathy, just a rude attitude. I'll be taking my business elsewhere.
Cart Paths are like Speed Bumps Every Hole
The cart paths are atrocious. You will be bouncing all over the place. Greens had plenty of ball divots in them. 2.5-3 stars. Anything over $50 stay away
I’ve played many courses and I don’t agree it’s worth the green fees they charge. It seems like they are still under construction and working on the whole property in some way or another. I don’t think I will be returning. Every cart path needs to be repaired.
Great Course
The only criticism is we were behind slow players and no staff members were out to move them along. We skipped a hole to pass them
Working on a few holes during our round but did not impact us. With all the rain the fairways were in very good shape. We completed the course in a good pace. The one negative the yardage on the scorecard is. Not close to reality.
Good shape for time of year
Fairways and greens were in great shape, rough was pretty deep just off the fairway. A little wet, but to be expected with all the rain. Fun course and overall good value for the price.
A good layout being neglected
This course has a fantastic layout in this area. However, maintenance is hopelessly poor. They are doing some work on the first hole - looks like they are extending the creek to the halfway point of the fairway. But they need to repair the cart paths. They look worse than Chicago streets. Access to Tee # 10 is dangerously degenerated.
Confusing!
Enjoyable but incredibly slow (5 hours+)
Since I am 80 years old, I usually play the forward tee. On the day I played there was no forward tee box?
