Great layout
Highland Woods has a great layout. I’ve always said they could make this into a great course by narrowing the fairways, and adding some more fairway bunkers. This course is very forgiving off the tee. The pace of play during the week is good, but I wouldn’t recommend it on the weekends unless you don’t mind five hour rounds.

Early spring
This was my first time playing here . The pace of play was excellent. Course condition was pretty good for very early spring . Carts were able to be used everywhere. Layout was good. This seems like a “long “ course . Wanted to play here before my league starts here in April .
