Great track for all levels of golf

Oak Hills is a legendary track from the 60's that has retained its charm. No "back and forth" holes like so many courses today. Greens are quick and tricky

Oak Hills on Thursday in May

I liked the course and wish I could have finished, but there was a back up to the point that on number 5, 3 groups were waiting at the tee. I liked it otherwise, but could not have finished in under 2 hours.

Nice place for a fast 9

First time playing here - will go back. Not a difficult track for the most part but green undulation and water along many holes can leave many golfers finding score trouble. Greens were fast today, very fast. Maybe too fast if anything. Pace of play for 9 holes was under 90 minutes during the week at 10:30. Overall a decent place to play if your looking to focus on 7i-SW for the most part. Took my driver out twice. Will be back again some day.

Mom & Pop Course

This is a nice little 9 hole course close to my home and with the Hot Deal a good value. The course was in OK shape as far as the grass goes but over it could use some playing improvements. The layout is easy to follow and directional signage is not needed but tee box signs with distance to the hole would be a great improvement and give this course some appeal. Fairways are marked in some places with very small colored sticks on one side of the fairway for distance but they don't seem accurate and are hard to view. When you get to the course the parking lot is one long narrow road with parking on both sides which forces you to walk a long way just to get to the pro shop to pay and get your cart. They should designate a few spots up front for dropping off your bag before you park. The pro shop has no sign that I saw even telling where to go to pay and get your cart. They should not assume everyone that plays here has played here before. The staff was friendly and an outing was taking place just before my tee time so I knew it was going to be a long day, which it was, but they were unsure of whom I would be paired up with. I will be back to play on a hot deal but not on a Sunday.

Excellent value

I think this course is quite difficult for the average player. There is a uphill 380 yard hole that plays like it is 440. The greens were very nice and I would recommend it highly.

The clubhouse is just so-so, very limited food.

Narrow fairways

Very nice course. The fairways are narrow. Followed a women's league so play was slow. Change the tee time to later in the day.

fun and challenging

We were surprised by this executive course - 9 holes that were very different and quite challenging, with water and bunkers coming into play. It's a mature course, with trees (some of which come into play on the hole). The greens are undulating and tough. There are 2 par 5s, 3 par 4s, and 4 par 3s (but some were long, for women). We couldn't find the markers for any of the holes, but trust me, they were easy to find.

Thank you for the review. We're happy to hear the course tested not only your accuracy, but your length as well. It sounds as if the greens presented some unique opportunities for you as well. We'd be happy to have you back anytime.
