Is this a joke

Played solely based off reviews. Multiple 4 and 5 star reviews so I thought I’d make a small road trip to try it out. This was a huge waste of time the hole course is just random types of grass and clover. the only redeeming factor is the greens were puttable.

One of the best values in golf

Greens are great right now for a winter course. Great value for a course that has a little bit of everything to offer as far as game play.

Terrible Etiquette

No course oversight. There 14 carts on 3 holes and no one was giving the opportunity to play through.

Good Value

A decent course that is reasonably priced. They also allow those with their own carts to bring and use.

Tough but fun course

Western hills is an all around great course and I will be back. If you are looking for a course that has some challenging holes, this is the place! The price is hard to beat for 18 holes with a cart. The staff is very friendly and accommodating when it comes to using GolfNow or calling in for a tee time.

Gem

Holy crap, this course is kept so well. I love playing here. Especially with my son. The prices are affordable and it's the reason we get to come out and play together so often. Chris and his staff are always accommodating. Especially with my group outing. They all made it very special. We WILL be returning to Western Hills in the future.
