highpiont review

The greens were nice and that was all that was nice. Fairways and tee boxes were terrible. Carts were dirty. Clubhouse is dirty. Would not want food there. Course wasn't that busy, but would have taken over 5 hours if we had not skipped 4 holes just to get out of there.

good value

You can get behind slow people (we had to skip a hole on this particular day, but that was unusual), but for cheap, this course is really fun and scenic. Bermuda grass, so the fairways aren't green yet, but the greens are always pretty good. We play here pretty often.

Ok course for something different

The course is in fair condition. Mostly open with few hazards. Several stream crossings and one pond, but easy to manage. Several fairways slope sideways adding some challenge. The back nine is more scenic and interesting. Staff was super friendly. Worth the value with the Golf Now discount.

Pleasantly surprised.

Greens were in excellent condition, true fast. Fairways were in nice condition. Challenging 6100+ from white tees. Rolling hills.

Well-maintained, short, some challenges, great price!

Have played High Point a few times and am always impressed with how well it is maintained. It's a short course but provides some great challenges (a 170 ish par 3 entirely over water, for example) and I only use driver on 1 or 2 holes - great course for work on your iron play! Also, unbelievable value - played at 2:54 on a thurs. for $9 plus usual fees, was finished by 6pm. Highly recommend for any level!

Varying terrain and changing elevations make for a nice round of golf.

I've played this course several times before and always enjoy it. It's a great value course and presents it's challenges with different types of holes, but isn't so tough that you can't score well. Fairways and rough were in pretty decent shape and the greens were in great shape. The only thing I'd like to see added is more yard markers; a few of the holes it was kind of hard to determine. Overall though, a very nice round of golf at a great price. Best value in the Lexington area in my opinion.

Kudos to greenskeeper!!

A rather hilly course with personality. All par 3s are unforgiving. Beautiful scenic vistas of the countryside. On the down side, sandtraps are few and unmaintained. Greens are small and maintained very well.

value course.

Was in town with friends and pick a last second tee time due to possible rain. No one was at the club house (i.e barn). just a note that person would be back soon. So we grabbed carts and headed out on the course. Pretty easy course as there are few bunkers, but a lot of elevation changes which for a Florida guy is a welcomed change. fairway conditions were pretty rough (a lot of weeds) but greens were in good condition which if I had to trade bad greens vs. fairways I would rather have bad fairways and true rolling greens. We paid around $23 for weekend tee time which I would say puts the value at this as average, but if cheeper I would definately put this course as a great value. All in all for social outing pretty good course to just hang out with friends.

Beautiful part of the county, but needs attention.

Highpoint was in a beautiful part of the county and very secluded. The staff was very friendly, able to spark up a conversation about anything, and very knowledgeable. The course on the other hand was not as impressive; now I'm not an expert on the management of a golf course, but I know how one should look. Here are some faults we noticed with the course:
-Most fairways had an infestation of clovers and weeds
-The bridges seemed to be very out of date and in need of repair
-The cart path in some places was very roughly patched up if even at all
-Most of the greens had what seemed to resemble burn marks all over them.
- In particular, hole #4, the steps leading to the tee box couldn't be used because it was blocked by over grown bushes.

Great Value

Best deal ever. Was a single and asked if anyone came needing a player to send my way. 5 minutes later a very nice gentleman came along. Had great time. Also liked the gold tees for an older guy like me.

Very fun course

The course is a great value and is very fun with a some easy holes but a great mix of different styles. Some very short par 4s that allow for some birdies, but do not just give then away. Greens usually in good shape and relatively wide fairways.

Economic "neighborhood" course.

Tends toward an irregular pace of play but usually in pretty good condition.
