Chemung Hills Golf Club
About
Established in 1927, Chemung Hills Golf Club is one Livingston County's oldest courses. The classic design has withstood the test of time beautifully and it is still considered one of the area's toughest public courses. The layout stretches across lush, rolling hills that are dappled with mature trees. Chemung Hills is known almost as much for the beautiful scenery as it is for the challenging design, which is characterized by its elevation changes. The ups and downs on the course range from subtly tricky to dramatic and intimidating. The layout has a player-friendly mix of short and mid-length holes, even all of the par 5s are reachable. Though you may not need length, your shots will need to be straight and accurate. You'll face blind shots on several holes. Strong iron play will be generously rewarded on this tough golf course.

Great course & friendly staff
First time playing this course and I would go back to play again. Great value and the staff is very friendly.
GOOD PRICE
FAR FROM ME BUT WENT BECAUSE OF LOW COST, NO BEVERAGE CART CAME OUT THE WHOLE 4 1/2 HOURS OF PLAY
Good early season course!
This was my first time playing Chemung Hills GC. I played with a friend in early spring. It was sunny but still chilly. The greens were in good condition for early spring and after the harsh winter. Putts rolled well and that's all you can hope for in mid April. One very quirky item to mention is when teeing off number 10 you are hitting directly over a portion of the parking lot. Lunch menu was very minimal, possibly because it was April. Only hotdogs and brats were available.
Fun play
Nice course with lots of changing elevation. Plays well with challenging greens.
Nice Course
Had a great Time, Staff was friendly. greens were hard but true. Lot of undulations at the course
Course manners
My foursome was jumped at the turn while getting lunch. We arrived on the 10th tee just as the first golfer was teeing up. This foursome did not ask to jump ahead of us and worse yet one of them was a starter, Phil who worked for the course! We waited on every hole on the front 9. No ranger would intervene because of their homeboy. I'll never go back.
Nice Course
Certainly worth playing, Has some challenging holes and a real bargain.
Fairways
The fairways were really bumpy as well as what is left of the cart paths. Greens were in fair condition. The carts were nice and in good condition. The staff was nice and helpful.
up north feel at low cost
Always enjoy the topography and "up north" feel. Scenery and elevation changes provide many inspiring views.
Nice old fashion course
Spring golf but greens were in excellent shape and management is keeping the course in good shape. Enjoyed the course will play it again in the summer.
ideal day
course was very good value thru golfnow very few people end of season still in good shape closing this w/e
doesn't set up well at the tee box
I thought the course was ok. I kept saying i won't hurry back. There are a few holes that look great . Most generally i though the course needed work and that it looked in bad shape. I was told this course at one time was semi-private. I don't see that at all. I;m sorry about how i feel. I play a lot of golf and honestly it was one of the worst courses i played besides the Myth the old beaver creek course.
Old style course
In a good way, Chemung Hills is a course from the past. Tight fairways, some par 4s that you leave the driver in the bag, smaller greens etc. I enjoyed playing this course very much. The fairways and greens were in good shape. The tees could use some work but out of the 3, I would gladly take good fairways and greens over tees. I would certainly play it again.
Lots of Elevation change
Chemung Hills indeed has a lot of hillls. The land is very interesting as you will find yourself hitting off an elevated tee on many of the holes.
The greens are very interesting with lots of undulation, but can be a bit hard.
The back nine is a great set of challenging holes and I enjoyed every one of them.
Overall good course for the money.
Course has many different evaluations and bind shots to the green. You must be able to hit the ball straight and accurate distance.
Foursome enjoyed the round. Tight course and many hazards. I would play it again.

Still the same
Our golf league played at Chemung for 3 years and for 3 years everyone was looking for course improvements. Promise's from the course were never followed thru with. After not playing there for 4 years, I returned to play with my son. Same Ol Chemung. Terrible condition. Got a great deal from Golf Now, but will NOT RETURN to Chemung.
No range officer
Course was over booked. First time I walked off a course before finishing a round. 20+ minute wait at each hole.
Horrible Experience
OK, so here goes. I have been playing golf for over 15 years, and I did something on a golf course that I have never done...more on that later. Lets start off with the positives. Chemung Hills is a pretty nice track and it is quite tight and challenging. The greens were in awesome shape and rolled really nice. We paid $20 and that should be a good deal. HOWEVER; when we got to the first tee, there were 3 groups in front of us waiting to go off...NOT 1, NOT 2, but 3!! So we waited....and we waited...and we waited. Finally, we were able to tee off 25 minutes late, and that was just the beginning. We waited 10-20 minutes on every tee box and finished our first 9 holes in just over 3 hours. I have never been so frustrated....until the back 9. We got the the 14th hole and saw the back up of 2 groups in front of us and decided that we had had enough. It was now just about 5 hours into our round and we were only on hole 14, so we decided to call it a day. We passed one group in front of us and told them we were quitting, and they also shared their frustration. Later, while we were putting our stuff away in the parking lot, we saw that same group as they decided to call it quits too. I have never quit in the middle of a round because of the slow pace of play; I just couldn't take it any more. Needless to say, I will cross Chemung Hills off of my list for any future play....STAY AWAY!!
