Hillcrest GC
Excellent round at Hillcrest yesterday! Course and greens are in superb condition and look forward to playing again!
private to public
The golf course is in really good shape. The greens in fairways are extremely good for Kansas City. Are used to be a country club now public golf course. It’s definitely A good track.
Weekend Golf Trip
The course is beautifully laid out. The greens were receptive and had good speed. The course needs some TLC. Enjoyed playing the course.
Water Main Break
This is one of my favorite courses. However, the course was in horrible condition due to a previous Watermain break. The staff were great, and very apologetic. Seems to me that there are to be an ability to include information to this effect when making tee times on the golfnow site.
Awesome for the value, had (probably) temporary flooding problem
Went and played this course with a buddy yesterday, both of our first times. The course was very well kept for the most part, greens soft and ran true, rough was thick but well kept, tee boxes were in great shape. Only thing was it seemed a pipe had broken on hole 9 - near the top of the course elevation wise - and it was constantly running water all day that was trickling down to the other holes, making some really swampy conditions for some holes, eventually culminating in standing water at the base of the steep hill on fairway of hole 15 or 16, where I hit a ball out of standing water lol. I imagine this is a temporary issue however, and without it, this would easily be a 5 star rating. Absolutely loved the value on this, great course for less than $40 on a Sunday, will absolutely be coming back at that price.
Great improvements in fairways since initial visit
The course was in great shape, a few fairways still being filled out but MUCH better than last time we played. Moved up to whites this time and had much more fun, blues were pretty challenging last time.
Nice golf, not too busy.
Nice course, welcoming staff, not busy when I went with plenty of time.
The only bad thing is the course
Most par 5’s and 4’s have a decent amount of messed up space on the fairways, concessions are well priced, beer is cheaper than most places, if you go, go in the afternoon when it’s cheaper for tee times, i think you shouldn’t pay more than 36$ dollars for this 18 because of the par 4’s and 5’s.
Course and facilities in terrible condition
It is unbelievable how bad of shape this course is in. The fairways are dead and many sand traps are completely full of bees. How they can charge $56 is a travesty. We chose this because early tee times were available and the course was empty but now we see why. We deserve a refund and Golfnow should completely drop this course.
Not in good shape
Fairways not in good shape, pace of play was bad. No marshal to tell people to pick it up or let groups pass you. Staff was nice. If not going to have a cart person out on course then have water stations.
Tough but great layout/course but lots of fairway issues
Loved the course and can see they are working on it but fairways were very bare and overall was tough to find many areas that were not in bad shape. Greens were perfect however so if they can fix that this course is very worth trying again.
Previous reviews are misleading
This course is not as bad as some of the more recent reviews on here. The greens were a tad slow but rolled very true, the fairways were a little burnt out, but weren’t hard pan. The layout was very fun and unique. I’d play this course again in a heartbeat
SLOW and Burnt
This has always typically been a nice, challenging course. The new Billie bunkers are a bonus. The rates were discounted because several fairways are burnt out pretty severely. They were honest about that up front. We got to tee off earlier than our tee time, which was great. Pace of play for the first nine was fantastic. However, on the back, we ran into a majorly slow foursome in front. It was awful. We waited on every shot; add that to many of the holes being cart-path only and my cousin and I couldn't wait to be done with the rounds.
Hillcrest
Greens in fair condition, fairways & tee boxes were in bad shape. Most tee boxes had hardly any grass & fairways were spotty at best.
