Terrible from Starter to pace of play.
This course habitually Overbooks & does nothing to remedy the terrible Pace of play. Ranger & Starter don't do anything to encourage players to move along. Players don't get paired up with other pairs. It took 1hr+ to play the 7th, 8th & 9th holes alone. Greens are chewed up & abused by players. Greens mared from club slams & unfixed ball marks. Great place for beginners. Not great for golfers who like PoP, decent Greens & Tee boxes. The place is a Cow Pasture & a Goat Track, on a Farm. Customer Service is a shoulder shrug & a palms up attitude. If you suck at golf or new to golf, you might enjoy yourself at the Down Farm.
Pace of play issues
Tee time was 9:26. Didn’t tee off until almost 9:40. Had to wait for about 5-10 minutes per tee box. Girlfriend even had to leave for work after 9. We would have had well enough time if pace of play was up to play full 18.
Course has a bunch of lay up par 4’s. Not my style as I bought a driver for a reason. Course was maintained well and the ranger was super nice.
They did compensate us for a “refund” for my girlfriend’s 9 due to the pace which was appreciated. Would play course again if I can’t get in at my other places In the area. I feel there are plenty of courses in the area with better value for price.

HILLTOP Challenge!!
Always Great to play a round at Hilltop! Course offers up it's Challenges!!
Too bad
I wanted to like Hilltop (price is reasonable & the staff is really nice.) Unfortunately the layout is cramped, the greens are pretty poor, pace of play is slow and it's just a bit substandard as a golf course.
It's short and probably good for beginners. The people really are nice. So kudos there. Greens are super soft, not in good shape and most of all are so hilly in spots that it's unfair and not enjoyable. And that harms pace of play in ways that don't make sense for muni.

Aptly Named
This is a very hilly course with some impossible pin placements. There are also some very narrow fairways. The combination of these conditions makes it very difficult to score.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us, Rapper12. We are going to pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for visiting Hilltop Golf Course, and we hope to see you again in the future.
Good for the money if you can get a deal
Overall this is your standard muni course. Course conditions are average, a few wet spots and ground under repair, but nothing to complain about. The practice green is small and tight, but gets the job done. The best thing this course does is pace of play. Course was booked pretty full on a weekday, and I finished my round as a solo in just 3 hours 20 minutes. $60 prime rate is pretty steep, but I played for $35 and was satisfied.
Thank you for your honest feedback; we're glad you found value in your experience and were able to enjoy a swift pace of play. We continuously work on improving our course conditions and pricing to ensure satisfaction.
Don’t waste time
Pace of play was awful, 7:12 tee time and it was a 5 hour round. A few greens had pelts taken out like someone had taken an iron shot off the green, no ball marks on the greens were fixed, all pin placements were about 5 feet off the fringe in spots where if you go a foot long or short you’re rolling off the green or back down the hill leaving the same if not not longer putt, played here once 4 years ago and then today and will not be back. This course is not worth the $60 for 18 holes.

Less than 2 hours for 26 putts
Greens were a bit unfair. Pin placements had balls rolling backwards if you didn’t reach hole. Fairways in good shape, rough not too bad. Finished 9 I. 1:45 - and didn’t rush.

Hello, u314162336677. Thanks so much for your review. We're so glad you enjoyed your round at Hilltop Golf Course. That's what we like to hear! We hope to see you again soon!
The course itself is nice, but our tee time was at 6:09am and the course staff did NOT show up until approximately 7:10 an HOUR after our tee time. There was at least 6 groups of golfers waiting to check in to golf. Outside of that disaster, course was in good shape and a fun, challenging course to play. I would golf there again, I just would not make a tee time any earlier than 7:30/8:00am.
