I Recommend This Course
A playable course, but as a single, they do not match you up with other players.
The course is in reasonable shape. The greens need some work, but the fairways are generally good. The sand in the traps is like beach sand, it gets packed down when it is wet.

Course is well maintained. The staff can be testy at times for "Hot Deal" customers. A great price for the course.

Nice course with just enough challenge.
I found Star Hill to be in good shape as it always is. The staff was friendly and my tee time was right on time. I enjoyed the fairway condition and greens which are never too fast or too slow. Only issue I saw were the bunkers but lucky for me I only had to use one. Great course.
