Rainy Day Golf

First of all, the staff member who checked us in was very unfriendly. Granted, it was a rainy day and no one was there but at least show a little love for those of us who showed up to play! The course is very hilly and tight in many spots. Since the greens were so wet, it was hard to get a good read on our putts, but that's to be expected given the weather. Some of the tee boxes were set up so that the pins were barely visible even on short par 4s and even par 3s. The cart paths are the worst I've ever seen and need immediate attention. I've played here on nice days and it is always chsllenging but the rain made it extremely difficult. Ultimately, the great price I got from golfnow brought us in, and I won't be back due to the very unfriendly/grumpy staff and the terrible cart paths.

Lots of Hills

First off the course was in beautiful shape, but the cart paths need some work. The course needs better yard markers, the 100 yard markers were no where to be found. That being said the course is very hilly and challenging. Lots of trees and hole number 13 was extremely difficult, not much room for error. The front nines pace was fast but on the back nine was a different story. The foursome in front was extremely slow and after waiting for them for about 5 holes they finally let us play through. We still finished 18 holes in 4 hours. We enjoyed this course because it had a lot of variety and challenges.

Hi Nasamech,

We are glad to hear you enjoyed the lush contoured fairways, beautiful bentgrass greens, with water coming into play on several holes. We appreciate your feedback on the cart paths and will look at what we can do to improve those in the future.

We hope to see you again at Hinckley Hills Golf Course for another round soon.

Best Wishes,
Hinckley Hills Golf Course Management

Course was in good shape. Friendly staff and good value. Sand traps and cart paths needed a little attention, but a good experience overall...

For playing in May, the course is not in great condition.

Played second week of May. Usually the courses aren't as dry as this one. Long grass in the fairways and very slow greens. It's a shame because the layout is pretty cool but they need to take better care of it.

Challenging enough to keep you coming back.

If your smart you'll let this course play you. That way you have a chance of posting a good score.

Lots of fun hills

The only hilly course that I've liked. Doesn't seem to drain good on wet days though. Other then that, course was great. Had lots of fun.

Local Knowledge is Key Here

Don't play this one without a Sherpa! This mountainous challenge doesn't permit a player to go out and understand where to hit more than 1/3 of the time.

Fall conditions didn't help.

Good layout

The layout of this course is challenging from the back tee for hole 5, 9, 13 and 15. The green is slow. If the course were in a better condition, this would be one of my favorite courses.

The staff is cold.

Course backed up badly

Course was good shape but took us 3 hours to play. Walked off after 9 and forfeited our other 9 holes because we were fuming. This should never happen we even had someone allow us to play thru as we were a twosome.

I tried this course and it was raining, but I still had plenty of fun. Some very interesting holes. Absolutely beautiful setting. Well maintained, greens a little more challenging than others I've played. I recommend everyone try this course.

Good Value

I was surprised on a Saturday morning how little play there was. I purchased a tee time solo for 9:12 and ended up being by myself. The whole front 9 I was stuck behind groups but flew through the back. Command off the tee is the key to this course. Only critique is greens don't run true.

Left the course after 9 holes

9 holes took 3.5 hrs! They overbooked there tee times to where we didn't even tee off til a half hour past our tee time. If you have 6-7 hrs to play a round of golf on a sat afternoon then go for it, but I'll never return!
