I have driven past Heather Hills for years but never thought to stop and play. But with my wife taking up golf recently, the idea of playing an executive course has become more attractive. The Par 3 course at Tanglewood Park is fun, but lacks variety. Heather Hills is an executive course with a few par 4s and a bunch of par 3s that play different lengths. You have to play alot of different clubs to do well on this course.
The course is not in pristine condition, but you can find some grass in most places. This isn't a place for you to perfect your putting stroke on the rough-ish greens, but, hey, you're probably not a pro level putter anyway, are you?
We paid $12 to walk 18 holes, and the course was fairly walkable -- though there were a couple of holes that were very uphill from green to the next tee. But we made it, despite the 90 degree weather.
It was good to learn during our first round that the 9th hole does not take you back to the clubhouse and there is no water on the course, so plan ahead.
We also had a very good hamburger and fries at the clubhouse restaurant, so feel free to eat there before or after your round.
Heather Hills is a good course for kids, beginners, and more experienced golfers who want to work on their shorter clubs and have a good time. read more
