Hillandale is a golf purists dream. It is the type of place where you find scratch players playing right along side 25 handicappers and having a blast doing it. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the place feels like a golf community. For those saying the rangers are rude, people who keep pace and don't act foolish won't have the rangers give them a hard time. John, Chris, Scott, Bill, and Mike are all good guys who keep the first tee clear and the course moving. More places like Hillandale, please.

I’ve been to this course twice now, both with a couple of friends who have joined me in learning golf! We are beginners, but enjoy playing and getting better. However, I’m convinced this course is not interested in beginners learning here. Each time I’ve come, we are interrupted by a ranger with an attitude problem who tells us we are too slow. The players behind us later told us they did not have a problem with our speed and thought we were fine. We were following the “pace of play” rules posted in the cart, but evidently there is no satisfying the rangers here. It leaves players feeling rushed, and not able to enjoy the game. Will not be returning, and don’t recommend this place to anyone who wants to learn the game and enjoy their time.

Fairly short layout but great value. Greens are about as good as you’ll find at a public course. Naturally it can get a little crowded.
