Having been in Mechanicsburg on Business I took the opportunity to play Dauphin Highlands.
Despite being winter season and after 12hours of hard rain the course was open, ready to play and in good conditions. Greens were firm but fast, fairways trimmed and playable, just a shame it was cart path only due to the rain earlier. I would definitely like to play in the summer season, Thank you for the opportunity in winter. Happy Holidays.

I stopped here on my way through town to play. Good design with some views and elevation change. Biggest challenge will be putting the greens as things are open off the tee. 16 is the only hole that felt forced onto the land.
Taking a star away because of the condition of four greens. Hopefully with some better weather the maintenance crew can get the conditions going in the right direction. Decent value otherwise.

The scraping method of aerating greens has to be the worst way to treat greens in golf and this course is a prime example of it. Its November and the greens are horrible to putt on and never healed from when they were done. We wanted to come up from York to play, knowing we only have limited rounds left before its going to be turned into a data center. Course still has one of the most beautiful and challenging layouts around. But damn... those greens were the worst we played on all season and we play all over the place. Putts will literally stay in the scrape marks and go away from the hole. Would rather play on punched greens. Won't be back till theyre healed not worth the money
