Fillmore Fairways Golf Course

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the absolute best time to play Fillmore Fairways for ideal conditions?

We always recommend late spring, specifically May and early June, to catch Fillmore Fairways at its peak. The fairways are lush, and the greens are fast but receptive, before the summer heat really sets in. You'll avoid the peak summer crowds too, making for a more relaxed round.

What's the biggest challenge golfers face at Fillmore Fairways, especially around the greens?

You'll quickly discover the true test at Fillmore Fairways lies in its subtle elevation changes and the deceptive breaks on the greens. Many putts look uphill but actually roll out downhill, so trust your caddy or spend extra time reading them. Don't be fooled by their pristine appearance-they're trickier than they look.

Is there a signature hole at Fillmore Fairways that I absolutely shouldn't miss?

Without a doubt, the par-3 14th hole is the one you'll remember. It's a dramatic downhill shot over a natural ravine to a well-guarded green, often playing shorter than the yardage suggests. Take an extra club for safety, but commit to your swing-it's a beauty.

Is Fillmore Fairways a good value for the green fee, and how easy is it to get a tee time?

We think Fillmore Fairways offers excellent value, especially considering the course's immaculate conditioning and unique layout. Weekday mornings are your best bet for booking without too much hassle, but for weekend play, you'll need to reserve at least two weeks in advance. It's popular for a reason.

What's the post-round experience like at Fillmore Fairways-any specific recommendations?

After your round, head straight to "The Divot," their casual grill and bar overlooking the 18th green. Their local craft beer selection is surprisingly good, and the "Fairway Burger" is a perfect way to refuel. It's a friendly, unpretentious spot to recap your birdies and bogeys.
