Frequently Asked Questions

When's the absolute best time to play High Pointe to truly appreciate its unique topography and course conditions?

We always recommend visiting High Pointe in late spring or early fall - think May-June or September-October. You'll find the course in peak condition, the weather is usually perfect for walking, and the views from those elevated tees are simply breathtaking without the summer haze.

High Pointe's 14th hole is rumored to be a real beast - what's the secret to conquering it?

Ah, the 14th - it's definitely a memorable one, a long par-4 with a significant downhill approach to a well-guarded green. Our advice is to play for position off the tee, favoring the right side, and then trust your mid-iron to carry the front bunker; don't be short.

How busy does High Pointe typically get, and can I expect a reasonable pace of play, especially on weekends?

High Pointe can certainly draw a crowd, especially on prime weekend mornings, but they do a good job managing tee times. We've found that playing early on a Saturday or aiming for a twilight round on a Sunday usually guarantees a smoother pace, letting you enjoy the course without feeling rushed.

Considering the greens fees, what should I expect in terms of overall experience and amenities at High Pointe?

You're paying for a meticulously maintained course with truly unique elevation changes and strategic design, not just a standard round. Expect top-notch conditions, friendly staff, and a clubhouse with fantastic views perfect for a post-round drink; it's a premium experience that delivers.

After a challenging round at High Pointe, what's the go-to spot for a bite or a celebratory drink?

Head straight to the "Summit Grill" in the clubhouse - it lives up to its name with incredible panoramic views of the course and surrounding hills. Their local craft beer selection is excellent, and the "High Pointe Burger" is the perfect reward after navigating those tricky greens.
