South Hills Golf Club

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the biggest challenge golfers face at South Hills Golf Club?

South Hills really tests your iron play, especially on the back nine. The greens are deceptively sloped and often guarded by subtle bunkers, so precise approaches are key to scoring well. Don't expect many flat lies out here.

When is the best time of year to play South Hills for ideal conditions and fewer crowds?

We always recommend late spring or early fall - think May or September. The course is typically in fantastic shape, and you'll avoid the peak summer heat and larger weekend crowds, making for a much more enjoyable round. Weekday mornings are your best bet for a swift pace.

Is South Hills Golf Club a good value for the green fees, and what should I expect to pay?

Absolutely, South Hills offers excellent value; it's one of those local gems. You can typically expect green fees in the $40-$60 range with a cart, which is a steal for the quality of the layout and conditions you'll find. It's a fantastic option if you're looking for a solid round without breaking the bank.

Are there any particularly memorable holes or scenic views at South Hills Golf Club?

You'll definitely remember the par-3 14th - it plays downhill to a green tucked against a small creek, demanding a precise shot. The views from the elevated tee boxes on holes 7 and 12, looking out over the rolling hills, are also quite picturesque, offering a nice moment to pause and take it all in.

What's one practical tip for someone playing South Hills Golf Club for the first time?

Our biggest tip is to pay close attention to the local knowledge about the greens - they often break more than they look, especially around the edges. Also, bring your walking shoes if you prefer, as it's a very walkable course, though carts are readily available if you'd rather ride the elevation changes.
