I have mixed feelings regarding my tee time experience today. I arrived early for my tee time to find out that there had been an additional tee time placed between my tee time and a tee time before me. Somehow ACGT wedged in a group at a 5 minute interval in between two regular scheduled tee times. It was a group of walkers who played at a very slow pace the entire round. As I understand they booked through Brackenridge and not at Northern Hills where I played. So I don’t hold Northern Hills responsible for that. I was also very disappointed to learn that there were 5 temporary tees from the 2nd-7 th holes which made it very hard to tee off of mats. It made the round les fun but they did charge us full price for the round. I will say that they did have a marshall going around the course checking on pace of play. Overall I was disappointed it the folks at Northern Hills are good people.
Course looking great! Had fun. Glad this course is getting the attention it deserves. Staff extremely hospitable. We will be back!
Really enjoyed another round here. even though they are working on the tee boxes, the ones that are finished are in excellent shape and almost didn't seem real because they were so nice. keep up the great work guys. we will be back soon!
Greens are in good shape. Fairways on the front 9 are pretty nice. The construction is appreciated to make the course better in the future but they were saw cutting concrete all day, extremely loud, dust everywhere. We were covered in concrete dust, cutting right next to some of the greens. Pace of play was extremely slow, we were a full hour behind pace, long waits on tee boxes. Not a bad course by any means but maybe close for the day if you're doing certain types of construction or at least pause while players are around is so they don't get caked in concrete dust and cough all around the greens.
Love the course. Greens are in excellent shape. My great experience —first time playing there —was clouded by being locked out of the back 9 —having paid for 18. It was frustrating and definitely affected my play after that. I’ll probably come back —but I know now to confirm the number of holes I’m playing (which should be pretty evident by the payment) with the pro shop.
