Better every year.

I've played this course a lot, and will play it again. It's the local public option and we'll worth the price tag. Course is in better shape than last year, but no without some issues. I'm looking forward to the added length and new tee boxes that come with it.

Greens were in good shape, fairways were alright, tee boxes need work though. It's hard to tee off when there is no place flat enough to have the ball on the same level as your feet.

Rough is deep and the greens are smaller than you might think. Great fun to play though.

Needs some work

I really like the course layout. A little long for seniors from gold tees on some par 4’s. The greens were recently aerated so very bumpy. To be honest, the cart paths are horrible at best. The LPGA is supposedly going to play an event there..going to need some major renovations to cart paths, traps and fairways to be respectable.

Second time around

Although conditions were kind of wet, I enjoyed my second chance at Highland Blue. A few things need addressed like tee boxes and cart paths. Could be a great course in future.

Excellent staff and cost

Austin was absolutely wonderful assisting me with an online Golfnow issue. Everything was great overall. The one area that could use improvement is the maintenance of the greens on the Blue course. I'll definitely be back..

poor course

course has 36 holes but there is absolutely no signs or anything telling you where to go or hit from. numerous tee boxes next to each other a few times we had to just guess. there is also no markers for yardage besides 100 yard sticks in the fairway. and 7 out of 9 of those were wrong. will not play this course again.

Progress is obvious

The course has been making excellent progress and it is evident this year. I can only hope that it continues and becomes the quality course that it was many many years ago.An excellent management team is making the difference.

Improving

Been playing here for 4-5 years. A lot of work going on here especially on the Blue course. Amenities are coming or have come back. In a year or so should be much improved. Fairways are underway for some repairs now.

Need a ranger

Great course. It’s a great layout with some tough and easy holes throughout both the red course and blue course. My only drawback is the lack of course supervision. No ranger to be found and no on course beverage cart.

Coming back

This course was in terrible shape for years. New management is putting some cash into it and it shows. Bridge repairs. Draining poorly drained areas of the course. Is it back to the once terrific course it once was, no, but it won’t be long. Highland Blue is a true links course. You do not make a turn at the pro shop. There was no beverage cart girl and it was an 85 degree day. Had to ration my water on the last 9 holes. They need to do something about that.
