Painted Hills Golf Course

Always can count on getting that last minute tee time for the weekend. Be sure to keep that in mind though- times are typically pretty tight which can lead to a long day out on the course. The last few times there has not been a beverage cart so be sure to stock up before teeing off and restock at the turn. I will say I'm very impressed by the conditions of the course given the past few years I've been out there. Hoping to see the positive trend continue!

I have played this course a few times now. The other yelp reviews I feel are a little too harsh as this is a public course. Yes a fews of the tees were a little rough but the fairway and greens were well maintained. The staff was friendly and getting/returning the carts were efficient. The fee for the a tee time was reasonable for a public course.

If I could give it 0 stars, I would. I can't tell you how many times my dad his pals have played this course at least since the late 70s. The Marshall knows my dad by his name! Today, the staff showed their true colors. I have never been such bigotry at a golf course! I have heard they don't treat blacks fairly, and until today, I had to see it before I believed it. Let me start by saying I was a last-minute add-on to the tee time. As we were parked at the first hole waiting. The Marshall and the cashier pretty much chased us down. Our 3rd went in to pay and was told he couldn't play because it was reserved for two. When the Marshall addressed us, we understood, and I opted out of paying, no big deal. I'll just ride along and enjoy the weather. The cashier says, "well.there are three bags, so we can't allow you all to play." I repeated again that I wasn't going to play, but I wasn't going to walk my bag back to car either. Then we were told we had to pay for the court for the other player to play, no big deal. We were understanding, and it was okay. However, the cashier was so dead set on just seeing two golf bags, not three. In the moment, you were made to feel untrustworthy. The entire situation was handled poorly, and even though we were complying, it wasn't good enough. The Marshall tried to get us to play with another group, and they weren't really willing to have us. I just told my pop's I'll leave so that they could move on and golf. As I found the Marshall to inform him, I returned the chart he went reaching for my cap with his hand in my face, asking me what the letters meant. Feeling annoyed by him and his staffs behavior, I politely took a step back and explained. He tried to justify his actions about the situation, and I walked off. Your justification should be as loud as your confirmation.

They should change the name of this goat ranch (apologies to goats) to Graffiti Hills. Unless you're looking to work on your "hitting off hardpan" game, this place is a hard pass. On about the third "tee" I encountered a "greenskeeper" who was moving the tee markers and making apologies for the lack of any real grass. I asked him "What is the point? You trying to preserve the baked clay and crabgrass on the front of box for next week?" I am seriously considering taking this place to small claims court to reclaim the $17.50 I paid to ride around this farce. Now I know why the guy in the pro shop had that guilty look on his face while taking my money!

Mixed bag: greens in great shape and very fast. Fairways burnt up with thin lies. Tee boxes REALLY hard and difficult to set in a tee. Slow playing on a blazing hot Friday afternoon as well. Still better than working.

I have played this course For nearly 20 years and I love this course. It has its problems because their budget is less than the surrounding courses. Because of this it is a little rough. However it is a great layout reaching back to the beginnings of golf. Painted Hills has several very beautiful views . It is also ideal for Senior golfers and Lady golfers. It is a par 70 with 6 par three's, all of which have great lay outs. The greens are in great shape as are the fairways. Come play this beautiful course. Seniors you will love it!

Reviewing with the A Gizzle usually sparks pretty spirited conversations. For instance, Painted Hills.Besides having been the scene of one of my funniest golf incidents (I will plead the 5th), Painted Hills is a not to bad course in a not too bad part of town. I think the location couldn't be more out of reach from the typical golfers in the area.Despite it's somewhat inconvenient location, Painted Hills is very well maintained and the staff does a great job. I do think the facilities though are really beginning to show their age and could use a face lift. The greens could also use as much detail as the fairways do.

Just got done playing the course. Let me preface my comments by saying I have played this course at least 200 times over the course of 30 years. Started when it was Victory Hills and private, thru and up to the early 2000's in league play. It was always well maintained thru out all those years for the most part. I had not played the course since it's renovations in the 2000's if my memory serves me right. Currently though, this is no longer a golf course. It was embarrassing to play this course. Absolutely no sand in any of the bunkers. NONE. Just mud pits with grass. Fairways were mowed and halfway decent. Rough not cut, clumpy and weeds galore. Brush debris everywhere you look. Half the ball washers missing. Tee boxes rough- did I say rough! People driving on par threes and right up to the greens. Golf carts were extremely old but at least they got us thru 18. Great Life has done such a disservice to this course. I hate saying this, but they should just bulldoze it down and build apartments or whatever they do with their properties. NO EXCUSE.

Cheap golf for the weekend $30 with a cart but course in rough shape. Grass was long in the fairways and tee boxes hard as a rock.

Disappointed in the course conditions and the staff seemed indifferent to glaring issues. Course conditions less than ideal. Took 4 penalty strokes for lost balls in the 2nd cut which should easily be found. Also, putted in the sprinkler system going full blast on 4 greens. Never had that happen and the pro shop said "sorry but the Regional Supervisor has been on them to water the greens". Although that is a great pat excuse my bro in law and I now use to joke with one another, it is horrid customer service on top of a poor golf experience. This is one of the Great Life courses around town and it seems they run things in a way that I am not accustomed to at a regular golf course. Would not return.
