Unlike many other courses in the state, Scenic Hills Country Club sprawls across a scenic landscape of rolling hills. In addition to the dramatic elevation changes throughout the course, the holes are sharply framed by towering pines that line the fairways. The holes play to generous putting surfaces that provide a variety of hole placements, but its best to play to the middle of the greens since there are strategically placed bunkers guarding all of the greens. Water hazards also come into play on six holes, but they require only minimal forced carries. Scenic Hills C.C. opens with what is arguably its most challenging holes. The par-4 hole plays downhill to a green that is not only protected on both the left and right with bunkers, but there is also a steep-faced bunker that is not visible from the fairway.

Good layout - too many groups

While we had an enjoyable day on this fine layout - it seemed that the front nine was crammed with one or two too many groups. If they could possibly go dark for one tee time every hour or so, the pace of play would make the game much better. Good course with a fjne and friendly staff. Recommend - if you have the time!

Ken

Good course all around. Great views. Challenging holes. Great natural obstacles on 2, 6, 7, 9 and 13. Beautiful par three views at 4, 8, 14 and 16. There is a portion of the cart part in disrepair (15) that take away from the course. But the staff, food, abundance of carts and proximity of everything makes it a good course to play.

Great round of golf

Scenic Hills is one of the nicest courses in the area right now. The greens rolled very well and weren't as slow as many of the other courses in the area. My wife and I had a perfect weather day which made for a fun round of golf. Scenic Hills has a beautiful clubhouse with a very nice bar and dining area, along with a cover patio for those who like sitting outside.

Greens were in great shape

First time at Scenic Hills. Course layout was good. Fairways were good. It was nice to see sand in the fairway divots. Green were much better than expected. Ball marks were for the most part repaired (I am hoping the repairs were from players with a better understanding of course etiquette) which was great. Ball seemed to roll true so that’s an added plus. I would certainly come back for a replay.

Greens, rough and fairways

Still needs a lot of attention: Greens bare and need a
Lot of work as does roughs fairways and sand traps.
