Hillcrest Golf Course

Hillcrest Golf Club is rated as one of the top municipal golf courses in the Carolinas. It offers a rewarding test for all golfers regardless of their skill level. This 18 hole championship course was designed and constructed by Russell Breeden and opened in September of 1973. Open year round, this par 72 course measures 6,722 yards in length. Trees define the fairways, and water comes into play on a few holes, but rarely poses a serious threat. Off the tee, the course is basically wide-open, with the occasional raised bunker lurking in the fairway. The greens are predominantly midsize – undulating but fair – with a couple of bunkers protecting the putting surfaces.

Facilities: Hillcrest features a fully stocked pro shop. Also available in the club house is a grill and locker rooms. Four lighted hard surface tennis courts are located adjacent to the Club for public use.

Practice Facilities: Practice facilities for your game are furnished at Hillcrest. Included is a driving range, putting green, a practice chipping green, and a practice bunker.

Sectional Qualifying course for the U.S. Amateur Championship. Senior tournaments are very popular as the Hillcrest Senior Association hosts monthly tournaments.
