Locust Hills is a fun course to play and is very nicely maintained. I played here in July, 2024 and the fairways were in great shape and the greens rolled true. The staff is friendly and the price is an absolute bargain. I look forward to playing here again.

A good experience? All my experiences at Locust were GREAT! Seriously, the crew there are nothing but friendly, polite, courteous and did I mention friendly? Andrew (the owner), Bodie, and all the others will make your visit memorable. If you have group outings, they're just the ticket. Take it from me, (I've been a member for over 10 yrs.) it's a great place, so, come on down!

Very nice and well maintained 36 hole golf course. Would recommend. Update Aug. 9th 2023, have included a picture of tee box that I hit a branch on my follow thru. Let's get that branch trimmed guys. It overhangs the tee. Love the course all the same.
