Nice layout. Unique for the area. Gets a lot of play and due to that is always in average condition.UPDATE:Unfortunately I am leaving this review. My mother always told me that if you don’t have anything nice to say then don’t say it so I won’t. However, course has gone downhill the past year or so. I hope they can provide more value as I feel like any other course right now is better.

Russ Libby and his wife, Tracy have done a fantastic job of making guests feel welcome. The club is beautiful with perfect views of the course. Its a lovely place to be! Bonus, plenty of parking.

Lots of potential for a great course. The greens were recently pinched and sanded - so call ahead for conditions.Overall, the layout is challenging but not to the point of being frustrating for 18+ handicappers. Pro shop staff were nice.Restaurant burgers are great and the service was friendly and prompt.Rental clubs are a selection of titleists- check the bag to make sure the shafts are the same. The set I had was a combination of metal and “flex-L” graphites. Hard to be consistent with that variety. But - then again - if you really care about scoring, bring your sticks.Hope to play this track again when the greens are in better playing shape.

Awesome course and never would of thought I would have to hit a ball uphill in Florida. Great shape and challenging.

5💎 Course! Mike in the clubhouse was tremendously helpful! I am new to the area, Mike asked if Id like to take a cart out to survey the course. Great Hospitality!! Offered the rates without me asking, along with all the other amenities the course has to offer. The staff from the greeter, to the starter, to the guys who receive your cart after play all treated me as I was a Member! Usually this is not the case, again I will return! Thoroughly satisfied patron!The greens were recently aerated 2 weeks ago so with the downpours of rain, along with the heated weather, the greens are lush and soft, but not too slow!

Pretty Decent its Old but Kept up Well. Fairways Definitely need to be Over seeded but its still a Nice course. Greens are Usually Pretty good.

I love this area. The clubhouse is new. Pool is being rebuilt now. Nice new tennis courts!Never a big crowd for golf. Should be all redone later this year.

Nice course. It winds around a lot of houses. The tee boxes were a bit rough. The greens were in beautiful condition. Nice friendly staff. The course has a lot of dog legs. If youre a long hitter you probably wont need your driver. Lots of water. Ill definitely try it again.

Absolutely loved played here today. Greens were greatFairways could use some work but that’s fine. Layout is amazing and such a fun course to play. I will be back.

Before the pandemic this course was in playable condition, now it is not playable. You cant putt on 17 out of 18 greens. theyre just not taking care of the course. Jax Beach gets twice the play and is in 10 times better shape... oh for the same price.

Carrie my stylist did awesome job for me reverse perm to get kinky hair looking smooth straight. Shes great yall!

It is a good course during the week but on weekends you will be out there ALLLLL day as they continue to allow groups of 5 & 6 play at one time. Called the club house multiple times and they said they would take care of it but no one ever came ;(. For the amount of money they charge it is very frustrating.

We went to a estate sale. The house was huge. Nice houses but close together. Gated with a guard.

Hidden Hills Golf Club in Jacksonville, FL is not exactly what you would expect, after all, this part of the state is pretty flat. Yet hidden from the surrounding area are the ups and downs you will encounter on the course and not only on your scorecard.Hidden Hills Golf Club has been a fixture of the East Arlington area near Jacksonville since 1966. In 1986, Arnold Palmer and his design group did a total makeover of the course, creating the challenging layout you find today.In its heyday, Hidden Hills had over 700 members and played host to the Greater Jacksonville Open, a tournament that has morphed into the Players Championship, now played annually on the Stadium Course at Sawgrass. Winners of this prestigious golf tournament included Gary Player, Tony Jacklin and Don January.With the downturn in the economy that occurred in 2007 – 2008, membership dropped to about 400, not enough to keep a club of this caliber up to par so to speak. A little over a year ago, Hidden Hills relinquished its “private club” status and became a daily fee facility. Memberships are no longer available, however long-term player passes can be purchased through the pro shop or online.Hidden Hills offers all the practice facilities you need to get you golf skills honed to maximum efficiency. There’s a full length driving range where you can hit every club in your bag. There’s a separate chipping area where you can work on your short game and a massive well undulated putting green where you can practice many of the breaks you are about to encounter. Whether you’re looking to work on your game for an extended period of time or just knock out a quick bucket before your match, there’s plenty of room for everyone. In the event your game’s not where you want it to be, the PGA professionals at Hidden Hills are ready to help you get your groove back.If you’re an “A” player, looking for a challenge, play Hidden Hills from the Gold Tees. At 6,892 yards with a course rating of 73.7 and a slope of 138, the course is every bit a tournament-caliber course as you will find and brings many of the water and sand hazards into play. If you’re new to the game and are just looking to get some exercise and have a good time, play it forward. From the Red Tees, Hidden Hills plays 5,016 yards with a rating of 70.0 and a slope of 120. Something for everyone!This Arnold Palmer signature design is resplendent with rolling hills and fairways; enough elevation changes to boast one of the highest elevations in the Jacksonville area on the green at the par 3, 5th hole. On some holes, the mounding on either side will funnel the ball back into the fairway; on others, missing the fairway can result in an ugly lie or a lost ball.After your round, stop by the Hills Grill. This casual bar serves up your favorite beverages from 11 am to 7 pm. Lunch is available from 11 am to 3 pm and features some truly remarkable menu items. The buffalo chicken wings are more of a meal than an appetizer and the pressed Cuban sandwich featured pork that was freshly grilled and absolutely delicious. Hills Grill is the place to be on Friday nights when the kitchen whips up some tantalizing dinner specials from 6-9 pm.Hidden Hills is one of those courses that you will have to play several times in order to get the hang of it. Water comes into play on 12 holes; 8 of 9 on the front and none after the 13th hole. The front nine plays 4 to 5 shots harder than the back nine and the emphasis is on brains rather than brawn. You’ll need to hit the ball a specific distance or to a specific spot to simplify an approach shot into the green. Many greens are elevated, thus eliminating the senior-favorite bump and run!Hidden Hills has been around a long time and you don’t survive that long in the golf industry without offering a superior product. This course has everything imaginable to challenge a scratch golfer yet remain playable for a high handicapper.

The maintenance team has done a great job despite the torrential rain weve been getting.

Challenging course with great conditions and super fast greens, at least for me!

Course is in good winter shape. It was good to see the maintenance being done now. Spring is going to be awesome at this course and well worth the price tag.

Excellent golf with amazing views.. I played in late Feb 2021 and found the course to be in superb conditions.. it is challenging and rewarding with its strategic pin placements, manicured fairways, and solid greens.. after a round of 18, I had the privilege of replaying a few holes before dusk, I holed out from the bunker on the 14.. it was a magical moment, but overjoyed, I forgot to pickup my putter from the bank of the bunker.. returened to NJ without realizing.. i called the club the following week (TPC week) and Russ Libby was kind enough to locate my Scotty Cameron putter and ship it to me within a few days.. I cannot be more thankful to Russ and his staff..

Nice facility! GOOD EATING!

Saw computer guy lukeNo kin to darth

Great course. Nicely laid out with well maintenanced greens and fairways. Definitely worth the money. The staff was very accommodating and kind

Met this really cute Mormon boy who offered to show me his sword collection. I think hes the one

Epic course. The house, you’ll know it, on 13 is so baller.

Love the water features here. Nice course and not crazy expensive. Lot of dog legs and nice greens. Courteous staff.

Staff was great but the course is in terrible condition. Worst course I have played in Jaxs area.

Had a great time, very professional staff. Very nice course. Pro shop has a little bit of everything! If you golf, Hidden Hills needs to be on your to do list.

Nice golf course but the pace of play is super slow I mean like waiting on each shot up to five minutes before you can hit and it’s super expensive for the condition of the course there are much nicer places in the area to play than this course.

I have used Hidden Hills Country Club twice for two different events with the most recent on 12/05/2019. The Celebration of life for my husband. I am beyond grateful to Mr. Libby and the entire team. They ensure that every single detail was to my liking, before and during the event. The food was delicious especially the pulled pork. Everyone had a great time and I received many compliments how everything looked. If you are looking for venue where the staff goes above and beyond to meet your expectations this is the place. I highly recommend Hidden Hills Country Club.

Just aerified last week but greens were still rolling great. Staff was very up front about letting us know. Thanks!Great service and best course in Jacksonville! Ill be back

I play Hidden Hills frequently and historically have had very good experiences. The course is usually in good shape and the layout is challenging but fair. The practice facilities are excellent and the staff has been welcoming. However, I recently made a tee time by phone and arrived at the course to play a few days later. After beginning play, it was apparent the greens had been over-seeded and were in poor condition. They were very hairy, bumpy and super slow. Frankly they were unacceptable for normal play. It is my opinion that if the course is experiencing significant maintenance, people making tee times should be alerted to the issue so they can choose whether or not to play. This was not done. After the round, I went into the pro shop to advise the team on my thoughts and the gentleman in the pro shop just nodded his head and said nothing. An explanation or an apology would have gone a long way, but I just got silence. I expected better from a course of this reputation.

I can say that this location is very niceBeautiful surroundings and nice homes

My friend has been a member since 1966, I have been a member since 2008 until it went public. Today was the last day I will ever play that Golf Course!

Tough course. In fair condition. Good for the money

Under keeped greens first cut more like the 5 cut and so on golf carts sub par good place for a clan rally food was ok Ive had better at a waffle house

Had a great lesson with Wayne. Hes got me hitting it consistant!

I recently decided to have my wedding reception at Hidden Hills. This was the best decision we could have made. After meeting with two different event coordinators in the year leading up to the event, we were left without one two weeks prior. But they had our file and the owner Russ along with his wife Tracey took command and made sure that the event was an absolute success. They let myself and the groomsmen use the locker room to get dressed before the wedding and made sure that we were taken care of every step of the way. The food was delicious and the staff was very accommodating. The bartenders did great in providing drinks for the guests. Our total guess count was about 135 and everyone had a great time. Thank you to Russ and Tracey for being there to make sure our memorable night was amazing!

Had a great experience. Only played front 9 but was impressed with layout views.I don’t golf often at all, didn’t find the course overly difficult but had plenty of water and sand traps to keep you focused.Highly recommend.

Nice course, feminds me of courses in Maine, with lots of hills and elecat3d greens, enjoy playing there.

Perfect day from start to finish. Staff,Conditions,Sanitation and Cleanliness, all on point . Thank You.

Love playing here. From the layout, to beautiful greens, this is a course I go out of my way to play at. Staff always accommodate their guests.Tee boxes, fairways, and greens are always in great condition, even during winter months. Practice area is all grass which is always a plus. Have never had a problem with pace of play. Course is difficult with a lot of water hazards, but is extremely fun to play.

Nice but challenging course

I practice there alot, great facilities, played there 3 weeks ago, great shape!!

My son and I played this a couple of days ago and we had a blast. The fairways were in decent shape as most people were not using the provided sand. $32 for an 11am tee time during the week is a great deal for this course. Greens were pretty fast. I like the rolling hills. The hills definitely make it even more challenging.

Course design is terrible, not really in good shape, and clubhouse is a bit run down. Food is average and the driving range runs out of room at about 260.

Great fun!

Good golf course. very clean. Also they have social distancing policies at the course.

My husband and I got married here in May and we could not be happier. The food was amazing and Tracy helped us every step of the way. She coordinated with other vendors, called if she saw something I might like, and was the hero of the day with her sewing kit when my mothers dress needed a minor repair. The venue was beautiful and many of the decorations we used were provided with the venue. That being said most of the decorations were put up by the staff before we even arrived. We were also able to come in the day before to set everything up so we were not scrambling the day of the wedding. Tracy made the day perfect by coordinating with all the vendors, running around to ensure everything was timed perfectly, and even offered to run errands if needed. The wait staff remembered everyones names and were wonderful. Ernest was our bartender that helped create our signature drink and he was amazing. Thank you again to Tracy, Russ, Ernest, Brittany and all the amazing staff at Hidden Hills that worked hard to make our day perfect.On a side note, there is a beautiful wooden bridge on the course that made for great pictures.

Course was in excellent shape. Greens smooth but putted very tough. Staff is outstanding. Private course quality at public course rates.

Deb, my hairdresser is the best. Everyone there is so nice. They really care about their clients!

Not sure why there are so many bad reviews. The golf course is beautiful, the staff was friendly and when I come back down I will play again. The fairways are tight with houses fairly close, but with good shots the course is scoreable. Lots of water through out. Greens were quick but responsive. Played with a couple of really high handicappers and Im a 15 myself and people were patient although we still tried to play quickly on a Sunday. Great experience.

One of my favorite golf courses to play so far. Im new to Jacksonville and it was too play. Staff was friendly to me.. However, on the range an odd interaction occured between the golf pro and a couple of men who were getting ready up pleasure on the range. Not sure why the pro was upset at them but seemed unnecessary to get that upset. The men simply continued to practice after the guy left. Other than that I enjoyed being there

Tough but fair course. My buddy was correct, club up on the par 3s. Friendly staff. OK prices. Will be back.

Ted Hopkins is an excellent Golf Pro!! He is very knowledgeable, patient and an excellent teacher ! I would highly recommend him to anyone . He has put me on the right path in learning golf and made it very enjoyable. Cant wait to pursue my new hobby!!

This is a great old course. The tee boxes could use some work but the greens are nice and its fun to play!

Friendly and helpful staff, beautiful course set up in a very nice gated community in Jacksonville off Monument. Will test your skills. Definitely plan to be back soon

Rough was very high, no warning about water.

Its a fun course. Water and tight on the front. The only bad thing is very slow play from the members. And the people who live out there. Im sorry, but when you open your course to the public and charge them a good rate, and you think you can treat them like there invading your course. I dont like that at all. If you want to slow play and not let a fast single play though. Close your Gates and make it members only!!!!!!!!. Just saying. 😣😏

This course is not for high handicappers in my opinion. Lots and lots of houses on the course and more popcorn bubbly hills on the course than a bag of popcorn. Obviously, it is called Hidden Hills for a reason but it can be mind boggling and dangerous to the families that live here if you cant keep your shots on the course. Picture day three at the US Open this past weekend being similar to what this course plays like for a high handicapper! Unless you are up for a stiff challenge, Id avoid this course until you can keep the ball on the range consistently.

Relaxing and peaceful environment. A lot of clearance end of the year deals currently going on. Its considered hidden gem. Shalom!

Great course definitely a challenge

Hidden Hills is a classic golf course design with plenty of - you guessed it - Hills. Theres small mogul type hills all over this course and more elevation than any course in Jacksonville. It has personality and some really fun ( and some difficult) holes. This is a course I play many times a year and it never lets me down for a fun round.

Awesome layout.lots of water. Tough course. Will definitely be back.

Hidden Hills is a really good place to have numerous elegent events, especially weddings. Tina is a really good event coordinator. She make sure everything is perfect for those memorable moments

Love the course, staff is extremely friendly as well. Cart girls are always riding around with beverages.

Nice course and for the most part very well maintained. The golf carts are gas and more or less mehh. The course was nice and we enjoyed our time. I wouldnt pay more than $40-50 for a round here. $30-35 is ideal for 18 at this course.Greens were well cut and fairways were lush. Overall solid round of golf

Course was in excellent shape. Greens smooth but putted very tough. Staff is outstanding. Private course quality at public course rates.

Ernest was amazing! So attentive and helpful. The food was delicious as well.

Not one of my favorite courses in Jax but the staff is incredible! That guy who works on the weekends, believe his name is Jeff, is awesome. Superior customer service, fast and friendly. Give that guy a raise!

I golf here multiple times a week. It’s a great atmosphere with a wonderful staff!

The course had very little grass on the fairways, the greens were beyond fast and the member group of 3 ( in 3 carts) behind us called the clubhouse to complain about slow play. We had just let a single play through and were supporting the club with purchases from the beverage cart. We were right on track for normal 4-4:15 hr round on a course that did not show the holes on the score card...flying blind a lot. It was obvious they did not want public quest, make it private then. Despite that, had a great time with our group!

Great course.Friendly people.Reasonable prices in their grill.

Great course . Helpful staff

We have lived here for 2 years and absolutely love it!!! It is a gated community with one entrance that has a guard. Streets are clean and the HOA rules are enforced.There is of course the golf course and there is also a small playground.

Great conditions and fun layout!

Love it that HH is in good shape again. Always enjoy playing here

Great layout and hilly. You dont get the challenge of different sloped lies. Good service.

If you like riding your car with the bass cranked up way up there you might not want to live here, but if you like around of golf this just may be where you want to live

Very clean inside and outside. Visiting family!!

Disclaimer, I have played this course 5 times now and same exact experience.I will start off by saying this is a desired track due to the undulations and slight elevations making it unusual for a course in Jacksonville/Florida. Clubhouse makes you feel like you stepped back 20 years in time, not sure what the member have been paying for.Tee boxes are very unlevel and half the time the ball is above or below your feet on the tee shot. Grass on tee boxes need help.Fairways are decent and are not overgrown.Bunkers are pretty well taken care of.Greens roll okay but there are brown patches and spots with just sand filler (greens were not punched or aerated at the time, it was just casual sand).We got to the tee box a few minutes before our time and they had already let the group behind us go since they waited at the first tee for 10 minutes. These guys waited for the group to tee off on #2 before they even hit their tee shot on #1.. we sat at #1 tee for 15 minutes before swinging.We then followed them the rest of the day waiting on every shot. Finished at 4:45.. almost a 6 hour round of golf!!!There was no water in the coolers at 11am...At $65 a round you may be better off at Amelia, North hampton, St. Johns, South Hampton and many others..

One of the best putting and chipping greens around along with the driving range . The course is difficult and really test your skills. Condition of course has always been great recommend anyone who wants a challenge to play here, lots of rolling fairways and water hazards and greens roll nice.

Beautiful scenery

Went there for a wedding. The staff was excellent, the food was wonderful, and the venue was really nice. Great place for a wedding.

Reasonably priced. Course layout, fairways & greens was great.

Beautiful greens and wonderful people working there, must visit.

Very good layout with incredibly challenging greens. An excellent test for all golfers.

In beautiful shape but as difficult as always.hidden hills

Price was right and the golf course itself was in excellent condition!

Green speed very fast. Fairways not great. Could be time of year. Had a great time, but greens and pins were laughable at times. Expect alot of 3 putts.

Course is in great shape especially the greens they roll true.

Excellent layout! Course conditions are good for winter golf. Only real complaint is the slow play ... 5 hour round on a Saturday.

The Black Hat Divas Sorority of NE Florida, chose their clubhouse restaurant as the place to have our Halloween Bash. We had lunch, fun with black outfits, witches galore. Very nice. Food mediocre...

Beautiful golf course! The greens are stunning! Wonderful place to play and its not to crowded plus lots of shade 💜❤

We played here Saturday Nov 24th and we were not disappointed. The staff are awesome and the course was a nice challenge. Next time I go back to Jax I will certainly play here again.

The perfect venue for intimate events. Superb customer service and great pricing. I look forward to my next visit and event.

I was beyond excited when the golf course went public. It was in excellent condition at that time. Not sure what has happened, but it was in bad shape when we went this past Saturday. The fairway was dry and greens were terrible.There was a foursome in front of us who were 2-3 holes behind. I guess Hidden Hills ranger leaves at 3pm (not sure why on the weekend during the summer), so we were stuck waiting each and every hole.Overall, sucky experience. This course has a nice layout, so Im hopeful they can turn it around.

Beautiful course with some challenging holes and nicely laid out. The grille has great food and atmosphere.

I hope the rain is helping, crispy. Employees are awesome.

Good track nice fairways and greens

Good breakfast and great staff very nice place.

Really enjoyable course, well kept and maintained. Best greens Ive found for the price point.
