Nice Course

Nice course and friendly staff. Only concern today was pace of play. 3 extremely slow groups backed up entire course. Added about an hour to the round

Improving all the time

Heddles has been under new ownership for a few months. They are making improvements to the course and I am enjoying all of the work they have done. The clubhouse could really use an update but that’s not a big deal to me. Friendly staff who ask your opinions on the course and share their plans for improvement. Never has a bad round there and will continue to go back.

Elevation changes and a good value

Played 9 here for the first time. LOTS of elevation changes. Greens were solid(and tricky) along with tee boxes. Good routing but would be a tough walk with the hills.. Paid $20 for 9, and I think 18 was $25 in the afternoon. Course was pretty quiet on a beautiful Saturday afternoon which was kind of odd to me considering the quality and the price. Will try to play the back 9 the next time we are back in Spartanburg.

Challenging course

Nice course, but be prepared to hit good shots that you might not find the ball! It’s got slopes going every which way.

Please return my money

Dear Madam/Sir,
My name is: Tadeusz Wielgos - 8643207486
I had my game booked for today (Friday, Aug 21st). Weather didn't look good, so I try to call the golf club and find out if I should come over - no answer. I left a message - didn't get any response till now. So we (my wife and I) went there hoping that weather will improve enough to play golf. THE GOLF CLUB was closed! This is almost one hour drive from my home - one way.
Please return money I paid for this booking: 337569860
Yours sincerely, Tadeusz Wielgos

Interesting Course

My first time playing the course. You might think the course is a little short until you see the hills you have to go up on the front nine. Really enjoyed the par 3's on the back nine. The only "complaint" is that everything needed to be mowed. Grass on tee boxes and fairways was too long, finding a ball in the rough was very difficult and the greens were a little on the slow side. Maybe I got them on the wrong day. A little local knowledge would come in handy for several of the holes. It is a 50 mile drive for me but I certainly would like to play again.

Rude employee

I wrote a review for this course a while back and it is not on here so I will write it again. I got a very good price of $17 to play this course on a Friday at 11:30. They were predicting storms so I showed up a little more than an hour early to try to T off and beat the storms. There was plenty of Room for me to go ahead and T off but the girl working the front desk would not let me because I got such a good deal. She made me pay 10 extra dollars to go ahead and T off early. Seems if you got a good deal on T time they penalize you because there was absolutely no reason for me not to be able to T off a little early. Once I got out there when I started on hole number 4 I ran into 3 or 4 5 somes. So I decided to drive over to the back nine and got on number 11 and play two holes and there were more fivesomes. The management in this place is very poor and seems they only care about getting your money and not treating you like a customer. They also do not care about pace-of-play because there was two somes and threesomes out there that I talked to that were very mad about being behind fivesomes. They need to actually get someone running the clubhouse that knows a little bit about golf. I will not be back and I will tell every single golfer that I know to avoid this place at all cost until they get new management.

Nice value, pace of play a little slow but I was playing alone. Groundskeeper mowing also slowed pace of play. Despite that I would recommend it

Fun Round

Heddles Hideaway can be a very challanging course if you are used to playing flat links style courses. The course was in good shape. Very friendly staff. Will definitely play it again.

Challenging.

Played here Thursday and Friday (convenient location) very friendly staff. The course is not terrible considering what’s going on with corona. Short holes but crazy up and down elevation changes. If I had a complaint it would be the pace. Seems to let members weave in and out as they please. No starter. 1-10 Tee box share a cart path. Very congested. I don’t see how you could play here with out someone with experience or a solid gps. But overall. Price is right. And close to home. I’ll keep coming

Wow, you better keep it in play or bring extra golf balls

Tees were a little rough.

Grass in fairways was scarce.

Greens were bumpy and tough to putt.

Lots and lots of blind shots so be sure to drive up the fairway to see where you need to hit your shot or you’ll be spending more time looking for golf balls than playing golf. You must be accurate and place your shots or your frustration level will be very high.
