The Emerald course, although longer, in some ways played easier, but some of the blind shots to unseen water hazards spoilt what would have been a very enjoyable round.
The hotel accommodation was very spacious comfortable, but the food on the ordinary and they had no ice or lemon for a G&T!

Tight Course
The Sapphire course is very tight, and I found that I was using my 3 wood off the tee on several occasions. The greens were very dry and hard and even if you hit your ball high into the green it was still bouncing away, but it was quite fun to play.Reviewer Rating

Good course for accuracy
The Sapphire is the smaller of the two courses at Hill Valley but it is no push over. The front nine circle the course and the back nine are in the middle. There are a lot of full carry up hill shots to be made, so club selection can be a bit of a gamble, especially when it is hot and dry as the greens yesterday were rock hard and a bad bounce through the green could leave you a long shot back to the flagReviewer Rating

Well worth a round
Had a great day, the numerous burns caught us out but the course was in good condition and the green pretty constant.Reviewer Rating

Very NIce Course
I had played this course a number of years ago, but it has changed quite a bit and the facilities are very good, plus the staff are very helpful. They have a hole fly over facility which you can download to your phone, however my wife and I have Android phones and it did not work on them and as a lot of the greens are protected by burns we came a cropper on quite a few of them, but still a most enjoyable round.Reviewer Rating

Lots of trees
One of the most challenging courses I have ever played. It's a par 73 with many trees and very tight off the tee so accuracy is very important. All bunkers were GUR due to the Corona situation . I suspect the bunkers if they had sand would have been difficult to play. There were quite a few and some very deep.Reviewer Rating
