Wow, this course is in great shape right now. Everything, the tee areas, fairways, rough and greens were top notch. And the price is unbeatable, a weekday round is under 40 bucks. It's the type of course that needs to be played more than once. Not too long, but there are quite a number of holes that are unique and you don't get a good perspective of your landing area. You'll also be challenged by these greens. If you've played here before it's a great time come back. If it's your first, try 36.

Course was in great shape this past weekend. Fairways are firm and in great condition. The rough was not to tough. The greens have tons of slope and are very tough. You have to be on below to hold to manage the greens. Three and more putts are out there if you're not careful. The layout is very good except for a couple of holes on the back nine that seem a bit forced into the property. Clubhouse and range is very good. Paid 58 on weekend which includes cart great deal for this quality course.

Great course, fair and in great condition when I played it yesterday. Tees, fairways, greens and bunkers were in top shape and the amentities are nice. The resturant and bar is a great place to hang out after your round. Only drawback are the houses but what course isn't in a housing development now days.

Hollow Creek is a very solid course with excellent conditioned fairways, rough, and greens. The designer did a great job with the difficulty level. The course isn't super difficult but is challenging enough that you have to hit it and putt it well to score. The front nine is more interesting than the back nine, which is routed through the housing and has some vistas loaded with vinyl siding. They also haven't updated the yardage book, so some of the bunkering isn't shown. I'll be back.

Course was in great shape. The greens were great and incredibly smooth. Everything was green and lush. Fairways were tight and the rough was thick. There were two things that irked me a bit. One is the amount of homes on the course. They're everywhere and are in the process of building some more. The other thing was that the yardage book and the actual course didn't match up. They had added and removed a bunch of bunkers which made it hard to pick targets. Lots of hazards!

Played today this morning and the course is in great shape, even with the recent drought. Very nice layout with wide fairways and large fast greens. Expect lots of three putts if you don't stay below the hole. The course is beautiful with the best tee boxes I've ever seen.

I used to say that Worthington Manor, Whiskey Creek, P.B. Dye, MD National and Musket Ridge are the big FIVE on I-70. Thanks to the "AMIGOS", I had a chance to play a beautiful course, Hollow Creek. Everything was fantastic from parking lot to the 18th green. Only downside was little too many houses around the course but it is still worth a play there, specially, with average 20 dollars lower greens fees than the big five. From now on I need to say the "BIG SIX" on I-70

The condition of this course was outstanding and the layout is great too. The greens, fairways and even the rough were all in great shape. The greens were FAST even with the wet conditions. Housing is all around, but the course still had an open feel to it. I can't wait to play it again, especially when the course is drier. I highly recommend this course.

Like another rater said, may be best of three upscale courses in that area. Excellent conditions tee through greens. Quick - true greens.

This course doesn't get as much hype as others in the area but for the money and quality it's as good if not better than the others. Great design, conditions and plenty of difficulty for the better golfer. The greens were in great shape as were the fairways and tees. The facilities are top shelf. It's a community course so houses are around but none really come into play.

Great course conditions. Layout was challenging even from the whites with smaller than expected greens. Only drawback is that about half of all fairways are lined with backyards and houses, reminded me of a Florida development type course. Also on the day we played they had the range closed due to wet conditions, wich seemed really strange since they use artificial mats there.

Played on Friday, 6/10/05 at 9AM.

Virtually no-one on the course. We had no group ahead or behind. The course is in great shape. The course is so spread out, most holes you feel like you are the only hole on the course. Fully stocked pro shop. The marshall gave us a heads up on virtually every pitfall on the course. It was like having a caddy.

This is a Great course and will absolutely play again. Just as good (if not better) than Musket Ridge at about half the price.

Great course. Fairways excellent, greens in awesome shape. Price is a bargain at this course. $35 dollars for a morning weekday and then replayed for $17. The service at this course is top notch and they really make you feel special. Forgot the teeboxes -- Awesome.. Comment was I do not think there is a blade of grass out of place.

3rd time to this course this year. What can you say. Great greens, fairways like a carpet, Flat well groomed tee boxes, and some of the best customer service around. An A+++ golf course. Oh by the way great prices if you are looking for a bargain. Played Monday before 9 for $33 dollars.

What a great course.. I am not sure how new this course is but I think it has been around for two years..

Greens: Some of the best I have seen all year. Running very smooth and fast and very receptive.
Fairways: Again in great shape..
Pace: Finished in a 4 and half hours.. Pace was very good.
Staff: Was very friendly and knowledgeable.
Price: Was $65 I think.. Good price for a course of this quality.

My buddies and I like this course so much we scheduled another tee-time this weekend.

This golf course was in exceptional shape on 5/5/04. The greens weren't even cut and they were still lightning. The course is very difficult, but not because of length. The greens have so much slope it is kinda like Augusta in some respects. There are some very nice views in certain spots on the course. The layout wasn't all that special, but the grass was just superb. Bring your good putter when you play this golf course as the greens are a true test.
