    Good course, good club overall. Also by far the most affordable private golf club in Boise area in terms of initiation fee and monthly dues.

As we got ready to tee off, he started questioning our handicap and said we should be teeing off in different tees. He then walked behind one of my other playing partners and glared at him as he started to take his shot off the tee. Claimed we were holding up the course though there was nobody in view the entire hole behind at that time. When I told him I didn't appreciate him standing behind us and calling us out, he claimed he could do whatever the hell he wanted as he was the starter here and if I didn't like it and wanted to argue he was gonna go grab the pro and have me thrown off the course. I told him I wasn't here to argue and I'm just gonna head home. And then he proceeded to tell us if he had his way we wouldn't be teeing off any of the tee boxes today. I told him I was sorry that he was having a bad day. He then started cursing and muttering and so I turned to walk away. He then jumped in his cart and then took off back to the pro shop. Paid for 18 holes, but left after 12. I should have read other reviews. Will never go back to this golf course. Gets 2 stars because the man in the pro shop was nice and welcoming and the course, though unimaginative was in good shape.

    BanBury Golf Course is hands down my go-to spot for golf in the Treasure Valley. It is not only…read morebeautifully designed but also rich in history. BanBury, a public course in Eagle thoughtfully designed by John Harbottle III, has consistently ranked among Idaho's top 10 public courses by Golf Digest for nearly two decades. The course flows gently along the South Channel of the Boise River and offers both challenge and charm. It was the first in our area to host a USGA championship, the U.S. Junior Girls. They are also adding a new simulator building next to Harvey's, their on-site restaurant. The space will feature three TrackMan simulators, full club-fitting services, and direct access to the bar, which sounds perfect for practice or a post-round hangout. My favorite part is sharing this place with friends. The golf course is pristine and welcoming. The staff is phenomenal, especially their PGA pro Drew, who gave me two lessons and runs fantastic group clinics. I always leave feeling more confident on the green. The restaurant side is just as amazing. The team, especially Law, knows our order so well that last visit he brought us our Arnold Palmers before we even asked. We always round out our day with lunch. Chicken tacos, Caesar salad, Reubens, burgers -- the food never disappoints. For evening golf or dinner, their prime rib and salmon are standout dishes. BanBury offers a flawless blend of great golf, excellent instruction, warm hospitality, and delicious food. I highly recommend it whether you are there to play, to eat, or just to spend time with friends.

    Played Banbury this weekend on a visit to town. One of the premier courses in Boise for decades,…read morethe decline of this course has been rapid since the departure of the original management team and greens keeper. Once the best public course within hundreds of miles, is now a shell of itself. What used to be a destination for me any time I was around, has become a once a year stop at the most. It's upsetting, especially considering how high the demand is in Boise for an elite public golf course. This weekends round was made especially miserable because of two factors the course absolutely had control over. The first being that myself (single digit handicap) and my partner (mid-handicap) were paired with two young men in their 20's, one of which had never played before. Needless to say, he was miserable, as were we. I had to buy drinks for the group behind us to apologize. Most egregious however, was that the course decided to let a group of FIVE people out in the middle of a Sunday afternoon, to film some Tik-Tok Golf Influencer "content". Our front nine, playing behind these folks took over 2 hours and 45 minutes, but then after the turn Hole 10 took 31 minutes BY ITSELF! By hole 14 we had decided to go ahead of them, and then were verbally accosted by the group as if wed done something inappropriate. And all of this cost me well over $100. The course conditions were mediocre and torn up, and it was crowded and slow even without the influencers. Highlights included awesome service from the folks in the restaurant and bar, and the young lady driving the beverage cart. All of which were affable, friendly, and made sure to take great care of us. Also the gentlemen in the Pro Shop were very professional, and understood my frustrations when I went to speak with them post round. I won't be back to Banbury this year. Might not be back again unless there's major changes to the operations and standards at Banbury Golf Club. Here's hoping that happens, because it sucks to see a world class golf course end up like that.

One of the most well known Boise courses is Hillcrest, home to the annual Korn Ferry Tour event and recognize as one of the premier private Country Clubs in the region. What sets HCCC apart for me are several factors. First of all, the course is in fantastic condition. Beautifully maintained, with challenging greens and nice landscaping. The course is flatter than some of my favorites, and I prefer some rolling hills and changes in elevation like Pumpkin Ridge outside Portland. However, the combination of playability and challenge is fantastic at Hillcrest. Another outstanding feature is the Professional Golf Staff and Management. The Head Pro, Brian McKinley is among the best I've ever met! And the Director of Instruction, Mark Johnson is warm, knowledgeable and an excellent resource. The Management has changed in the past few years, bringing a completely different and substantially more professional approach to the Member/Guest experience. I'm always impressed when the individuals in charge are working alongside their staff, bussing tables, refilling drinks, etc. The idea is that they're all in this together, working in lock step to provide a great experience. And that's a well run club and course! They've also really improved the experience from the Cart Guys/Girls, and Pro Shop employees. They're courteous, professional and under Brian's leadership, have become much more efficient with things like registrations, equipment sourcing, re-gripping and alike. I still would like to see cart guys/girls greeting guests at their cars to grab clubs and show them where to go to practice, etc. But that's improved as well. Overall, Hillcrest Country Club is the best private course in Boise by a lot. I enjoy getting to play there when I'm in town, and recommend it highly to anyone looking for a great community for their families to belong to.
