Twin Hills Golf Course
Twin Hills Golf Course first opened for play in 1970. The course was designed by Pete Craig.
Twin Hills Golf Course was built in 1969 by the twins, Warren and Russel Hill. The course takes their name. The land on which the course sits was part of Moncony Farms, farmed by the Hill family since the mid-1800's.
Pete Craig, designer of many of Rochester's great golf courses hunted here in the 60's when part of the farm was a registered Game Farm, raising pheasants. Pete told Warren and Russel that they had a wonderful piece of property for a golf course if they ever tired of farming. An idea was hatched.
In March of 1969, the orchards were bulldozed out and clearing started for Twin Hills Golf Course, named for the twins. Two crews worked much of 1969 and the spring of 1970 to make the dream come true. Pete's crew built tees and greens and installed irrigation pipe, and the Hill families finished fairways and roughs, planted trees, and completed drainage work. The course opened July 20, 1970
