Hillcrest Country Club

Hillcrest Country Club is an 18-hole golf course designed in 1929 by renowned architect William A. Tucker Sr., located in Lincoln, Nebraska. The course is characterized by mature, towering trees and a serene, out-of-town setting that distinguishes it from modern layouts. The classic design features a nearly 600-yard par five, a demanding pair of short par threes, and comprehensive practice facilities including a 500-yard driving range and maintained putting and chipping greens.

The course has hosted notable tournaments and matches throughout its history, welcoming early competition from legends including U.S. Open champion Walter Hagen and Open Champion Horton Smith. A memorable match between Arnold Palmer and Gary Player was played at the club. Hillcrest maintains a proud golfing heritage and serves as a test of traditional golf design, appealing to members who appreciate classic course architecture and exceptional playability.
