Irish Hills Golf Course originally opened in 1928 as a nine-hole course and a back nine was later added in 1984. Thanks to the vastly different times in which they were built, the two nines offer a taste of the old and the new. The scenic front nine naturally has more mature trees and vegetation while the back nine is much more open. The front nine also has a more undulating terrain that is slightly more challenging than the final nine holes. Because of the different nines, the layout appeals to a variety of different skill levels. Located in Mount Vernon, Irish Hills is one of a bevy of golf courses including Hiawatha and Chapel Hill, but the course stands out for its unique layout and affordable rates.
