I swung by Hilltop, it's on Rolling Acress just south of 466 behind American Legion Hall, and it's a nice set up. They have a few mats for hitting drives but most of the teeing area is sodded, which is exactly what I'm looking for. They have some nice targets out on the range with a treed background. When I was there the pro giving lessons was down at one end and didn't interfere and I didn't pick up on any talking going on around the tees. I would call it a pretty decent driving range, they also have a putt-putt and some batting cages for softball hitting.

That is a decent range. I don't remember there being a practice green for putting and chipping, but I did like the area for hitting balls, and no, I don't remember encountering noisy people. I guess I quit going there because it wasn't golf cart accessible, and Leahy's was. When my ticket to Leahy's driving range runs out, I may go back to Tree Tops, depending on the price, and if I can hit balls. I've been dealing with tendinitis, which doesn't seem to want to go away.
