Sycamore Springs Golf Course has managed to stay one of Arlington's best-kept secrets since it first opened as a nine-hole course in 1958. The second nine wasn’t added until 1994. It's often considered an underrated course, but locals in the know will tell you it's one of the most challenging rounds you'll find in the area. The golf course has a traditional design that measures 6,681 yards. It would be a mistake to underestimate Sycamore Springs since there are a number of tricky doglegs that require some deft maneuvering and greens that play fast and true. The golf course is especially tough on windy days. There are a few ponds that come into play and a creek meanders through the course as well. Sycamore Springs G.C. also has a driving range, two putting greens, and a chipping green for golfers to use.

Great course/Pace of play/watering greens

Course condition excellent and value overall was great. Recommend the following suggestions. Tell slow walkers to allow others to play through, especially when they are a single and in a cart. Water greens earlier, I could not putt on most of back nine due to sprinklers running. The ones I did the green was so saturated you could not putt. I would still recommend this course to play just later on in day.

Sanded greens

I really like the course but when we played on Thursday 5/16, the greens were bad. They had lots of sand on them making it even harder to make a putt than normal. I believe that the course should not charge full price under these conditions.

What a beautiful golf course. Very fair price for this time of year the only negative thing that I had was we were only permitted to stay on cartpath. I would recommend this golf course to anybody that likes to play a nice fair golf course. Maybe the next time I play we won’t have weather conditions like we’ve had in the last few days

Nice considering the season.

Fairways were in really good condition and the tea boxes were nice. Staff was professional and the pro shop and Sandwich areas were clean and well organized too. The greens were plugged and filled with sand so they were somewhat rough and slow but I guess that’s to be expected this time of year Fairways were in really good condition and the tea boxes were nice. Staff was good and the pro shop in Sandwich area was nice to.

Top Condition

After 40 years of playing I finally aced this day on Sycamore’s hole 15 with a 6 iron from 150 yards.

The course is really in great condition right now but the greens are a bit hard with sand for fall care.
