Fantastic value, challenging course.

We had a great day on the course at Sunset Ridge. We were behind a small tournament that had some slow play which made for a longer round this day but normally this isn't the case. The staff is fantastic!

Great shape

The course is in great shape, as it usually is. If you have never played it GO! Be aware of the "ravine" on certain holes.

VERY bad condition on course and off!

Man this place makes me sad for how nice it was 7-10 years ago and what it has become. Every year it gets worse and worse. It is in absolute horrific condition right now. I dont know whats happened, maybe they dont even have a greens keeper... fairways horrible, greens horrible, stumps all over the place that should have been ground up, sand horrible and unplayable... but yet somehow the worst part is the tees. Inside looks gross, bathrooms were disgusting, draft beer tasted spoiled, they probably never clean the tap lines. They must have a good marketing team to ever get a good review on here, because nothing warrants one thats for sure.

Foid

Course is in great shape. Kudos to the ground crew. Only issue I had was with the restaurant. Nice menu ONLINE, but not so once you get in. Only burgers, etc. And it was a Friday. I expected the menu I saw online, but was disappointed when there were not the choices listed.

Best round this season.

Course was in great shape. Surprised #7 was not wet near the green with all the rain we have had. Grounds crew does a great job.

Very good condition for this time of year

Sunset is a fun and challenging course to play. There are some very wet parts of the course, but to be expected in April. Greens were nice and fairly fast. Staff always friendly. Strong recommend!

Beautiful coarse

First time trying out the course and I booked an early tee time, staff went out of their way to bring me my golf cart as the pro shop was closed when I arrived. Amazing staff and beautiful course.
