Sunset Hills Golf Course - Old Course

Don’t expect Sunset Hills to be a Championship club experience. It is the epitome of a muni course. It is a great course for those wanting a good round of golf for cheap. The layout is classic, and there is not a lot of opportunities to get into trouble which is great for those learning the game. The greens are small and slope to the edges requiring some accuracy on approach. Once on, the greens are in great shape but very slow. Overall a great round at a great price!

The course was extremely wet which they cant really help. But the fact they allow people to tee off anywhere they like some guys bounced from different holes all over the place. Alot of people that have no golf etiquette. and course was in very poor condition. I will not play here again

Played here with 3 friends and it was a mess. Course is very torn up and everything is brown. Greens are in okay condition. If your looking for a good course to play in Charlotte do not go here. There many other options that are better

First time playing this course. I was first struck by the condition of the carts. The carts available all had low air pressure and were dirty. The seats all had torn and worn seats. Condsidering this is the winter not much grass available to get a good shot. The approach area around most of the greens was very muddy. The greens themselves have sparse green grass. This led to difficult speed control on putts.

Great course, especially for the beginner or average player. Tends to be a bit muddy around the greens, but good course layout and a great value.

I played 9 holes then another 18 that I booked through GolfNOW. With coupons from perviously booked rounds, my cost was $3. The staff was super friendly and prior to playing we told them that we would be eating hot dogs for lunch. They had none on the grill and were super friendly in making them.

The course was in a very wet state as it rained that day. My pants were muddy after playing. Some of the holes were water logged. However the fairways were in decent shape for all the rain we got and the green rolled really well. Although the wet conditions I would definitely play again!

Course was decent. A little wet and muddy around the greens but the greens were in great shape. Will definitely play again soon

Sunset hills is not a perfect course but it is perfect for me. This course is cheap enough that I can find the time to play weekly. It has a little bit of sand, a little bit of water and a great mix of hole lengths. The front 9 is tight and compressed, you need to be a good striker to score well. On the back 9 you can really open up with the driver. Hole 16 is my favorite hole. Hitting from blues on this 130ish yard par 3 you see a 100 yard lake just in front of tee box. The green is nestled tight just behind a bunker. Tough green to hit. Course condition can be an issue here. Some holes don't drain well and can get a bit swampy even days after a rain. Green are pretty decent and the ball rolls well. If your a consistent low 80 golfer this course will not be a huge challenge. For the rest of us amatuers, it is plenty hard.

Like a lot of NC courses after a rain it was soggy in low areas. The greens were slow but in good shape, tee boxes could use some help. For the money it was great I plan on bringing the wife next time and try the learning course.

Price right, course in good shape, layout not overly challenging, but greens a bit slow. Overall, thoroughly enjoyed the course, and plan to go back.

The rough was VERY long even in the first cut. There were clippings everywhere when we played. Overall not bad for $30, but not sure I’d play there again. Losing balls 1 foot off the fairway is frustrating.

Course was in good shape, greens were a little slow but in great shape. The real gem at this course is the staff. Extremely friendly and accommodating. I would definitely play here again. And I forgot to mention what a great deal it is.

Good value for the money, but the greens are tough to stick on. They are built like upside down bowls and are very small. Rough and fairways need to be cut but for the price you cannot beat it. Pretty short course overall which really helps pace of play.

Tee boxes right next to greens. Very tight fairways. Seemed as though there just needed to be a few more acres for the course. A couple of holes nearly share a tee box. Course not in condition for the fees.

The course was not mowed. Although it was busy, the pace of play was good. If the course superintendent put some time, energy and money, this could be a decent public course to play.

Sunset is definitely a starter course. A lot of newer golfers just trying to learn the game. The course layout is pretty good, not too challenging but some fairways get pretty narrow with the tree lines. The tee boxes are pretty level and tended, the fairways are in great shape for a public city course, but the greens need a little TLC. Just patchy as most city owned courses are.

Greens in rough shape as are most tee boxes. Not crowded so blazed through the round. Reasonable value for the $$ spent for a practice round.

Don’t do it. Pace of play was a ridiculously slow. The ‘greens’ looked jacked up and the fairways were full of patches and holes. Will not be playing here again until management gets it together. Was supposed to be a fun day of golf with great weather and I instantly regretted trying this course.
