Best Value Course in Charlotte

If you’re looking for a good public course in Charlotte this is it. Tee boxes are okay, fairways have been the best I’ve from this course which is good. Greens are always pretty good but a little slow. In my opinion, if you’re looking just to play 18 holes/practice. This is the course.

Wonderful Course for the Price

Sunset Hills is a wonderful beginners course for those who are newer to the game than others. There is plenty of difficult shots to make and at the same time its easy to correct your mistakes. The only issue is that since it is a public course the pace of play is okay at best typically. Although the value for what you're getting makes it 100% worth it in my opinion and I have always had a good time coming here. I'm hoping with the new management company that once they are done redoing the tee boxes they will focus on the greens.

No Customer Service

Booked and paid for a tee time on the 25th of Dec. for a foursome. Drove 45 minutes there and it was closed.

Called back on the 26th to try to arranged a rain-check for another day. The guy said he didn’t see any transactions made which was clearly a lied. The guy was very rude and uncooperative. He didn’t made any effort to accommodate anything or retain a customer.

If they are closed on the 25th, they shouldn’t listed any tee times. Had to resolved it with GolfNow which they verified by calling the course confirming my case.

Sunset Hill, please train your staff on customer service and common courtesy.

Good for the money

Pretty easy and forgiving golf course. A lot of open fairways and a lot of drivable par 4s. Greens rolled surprisingly well and course was in pretty good condition. For the price it’s hard to beat.

Go play for yourself!

There are lots of opportunities for low scores if you can place the ball well. Small greens are challenging, but that’s what makes you a better player! I played the course and had a lot of fun with a co-worker. Definitely will be going back! I’ve payed a lot more for a lot worse! Course has several spots that we’re roped off and had sod put down. I don’t ding the course for this, I’m actually glad to see they are working on the course! There are a lot of good courses that get neglected, but the staff seems to want to improve things. For $23 it’s very good for the money. I would encourage people to go play the course for themselves and ignore the reviews. Seems like a very decent muni course.

Worst course ever

I have been playing golf for a while now and this is by far the worst course you will step on. After the first hole you simply wanna go home. The greens aren’t even greens you have a better chance of putting in your backyard grass. Do not waste your money here.

Awful

Wouldn’t recommend playing here, can’t expect much for 30$ but this felt like I was in my backyard. Mostly weed covered fairways, and the greens felt like a 70s carpet rolling a generous 4 on the stimp. Would highly recommend better golfers not to play here.
