About
Willowcreek Golf Course in Sun City has one regulation length 18-hole course, the Willowcreek Course, as well as one executive length course, the Willowbrook Course. The traditional layout of the Willowcreek Course features three lakes that form water hazards that come into play on four holes. The course is relatively flat but there are some minor rolling hills that cause uneven lies. The fairways and greens are consistently in good condition on both courses and they are both considered very user-friendly. The Willowcreek Golf Course facility used to be private but it is now open to the public.

Price was right
The course is a good course for everyday golfers like me. I play okay but not great. The course lets you play without to many places where you lose balls on missed shots.
I would play again.
Much improved since overseed but...
The greens were in better shape then last year before the overseed but I wonder if after that rye grass starts to die if they will return to being in poor condition. For now, though it is in decent enough condition to be enjoyable....
Not your ordinary Sun City course
Course is in very good condition. The greens are pretty soft, so there are a lot of ball marks that all the selfish golfers don’t fix. Excellent layout, challenging the average player. Two major negatives - almost all holes on front nine slope towards the creek and even if you hit on the fairway, with a little slice, there is no rough to stop your ball from going in. On the back nine, 14th hole is a nightmare. I hit my second shot, it hit short of the green, IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FAIRWAY, and rolled into the water. Second negative - FIVESOMES.. THey’re everywhere. I don’t understand why Sun City lets 5-Somes out as a matter of course. Really slows down the play. We had no one ahead of us (we were 3) and when we got to #5, a long par 3, there were a 4-some and two fivesomes ahead of us. The play grinded to a halt. Please stop this practice!,!
Another good day
Greens are much better this year. Really enjoyed
the round,
Going Downhill!
Course has really declined in the past few years. Greens were redone last year but still extremely hard and in poor shape. Fairways not even close to great condition of other Sun City courses. Missing a fairway will put your ball on the concrete grass and roll into the water.
Five somes all over the course for a weekend! Crazy.
Very disappointed and will not play the course again unless major improvements are made.
Fivesome
Willowcreek along with the other Sun City Association courses are the only courses in the Phoenix Valley I know of that allow fivesomes. With our fivesome today it took four and a half hours to play. The talk in the golf world now is how to speed up play. The Sun City Golf Association just doesn't get it.
Not a fan of crossover program
We finished front nine in 1hr 35 minutes. Had to wait to tee off on 10 for 1/2 hour because we played front to fast.
Greens had a few unrepaired ball marks.
1st visit
New to the Sun City area, Willowcreek was #10 since Nov. 1st. Decent condition even in the adjacent areas just off and around each hole, typical in Sun City, . Pretty wide and flat like all the Sun City courses we've tried so far, not much trouble, greens rolled good. Staff was friendly.
A good place to golf
Course is in fairly good shape, some challenging holes with water hazards along the fairways. We were paired with a couple of golfers who played there before so we got some advice on where to land the ball to avoid trouble. Course was not too busy as it was pretty cold so we played in 3 1/2 hours. We enjoyed the layout and will be returning to this course.
Nice track and good conditions.
Played here last year and the greens had no grass.
This year different story. The greens were true and Rabat a great pace. Quick but fair. Greens hold a good shot into them also.
Fairways and tees were also in good shape
It deserves a 4.4 star rating.
Horrible- Don’t waste your money.
I played this course today and they started my group on hole 10. As we came around the turn to hole 1 the Marshall told us to hold on for 1 hour until they got caught up. Are you kidding me. They were sending groups of 5 players out and guys were just standing around with no one to push them along. I asked for a 9 hole credit and they told me this is normal. NORMAL? I’ve played hundreds of rounds and never had this happen. Long sorry short they didn’t give me any credits and my entire group walked off the course.
Nice course close to my home
Greens were uneven and VERY slow and bumpy.....but early after overseeding and look forward to better greens after growth and mowing fixes them up.....otherwise played round under 4 hrs and was a pleasant experience.
I use to like this course
Greens were in VERY rough shape. Lots of Canada geese along with MUCH evidence of their plentiful diet. Pace of play was OK 4:30. Typical Sun City layout and the sand traps had grass growing in them!
I used to like this course; no more!
Poorest greens in towm
About 25% of every green had no grass as a result of overseeding failure. Greens were no puttable. Stay away from this course until the summer.
