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.

Fast greens

No grass on the greens .Nothing to stop the ball from rolling off them. Putt at the hole with less slope and speed than usual. Staff is friendly and course is in good.

Greens are really rough

Hard packed greens with different grasses to no grass. The rest of the course was nice. Good challenging approach shots with pins protected by bunkers. All in all, a fun day.

5 somes = 4.5 hr round

Slow play because of all the 5 somes, took 4:45 hrs to play 18, greens are fast because there is no grass it's more like hydro seeding, smooth and no blades of grass

Okay

Fairways and Tee boxes were in good shape however the greens were basically paimted mud...simply the opinion of our group but this course isn't worth the $46 ( $48 after tax )....Pick almost any of the other Sun City courses...... they're much better for the same price...

Use of “Crossovers”

Course s/b removed from Golf now due to use of “Crossover” tee offs simultaneously on 1st & 10th tees. I had a 730am tee time to beat the crowd. They had me tee off on the 10th tee & when I had to crossover to the 1st tee, they expected me to wait 15 minutes & then go behind a 5 some!

Terrible greens

Everything is okay until you try and reach the greens they are like concrete with no grass balls just bounce on them and there is no grass seems like something fake to resemble grass they are very fast but expect your ball to roll all over the place

Beware The Greens!

We went off with a group of five. The front nine was a painful 2.5 hours. The back nine went much faster. The greens were recently reseeded and were in terrible condition and lightning fast. They were so hard that they couldn’t hold anything from 100 yards out or more, so planned landing in front to access the greens without going off the back. The fairways were in good condition. There are sand traps and some water hazards. The rough consists of dormant grass. Houses are well back of the course and never played in our game. So if putting is important...look somewhere else! Until next year...

First time playing here

Our group has played a handful of Sun Citt courses but had never been out to Willowcreek. The pace of play was great especially for a course where an older crowd golfs. It was strictly cart path only so the fairways were in nice shape. The holes were pretty straight up and forgiving. Yet it's still a fun course. The greens were hard as concrete and a little funky yet they rolled fast and true.

Overall the course played well and I'd go back.

Really ?

Sending out groups of 5 on a weekend is ridiculous. Sending out groups of five on a weekend when cart path only is in effect is borderline stupid. Cart path only was announced when I arrived at the course, no pre round notification. No ranger to monitor pace of play. Pa e of play is a rule of golf, enforce it.

Waiting with 2 other groups for 10 - 15 minutes on every hole takes the fun out of a round. Ther was no apparent physical reason for cart path only.

Greens need some time to soften up

Played this course many times and like it. Wide forgiving fairways and well maintained. The pro shop check in is very slow at times. We usually play on Sat. or Sunday afternoons and it's usually wide open because most of the residents play in the morning and they are at the club house reminiscing about their gold game with a beverage or two by the time we arrive. The only problem and it's to be expected is they closed the course for about 6 months in 2018 to replace the greens and now there are like concrete. The balls will not stick on any chip shots and it's very difficult for you putt on because the ball just rolls and rolls and rolls. The greens just need some time to soften up and it should be ok. I'll try to play it again around June of this year to see if they have improved.

Holiday golf

Tee boxes and fairways were in good shape. The greens were impossible to hold as they were so hard and fast. They did putt very well, as I do enjoy fast greens.

No ranger/marshall on a holiday afternoon is not a good idea. There was a group of 5 that held up the entire course over the last 12 holes. We had 3 groups waiting on every tee box which was unfortunate. The back nine took about 2:45. I do enjoy the course and I think it will be very nice in about one year and look forward to trying it again then.
