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.

Good value using Golfnow

Greens were fast but true. Tee shots on most holes need to favor the left side of the fairway, water hazzards run along the right sides on most fairways.

Slow pace of play

I was with 2 other guys and it took us 2 1/2 hours to play 9 holes- I had paid for 18 holes but it was starting to get dark by the time we finished the first 9. The Coursr was very dry and we all got good roll on all fairway shots. Nice variety of holes on the front 9.

SLOW PLAY-FIVESOMES ALL OVER THE COURSE!

WE HAVE PLAYED WILLOWCREEK MANY TIMES IN THE PAST AND THE EXPERIENCE WAS PRETTY GOOD. YESTERDAY WAS A BIT DISAPPOINTING. THE COURSE WAS IN FAIR CONDITION OVERALL; THE GREENS IN GOOD SHAPE, HOWEVER THE FAIRWAYS WERE A BIT ROUGH, THE FRINGE AROUND MOST GREENS WERE AREOATED WITH TRACK AND GROVE PATTERNS THAT TOOK AWAY FROM THE FREE ROLL OF THE BALL. THE ROUCH IN A LOT OF AREAS WAS VERY HARD PAN WITH DRIED OUT GRASS IN MOST AREAS. WE HAVE SEEN WORSE BUT CERTAINLY HAVE SEEN THIS COURSE IN MUCH BETTER SHAPE.

THE BIGGEST ISSUE WERE ALL THE FIVESOMES THEY HAD SQUEEZED ONTO THE COURSE. IT TOOK 3 HOURS TO PLAY THE FRONT NINE WITH A TEE TIME FOR 2:07. THE ATTENDANT TOLD US AT CHECK IN THAT WE COULD THANK GOLFNOW FOR ALL THE FIVESOMES. SINCE WHEN DOES AN OUTSIDE AGENCY DICTATE TO THE COURSE HOW TO MANAGE THEIR TEE TIMES? THOUGHT THE COURSE HAD THE CONTROL OF TEE TIMES, SIZE OF GROUPS AND PACE OF PLAY......

Excellent Course

Arrived as a single, but paired with another single. The course was in very good shape with the fairways, rough, traps, and greens well maintained. The greens were extremely fast as I learned on the first hole and the other 17 holes. Had a very enjoyable round and play was smooth with no waiting to hit your shots. Will play again

Willowcreek is quite challenging, especially the greens. Stay below the hole! Has a nice mix of shorter pars and longer par holes. Good test!

Always in good shape w friendly staff

Have played both Willowcreek and Riverview courses and always in great shape more than friendly staff. Very clean from the snack bar to the bathrooms on the courses to pro shop. Never dissatisfied after a round. Some of the more prestigious courses should take their staffs to these courses for customer service training. Starter knows name usually and calls you sir not "hey man or what's up" when checking in. Left a cigar holder there over a week and called to see if they had it and the starter didn't hesitate and said we have it right here "sir". Love his course!
