Willowcreek Golf Course
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.

Always Solid
I guess this was the first day open since pinching and sanding the greens so that’s unfortunate. Courses should be required to disclose that when booking, but regardless.. we love Willowcreek and all the other conditions were great. Fairways were as good as they are in the spring and pace of play was fine. Think we finished in 4:15 so just barely longer than normal. We love Willowcreek and everyone working is always so nice, especially in the snack bar.
Not too Shabby!
I enjoyed WillowCreek. The greens were slow and a little shaggy, but they rolled nicely, and shots that hit the greens held the green as they should. Fairways and tee boxes were also in good shape. The continual 4' water drainage ditch throughout the whole course was irritating, but only because it wasn't visible from everywhere. Someone who's played the course more than once, probably would t be bother by it at all.
The facilities are older, but well kept. No really pro shop to speak of, but if you forgot tees, or balls, they have what you need.
Nice course overall, for residents. If you're coming here for a golf trip though, there are better places to play.
Disrespectful Gloria
Showed up 30 minutes early to hit some balls before playing a fun round with my girlfriend. Walking up to the pro shop GLORIA made a comment at my girlfriend and said “I hope you brought another shirt if you want to golf today, tank tops are not allowed.” My girlfriend was wearing a very modest tank top that kept her skin well covered and exposed nothing but her arms and shoulders. I was taken back and took time to look up their dress code on golf now. Dress code says “no halter tops or bra type halters”. Dress code does not say anything about tank tops and she clearly decided to adjust the dress code just to suit her liking. Wayne at the front desk initially defended Gloria and then decided to agree with me that she was in the wrong. Becky at the cafe was fantastic. On the back 9 we spoke with another woman who was also wearing a tank top and she said that nobody at the pro shop mentioned anything about her attire. Gloria just saw my fit and pretty girlfriend, then decided that she just didn’t like her outfit. How ridiculous and unprofessional.
Course was great, greens played very well. I just can not get over the rude and disrespectful nature of Gloria. If Willowcreek knows what’s good for them, then they will get rid of gloria as soon as possible.
Worth playing
Nice course at a good price. Having been my first time playing this course, the streams running through the course caught me off guard a couple of times. I will play this course again with hopefully less issues with the streams.
Rude staff
The lady at checkin was rude as can be, they posted tee times between 3-4pm for $12 a piece. When we arrived she immediately gets mad at us and states that Wednesday it’s full price until 4. Unfortunately that’s not my problem, the course manager should’ve communicated that to golf now. Instead she acts like they have nothing to do with golf now, when in reality they do. Golf now doesn’t just pick random courses and send out tee times.
Slow 5somes
There was a fivesome about 6 groups in front of us holding up the whole course. They had 2-3 empty holes in front of them. The ranger did nothing about it except saying to us that it's stacked up in front. Greens are in great shape as are the fairways. Tee boxes need some attention - lots of bare spots and sloping at edges.
Nice course.
Good condition, lush fairways, greens are relatively flat and rolled true. Great course for a liesurely round. Not particularly challenging but a lot of fun.
Pace of play shows they need a marshall
Golfed with two others walking. We knew we were in trouble when we had 3 groups on No 2. No Marshal to be seen. At the 5th we had 3 groups on the tee waiting for the green to clear. Gave up after 9 and at 2 hours 55 minutes. One would think "charge a little more and marshal the course". It is a nice course but who wants to be 5 1/2 hours or more and waiting on every hole.
A little slow ...
Had a 2:00 tee time and knew we would be pushing it to get finished before sun down so I was really happy that we were able to get off 15 minutes early. The downside was that there were 2 fivesomes ahead of us and the pace of play was really slow. Was able to finish but it was after 6:00 and the last shots to the green were hard to follow because of the twilight.
First time playing Willow Creek and the layout was good, the greens rolled true but the fiarways really hadn't fluffed up like a couple of the other courses that we have been playing around Sun CIty and Sun City West. It was a great value through Golf Now / Tee Off so overall it was an OK experience.
