The Sun City South Golf Course is normally a private club but during the summer months, public play is allowed. The course has a traditional layout with four sets of teeboxes for a variety of different golfing options, which allow golfers to work on a range of different handicaps. The golf course has a fair share of challenges with several sand bunkers and plenty of trees scattered throughout. There are also out-of-bounds stakes providing more difficulty. Water hazards come into play on some holes as well. The Sun City South Golf Course facility has a putting green and chipping area for golfers to use in addition to the course.

Greenest I’ve Seen the Course

Check in staff always friendly. Greenest the course has been. Greens a little slow but in good shape. Rough actually green as well. Played in 3:30. Like the layout.

Disappointed Marine

1pm tee time. Arrived at 11. Asked Chuck in golf shop if he could get me out sooner. “No chance too busy “ was his reply. Went to the range ( dead and almost no grass). Watched threesome after threesome tee off I could have played with mixed in with numerous fivesomes Chuck was sending out. Left without playing.

No need to overseed

This course is in great shape now, as a concerned citizen golfer I do not see the need to throw thousands of gallons of water on this or any other golf course in the valley. Let us cutback on this nonsense…

Great course

I really enjoyed the round of golf. The reason I scored the golf ammenies is because it was late in the afternoon.

Course mgmt is horrible and has been

I don't know why they've allowed a great track to fall into such bad shape. They haven't mowed the rough in almost 2 months and it greatly diminishes the quality. Lost first ball on opening tee shot. No one behind me so I searched for quite awhile with no luck fire my bright yellow ball. This has become the standard for rough at North and Willowcreek too. If they need workers why not post a want ad rather than lose their hard fought reputation for quality. Won't play here again until rough is resolved.

PLEASE MOW THE ROUGH!!!

Love this course but can't play it again until they do better routine maintenance and mow the rough. This isn't a major, it's sun city golf.

Do not play here unless you can hit every fairway or bring your personal spotter.

Maybe after overseed in 2 months.

Better to miss the fairway…

The fall overseeding rye grass is dying out leaving lots of bare spots in the fairways. Green and tees are in great shape. Can’t say bad or good about the sand traps because I was lucky enough to avoid them this round…..

Would give 5 stars but...

It's apparent that most courses have decided Covid is over, with rakes and ball washers back on course and sharing carts again.

I wish sun city courses would likewise include the cart with the Hot Deal payment like 99% of all other local courses.
