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.

Fantastic conditions, Big Value

Such a wonderful day for Golf and that the Course is in ideal shape when I met up W/Chris, Leroy & Ron made the round Great. It's January & the time of year to highlight what a course can be and The Staff trully deserve Kuddos for the results. Even the bunkering sand is ideal and allowed good shots if U know how to play out of 'em. The undulating Greens seemed trickier onthe back nine and all the fairways looked beautiful carving Their way through the dormant grass. Fantastic break 4Me getting THIS course on a Golf Now Hot Deal -WOW, I'll be be back Folks. Let US All Enjoy the New Year(!)& B Well.

Wonderful Course

I rarely take the time to write reviews, but in this case I had to write one simply because of the sand traps which had REAL SAND in them!! The sand was full, soft, fluffy, and deep -- the kind of sand you would dream of if you had to end up in a sand trap :) Too often in Arizona, and on too many courses in Arizona, the sand traps are not well maintained. Kudos to the greens keeper and superintendent at Sun City South!!

Great Day

They're letting the fairways dye for overseeding so I

liked all the extra roll. Staff is always nice and paired

me with extra nice man. I consider this and SC North

my favorite courses to play. Not to hard and wide

fairways, Don't have to worry about hitting houses'.

Choose tees wisely

Great golf course. Choice of tee box should be considered before round. Played white tees and it was a challenge. I'm a 11 handicap and had to avoid fairway bunkers in my driving distance. Great course great layout

Favorite course

Fairways ready for overseed so not very much grass

but still playable. New club house redone sand traps.

Great Value. Friendly staff. New practice and good

new putting green. Wide fairways. What's not to like!

New clubhouse great addition...

The course was in decent shape given it was aerated not too long ago. There are a few holes ( 1 and 14 ) that have more barren spots in the fairways due to the rye grass die-out. The greens were true and rolled at a moderate pace. The day I played the grounds crew was adding sand to some of the traps to the point of overfilling. The new clubhouse is a fine addition and even if the snack bar is shut down for the day, the ice machine is available for use HOORAY!!!!

Another Great Day

Fairways a little brown and drying out so got a lot of

roll. Redoing a lot of the traps and we now have a new

clubhouse. As always we were treated great. Played in

less than 3 hours. Has to be one of the best bargains

in this area.

Careful

I made a tee time through Golf Now and later in the week the price dropped. When I arrived at the course, the starter didn't have my name on the tee sheet. This happens a lot in Sun City.

Unkempt

I’m fairly sure there were only 2 staff on duty when we arrived for our 1:30 tee time, and that is for the entire facility. A new clubhouse is under construction but yet to open, so a trailer serves as everything. The rough was sparse and the fairways not clearly delineated, so direction of play off the tee was an issue on many holes. We also had trouble finding the 10th tee, as no signage indicated that we had to cross a roadway. Greens were not consistent in speed. Several carts, albeit with blue flags on them, were driven onto green fringes, and very able bodied players then got out and putted, etc. Dubious need. Many ball marks, divots and poorly raked bunkers. Almost Lastly, our score card already had another players score.....very bad karma. Lastly, a Trump 2020 flag was displayed on a property backing on to the course. It also stated “end the bu######t”. We all know Trump cheats at golf, ,making this flag inappropriate. Other reasons come to mind as well. Resist.

Only one problem

Love the course but if you want a perfect rating across the board either put more than a spoonful of sand in the bunkers or pave over them. As they are they are nearly unplayable, ruining an otherwise enjoyable round.
