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.

First Time Playing

Twisting Fairways and Challenging Greens!

The golf course staff is friendly and very helpful. The course is well maintained for a public course. Don't be fooled, the fairways are not all straight! The greens are challenging and the pin placements are as well.

Fees on Golf Now are just about right for this course, would not pay regular wall-up rates for this course. The rental carts are clean and well maintained.

Had a great day, will definitely be back!

First time, will play again.

Enjoyable fun course, not a lot of water, but a lot of bunkers. The bunkers can come into play from any tee box. Sand in bunkers was enough, to play a real sand shot. Greens were in good condition, although they did not take brakes very well. Fareways were in Great Condition, with the rough cut short and dry.

Good value

Greens are in good shape and putted true. A little slow but had had a week of rain. Greens are still hard and don't hold approach shots real well, but overall it is an enjoyable lay-out with wide fairways but a number of bunkers to negotiate.

Nice course

The course is good shape for the time of year. Greens run smooth. Back nine greens different than the front which makes it more challenging.

Wide Open with Nice Greens

Typical Sun City Rec Course that is wide open and easy to navigate for first-timers. Played from "rattlesnake" tees, about 6500, but played shorter due to hard fairways. Would go back at this price.

Earn your score!

Fun course as always. Greens a bit firm but overall in good shape.
Tough to read with many undulations. You will have to play well to score well with the firmness of the greens. They are not real receptive to shots into and around the greens. Make for an interesting round. Enjoyed the day and for the price you can't beat it. Be thankful Sun City is allowing public play. Reasonable pricing and very nice conditions.

Slow play, no marshalls

I think that this was the second time we had to play behind a fivesome and because play was so slow, we couldn't finish the round. If this is going to be their policy, I doubt that we will play here again in spite of the special price we got.

The course was well maintained especially the greens. I enjoyed the course but check in was extremely slow.

Sun City South is an good course that was well maintained. The greens were in great shape and difficult to putt due to the undulations and sloping. The pace of play was a little slow but I enjoyed my round.

Wide areas are forgiving

Course is in really nice shape with nicely kept bunkers strategically placed and enought trees on eac side of fair way to make errant shots interesting. Has great practice areas for chipping putting and a range with reasonable priced bucket costs. This course gets an easy 9 out of 10 rating from me.

Played here before and will again.

Course was in good shape. Pace of play was a little slow and there were no rangers. Yardage markers were easy to see, but flagstick colors caused a little confusion. I would play here again.

Course in great shape!

The overseeding is really nice at this course. The rough has been cut and is very playable, the fairways are beautiful, and the greens are smooth and receptive. I was a little disappointed that there was no beverage cart on a busy Saturday.

Overall, the course was fun to play. I will certainly be back!

Stay in fairway, the roughs are deep.

I have played many courses in the sun city area and have found this course to be a little longer in yardage. The greens were in need of cutting.

Older, well maintained and just plain fun to play

The winter grass is coming in beautifully. The old trees line the fairway making center shots critical to your success. An enjoyable test of your game.
