Hillcrest Golf Club at Sun City West

Course is in relatively good shape. Bunkers could use some work as they are pretty hard.

Only complaint is they allowed a twosome to jump in front of us as they said they were low handicap golfers. The only problem is they didn’t follow them so they could play through other groups in front of us so we were waiting on every hole. Very disappointed that they would allow their good buddies to jump in.

We played at 2ish and finished. Everything about the course was great including the difficulty! The rough wasn’t the best but everything else was very well taken care of. We will return!

First time playing the course this year and I was pleasantly surprised on how good of shape the course. Got paired with a very nice guy from Kansas City. Will play again later this week.

Great day out! I took my two kids. My daughter just rode in the cart. The other two singles with us were fun and we all had a great time together!

Course is in pretty good shape.. Greens were quick and fair. Nice chipping area.

I haven't played here in a few years. Friends decided to go back and give it a try. I will say it has somewhat improved, but still not great. Greens are still very hard. The ball bounces and rolls off. I generally hit high and my ball will usually stop very close to my ball mark. Not here. Greens do not putt true. The ball almost wobbles to the hole. Maybe it is from all the cleat marks from shoes as the course is very busy. Fairways vary. Some are ok, but others are dry with the grass cut too close so the ball just wanders around as it looses speed. Most times towards the edges near the hazards, so good shots are punished. Sand traps are just traps. No sand. Mostly just dirt and rocks. Bird droppings are everywhere. Be careful of the 14th hole par 3. The birds use this place as their toilet. It was almost completely covered in droppings.

This course has the best layout, for recreational golfers. Plays long, even for short holes....water holes galore, big slick greens, that look like Astro turf. Well maintained!!

Wide fairways, that just make you only wish, you had 10 mph more club head speed.

It's a fun course, with a great staff

Course was in decent shape. Greens were rolling well. My only complaint was when I got to the back nine it was very crowded and slow. I was told that the carts had to be back in by 5:45 and there was no was I would finish the round so I quit after 14 holes.

Back 9 is excellent.
Need more signs on the tee boxes.
All in all, a fun afternoon.

I played this course 47yrs ago with my dad. Love the layout and #13 ,is such a nice hole with the Palms and sand traps.

Staff not very pleasant they moved my tee time up and basically told me my tee time was earlier than my tee time showed in my email.

Other than that. I had nice people to play with and had a good time.

Overall a fun course for the $$. The fairways greeens were great but the ruff was mostly dirt. It is also a bit difficult to get around since the way to the next hole is not clearly marked. Also the senior course is almost 6000 yards in length.

The fairways and greens were in great condition. Many of the greens are very challenging and that's great. My only complaint is the lack of cart paths and maintenance of the paths they have. Filling potholes would be great and wouldn't cost much.

The fairways and greens were in excellent condition. There seemed to be much barren hard pack ground around some greens though.

We hadn't golfed at Hillcrest for two years, and it was better than I remembered it. Approaches to greens were healthy and fairly soft compared to so many courses in the area that are hard ground or gravel. The pace was pretty good; we played 18 in about 4:15.

Fairways and greens in very good shape. Cart paths and outside areas in pretty rough shape. Overall look: A lot of areas have not been kept up very well. Price for play was very reasonable, considering the season.
