Hillcrest Golf Club at Sun City West
About
Hillcrest Golf Club possesses a championship length course that offers a great variety of game options with five sets of tees. The course has a traditional design that features open fairways lined with trees, which put a premium on straight shots. The greens vary greatly with some that are relatively flat and medium sized and others that are quite large and dramatically sloped or multi-tiered. In addition to several sand bunkers, water hazards in the forms of lakes and ponds come into play. The signature hole is the par-5 13th, which has been touted by the Phoenix Gazette as being on of the best holes in the state. Hillcrest Golf Club not only has a dogleg around a lake, the hole requires an approach shot uphill to a green that is guarded by eight bunkers.

Loved these palms behind one of the greens. Photo submitted by gailmaher on 03/18/2013
Nice course
Enjoyed the course, staff very friendly along with good food. Only complaint would be the bunkers, lots of rocks and no sand.
Great course design
Course just a few weeks from overseeding. Fairways still a bit soggy in some areas. Greens were beautiful. Love the championship feel of the course. Outside of the fairways can be a little rough, but to be expected coming from one of the hottest summers. I enjoyed the round and planning on getting another tee time next week.
Used to be a great course
The greens, fairways and tee boxes were fine after just coming out of over seeding. The rest of the course has gone into disrepair....sadly. Some areas could be easily cleaned up plus a little armour-all on the carts would make a huge difference. It's a fun course to play and the green fees seem fair.
Great Value
Hillcrest offers challenging course and great overall experience. Truly a great value .
Good day. Too slow
Course is recovering from overseeding. Plenty of tough patches that seem to be improving. Huge negative was pace of play that marshall seemed indifferent to. Not sure I’d go back unless the rate was extremely affordable.
Horrible experience
This was by far the worst course I hve played at. The grass was bumpy, broken and the greens were not smooth. There is no evident cart path and you cannot drive on the fairways. The layout is wierd, confusing a bit and wind-y. The staff was not friendly and told us to pick up our balls 20 minutes before sunset because “they were closing”. Everything is very poorly taken care of to even the broken cement parking lot. Sad a place like this goes to ruins. Overall would never go back here and also the golf carts were gas which was a little stinkier than we anticipated.
Great course
Course is coming along nicely from overseeing. Still no carts on fairway, so it slows things down some, but still done 4 hours.
Green a work in progress, bumpy and slow.
Fun Course - was set for overseeing
Fun Course - course was shutting down for overseeing so it is what it is. Staff was awesome and pace of play was good. Back 9 is fun.
Great Layout bad conditions
I love the layout of this course but the conditions are little to be desired. If this course had some real TLC it could become a very nice course again.
A little rough!
Course had just opened and you could not drive on the fairways, rough only which was better than the cartpath only. Greens were quite bumpy and the sand traps have not been touched yet and they were hard as rock and some were been taken over by grass. Still enjoyed the round. We were aware of the “rough only” conditions.
Not Good at All
Course was in rough shape. Greens recently over seeded and still lots of sparse spots. Hole 9 most of the green looks like the surface of the moon instead of a putting surface . Although I did not hit into a greenside bunker, most of them were complete mud and had a lot of standing water in them. If the course maintenance cannot even get the sprinklers to not water the bunkers it would seem they just really don’t care. We Let the rangers know about why pace of play was slow and they did nothing. We left at hole 14 at the 4-hour mark. Was completely ridiculous. Have played here for many years and doubt I will be back based off n this experience at $70 to play. Was highly disappointed
