Hillcrest Golf Club at Sun City West

A Dusty dirty old golf course that needs lots of TLC. Started me on #10 when finished with back nine went over to #1 were their was 2 foursome waiting to tee off from their beginners golf school? They told me to replay the back nine if I didn't want to wait!!!??? I won't be back!!! Stay away from this dirty dust old course.

Unfortunately the course is dated. Some great challenging holes. Greens in Great shape. Will play it again if we get a deal on green fees but not worth full price fees.

Really like course design and friendliness of staff.

On scale of 1-10: Greens 10; Fairways 9; Tees 8; Cart Path 5 but Rustic. There was an over watering issue but the repair parts are on order. We enjoy playing here.

Worst conditions we ever played at Hillcrest. Looks like the course was flooded despite the last rain in Phoenix being 115 days back. Mud all over the place and bare spots instead of rough. Green on no 8 unputtable due to bird droppings. Droppings also found on most fairways.

Kind of disappointed with Hillcrest this year. It had always been a little on the rough side but it seems like they have let things go a little more this year. If you're not in the fairway when you drive, it is hard pan almost everywhere. Also, the sprinkler system must be out of wack because there were some very sloppy parts on several fairways. Pace of play was close to 4 hrs 45 minutes which is pretty slow. If not for the beauty of the course layout, the day would have been a total loss. Might play it again if I can get a really low rate but I wouldn't necessarily recommend it to my golfing buddies.

We played here a couple years ago and really enjoyed the round. This time I found the course had quite a very big wet spots. By spots I mean 30-40 areas and there were quite a few. The sandtraps need work too. A couple were really rocky needing more sound and they hadn’t been raked in awhile. This course is a great layout but the quality has dropped. I will definitely try again but I hope this is just maybe some watering issues.

It’s in a little worse shape each time I play it, but the staff is great and the price is generally right.

Greens were bumpy and players did not fix ball marks, no bar cart, overpriced for having no amenities and no bathrooms on the course.

No bar cart, grass was under kept, low quality hitting mats on top of real grass at the driving range, no restrooms throughout the course, overall it had no amenities for the higher price and was not even comparable to bellair a cheaper and nicer course all around. Needs major change.

First 12 holes quick but last 6 slow. Good layout but course does need some rain/work.
