Sweetwater Golf & Country Club

I was prepared for there to be no driving range, but there was also no putting green, so there was no way to prepare properly. First hole is a joke (200-yard par 4?), houses directly off the green, and the approach on 9 was even closer to windows. If I was a high-handicapper, I'd be scared to death here.

Conditions were OK, and there were hardly any other players on the course (Thursday afternoon), so pace of play was excellent. One hole had a temporary green, but that was OK.

This course was slightly redesigned some years back after they took out the clubhouse, tennis courts, driving range, etc., to make room for more houses.

I knew they were working on the course and clubhouse. Wasn't too bad. I'd go back again.

I set up a teatime for two. I had a last-minute cancellation and called and asked if I could just play by myself and get a refund for the other player. I was threatened with a lawsuit if I put a review on GolfNow. Just keep this in mind if you plan on playing here.

I almost cancelled because of the recent negative feedback on the course. There are a couple problems, a couple of greens need some work. Sand traps were not racked out and no rakes were there to fix them after you hit.

Near the end of my round there people working on them and I was in one after the work that was in great shape. Clubhouse was almost finished and the checkin was in a temporary location and the only refreshments was water and soft drinks.

Restrooms were available.

Fairways were in good shape for the most part, definitely playable. I will play there again.

I liked the course and it was great looking course!! Maybe years ago it was bad but now they have built new pro shop. (Not finished) but can tell it will be beautiful!! Glad I didn’t go from past reviews!!

Work being done to a couple greens. Great condition compared to others in this area.

Course is under new ownership and still needs a lot of work. Clubhouse was not open yet, but looks like it will be nice when it is. The greens are very slow, can missing grass in some spots. Fairways and tee boxes need more grass and less weeds.

Fun course. Decent shape. Would play again but it’s not part of the GHIN system so my scores don’t count. Get it included and I’ll be back.

Until such time as all renovations on both the course and clubhouse completed, I do not advise this course. In the current condition fees need to be greatly reduced and transparency shared about no pro shop, no driving range and no restaurant. Website deceptive and exaggerated for available amenities. Shame on Sweetwater County Club!!

The worst condition I’ve ever seen a golf course greens were the speed of the fairways, weeds everywhere honestly the worst course I’ve ever played.

Although the layout is great this course needs to be shut down and reopened with new ownership. The fairways are just poor and the greens are terrible. Hole 6 is a disaster as they let the green go and tried to cut a green in the middle of the fairway. This really should be a $20 track and nothing more. With all the other courses nearby, your money will be better spent elsewhere. No amenities at all!

No free beer. Tight fairways/course. No free beer though. Definitely advertised.

Greeter/starter was superb and friendly. However the plyboard wooden signs at the clubhouse don’t get your hopes up. When you’re saving on quality signs, you’re saving on a lot more. Course layout has so much potential. Reminded me of courses up north. However overall conditions were lacking quality. Tee boxes are almost all weeds, no grass. Some bunkers had minimal sand, some greens were scalped. Layout however is fun and with several par 5s, you can score. Don’t know who’s managing the course or club, but change them out. You have a potential gem and social hub there but not when you’re in deep cut back mode as you stop having vision.

This is a good solid track! I enjoy playing here! But, the greens need some TLC!
