First time playing

First time playing this course. The front nine layout is great and greens were in terrific condition. Fairways need work but I’ll trade that off for the greens condition. Back nine was rough but you can tell they are working on it. Staff was amazingly cordial and accommodating. We will be playing there again for sure.

Course Condition

Some of the greens were in bad shape. Staff should advise golfers of these conditions, especially when the green were air rated etc. Overall my round was great.

Course needs some time

There are many great things about this course. But the weather has deteriorated many of the greens and the fairways. Right now it is in rather poor shape. However, they plan to shut down part of the course for a few weeks and recede and water and with what they’ve already done for the course I’m sure they will have it back in tiptop shape in a few months.

I love this course

Great course and very long. All courses hurting from lack of rain in Florida but still Sugarmill doing better than most and fairways are basically fine. Dollar for dollar this place is great. Drive 30 miles to play Sugarmill 4 times/month .

Bring your driver !

Sugarmill Woods is a great layout and a long course . Great value here and I play all Tampa Region golf courses thus LISTEN UP ... the best value and best courses are NORTH of Tampa/St Pete and Homosassa, Fl has three of them .. World Woods (now Cabot Citrus Farms), Citrus National and Sugarmill Woods are all top ten NORTH REGION along with Glenlakes, Brooksville CC , and Lake Jovita. For those of you who can drive up the Veterans Expressway to see what good golf is like under $50 .. Congratulations .. if you can even go farther to Homosassa Springs and play the wonderful Plantation at Crystal River then you too can WAKE UP to great golf in the NORTH TAMPA REGION. I have given you the Top Ten under $50 in all Tampa so GO NORTH and thank me later . Sugarmill Woods is outstanding . (Saddlebrook is great too)

Slipping

i had played Sugarmill Woods earlier in the year and they were making great strides in rejuvenating the condition of the Greens on the back nine but for some reason they have slipped again into disrepair. Front nine greens are fast and green, back nine, seven greens are dead dying and burned out.

needs attention to qualify for rack rates
