Excellent course features

The course was in excellent shape, especially the tee boxes. The tee boxes had all new lush green grass. With a four-some it was a bit difficult to finish play in four hours or so. It took us about 4 hours and 45 minutes.

Great golfing getaway

I took advantage of a great price on a Golf Now tee time opportunity. It was a last minute decision and I needed to get out and enjoy the weather. I thought for the price, the greens would be in some form of transition. I arrived and the driving range was closed due to the recent rains; which was understandable. I was suprised to find the greens in good condition and receptive to shots which were struck properly. The putts rolled very true. The great thing about Sugar Tree is you can go play golf and not listen to highway noise or planes flying overhead. It is a great place to enjoy golf and nature.

I understand your concern about being paired up. On busy days it is course policy to pair up singles. February 7th was a very busy day with over 140 players on the course. To ensure you are able to play as a single you will need to play at a non peak time. Please call ahead if you request to play as a single. My golf shop staff will schedule your tee time accordingly. Thank you for playing SugarTree.

Best course for the money this side of the rockies

I try to play this outstanding layout twice a month. Due to work I haven't been able to play it for 6 weeks.
I found the course in good shape, the greens were unexpectantly in better shape than I thought they would be fast and true. If this course was located anywhere within the confines of Dallas/FTW they could charge 4times what they do and it would be a bargain.

Beautiful, fun course

I took the wife and 3 year old son out for a round. I found a great deal on Golfnow that was well worth the money. Normally on a Sunday it's about $50 (which is worth it), but I got in for $23. Many great features (elevations, water, and trees, ect.).

Glad I came back

It's been years since I played Sugar Tree- and it was nice to go back. The course was in good condition and the greens were such that you had a chance to make a putt on every green. It won't be nearly so long before I go back out to this nice course.

Great condition and fun to play

Shot makers course that keep you coming back time and time again. I rate 4 stars only because I save 5 stars for premium/resort courses that are just perfect. Greens were greatly improved since I played here in April and are back to their normal condition that they're known for. This is my favorite course West of DFW.

Beautiful

One of the most beautiful courses I've ever played on.
Player must be very accurate for this course.
There was a lot of doglegs and water. Most of the doglegs were to the left.

Beautiful course, great value

SugarTree is a little off the beaten path but is loaded with character and challenging holes. Loads of drinking water stationed around the course and a phone on 9 tee box makes the turn pretty seemless if you want food. Several holes have signature hole water features that are really striking. The best being 12 and 18. Lots of wildlife including (if you can believe it) Tarantulas walking all over the 16th green on one round I played.
