Course is an Excellent Value

It rained but the course drained well as was a challenge. The signature windmill hole was breath taking and equally as challenging. The greens were excellent. The overall golfing experience was great!

Exceptional condition with a challenging design!

The tee boxes, fairways, and greens are very well maintained. The greens are pristine. Super soft but pretty fast at the same time.

Great Course, Great Views

Wow. This is now my favorite course. This course is very challenging with lots of water, sand traps, rolling fairways and greens. I usually shoot in the 90's but shot a 130 on this course after shooting 52 on the front 9. Lots of doglegs and blind tee shots. The course is in great condition, the greens hold your approach shot and play somewhere between fast and slow. Despite my score I loved this course. The views are great, pace of play is perfect (played on a friday morning), and the staff is great. Played on a hot deal for $25 but even at the usual golfnow rate of $39 this would have been a reasonable deal. The course is a little out of the way in Lipan but only about 45 minutes from where I live in North Fort Worth. I will play this course as much as I can in the future. When I'm able to play in the 90"s on this course I will know that my game is in order.

In great shape!

The greens are in tip top shape, your ball sticks, none of this hitting the green short of the flag and flying off the back. Please fix your green divots! ...lol

Fairways are also in great shape!

Great layout!0802

Wonderful Experience

Sugar Tree is a little over an hour away from where I live, but it's worth the trip! The course is always in great shape, the greens are perfect, and the the fairways are great. The course is a great test. I don't have anything negative to say about this place.

Must Play

Hidden gem...take a day to leave the metro DFW area and enjoy the beautiful countryside and surprisingly lovely course layout. You will have to work the golf ball to score. Fantastic views, challenging shots. I recommend the experience.

A favorite of mine. Sits in an area defined by nature. Part of it is lined by the Brazos River.

A favorite of mine. Sits in an area defined by nature. No city or highway sounds so you feel like you're way out in the country. Part of it is lined by the Brazos River. Even if I have a terrible game, it's still worth the drive. I'll go every chance I get.

The most picturesque course in the area.

This course is the best maintained that I have played this year.
The greens are near perfect as are the fairways. It is about 35 minutes from my home but well worth the drive. The carts are in excellent condition and very clean. We played on a Monday morning and there was no one immediately ahead or behind us.A most enjoyable day.

Gorgeous course!

Course was in great shape. Greens were in great shape and rolled well. Very beautiful course. Make sure to bring some bug spray though. Seems like more bugs here than any other course I've played.
