Rating 71.6

Nestled in the foothills of the north Georgia mountains, Sugar Hill Golf Club tumbles across elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic. The course is artfully laid across the rolling hills, weaving through stands of mature trees, to provide it with the maximum level of challenge and the best views. The natural contours played a role in determining the placement of the bunkers around the greens and fairways as well as shaping the sharp doglegs. As if the golf course didn't already have enough challenges, there are also deep grass canyons and water hazards to contend with. The par-4 fifth and the par-3 12th are memorable water holes, both featuring large lakes that lurk in front of the greens. Sugar Hill G.C. is known as one of the toughest golf courses in the area.

Sugar Hill? - Go Anywhere Else

Over the years, I’ve continued to give this course a chance everything 3-4 years. Nothing will ever change the location. However, it’s just a bad course location. Nothing but hills. Everything is either up or down. Nothing flat. Plus, so many fairways cart path only. Why? Hadn’t rained in several days. Over the top. The gps would tell you once you entered a restricted zone. Some signage yet limited placement. Most cart path restriction experience when hadn’t rained in several days. And, starter was simply disrespectful and rude. Completely uncalled for situation.

My friend had never played and, after playing, will never play again. He’s a pretty decent golfer!

The road had more grass on it than the fairways

The greens were in decent shape but the rest of the course was harder than the paved road you drove up on. The staff was not very friendly but not overly rude. Bunkers all play as GIR which tells you their condition. Hope 2 for instance had 4 different roped off areas down the fairway. If you needed to lay up there was nowhere to hit it.

Par 3s were fairly nice I must say and even though hole 9 is quirky I liked that hole.

Really fun course with friendly people

This course has a very hilly layout and it’s a ton of fun. You get some great views from this course. It’s challenging for any handicap the course will punish you if you make a mistake. I would definitely come back with some friends. The staff is very friendly as well

Nice course, rolling hills, and challenging shot making

I like this course but it has a lot of challenging shots so it can get a bit slow to play as the day goes on.

It is winter right now, so the fairways are a bit thin, some tee boxes are rough, but the greens are in great shape. I played a high end course last week and it was the same.

Your game will definitely be challenged as there are a good many tee shots where you have to hit to a landing area that is not huge. I don't usually hit my driver until the 6th hole.

It is a fun course.

Not going back

Pace of play was absolutely awful. Took 3 hours just to play the front 9, so I left after that. Absolutely hated the course layout as well
