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.

Fun day

Course was in excellent condition. Went off on time and the only knock is that they only let you hit off mats for warm up. Worst possible way to warm up and I won't make that mistake again. Got held up by the course maintenance crew making the turn while they finished work on the 10th hole but the delay wasn't too bad.

Great value

I’ve played this course for 8 years. It is in the best shape I’ve seen it.

Must have a new greens keeper.

Great value.

I’ll be back soon!

Marshall Steals My Cellphone!!!!

I never write bad reviews, but this one is necessary. I just read all of the reviews and noticed that I am not the only person that have issues with the employees.

MARSHAL STEALS MY CELLPHONE!!!!

I have been playing at Sugar Hill Golf Club for over 15 years, but after my experience today I will not be back.

Before I paid, I asked if I could play by myself since they were not very busy. They said that I could tee off by myself at 1:20. They had a twosome at 1:30 and no one after that until 1:50. I was on the back nine with a twosome in front of me and the closest players were 4 holes behind me. I WAS NOT HOLDING ANYONE UP!!! I shanked my tee shot so I dropped another ball and hit it. The Marshall came up behind me and said that I can only play 1 ball. I told him that I hit one in the woods so I had to take a drop. He said that I needed to go look for the ball and then drop where it went in. I thought he was joking at first, but then he said it again as he drove away. I hit 2 the next time to be a smart aleck so he came back by and told me to give him the golf cart key. I was in shock that this was happening so I put the key in my pocket and went to finish the hole. He started raising his voice at me and then he STOLE MY CELLPHONE. I told him not to take my phone and he said that I can it get back from his manager. I finished the round and got my phone back, but the manager was just as rude as the Marshal. I told the Manager that I raked every bunker that I was in and sanded all of my ball marks and was wondering why he was so concerned about me hitting more than one ball, especially since I was not holding anybody up.

Being more friendly and using common sense might help your golf club fill up your tee times.

First Time Playing

Sugar hill

The starters seemed a little lost and confused. You can’t take your cart to the driving range or chipping green. Told me to take a cart I come back after driving range they give me another one with garbage in it still and torn seats. Greens were in great shape not a lover of front 9 layout but back 9 definitely good. Not sure I’ll be returning.
