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.

Greens

Greens were in terrible shape because of the sanding they just did. Sure would have been nice to know that before I booked the round. I might go back in a couple weeks to try it again

Aerated means plowed

The greens were aerated a week before and we’re the roughest greens I’ve ever seen. It will take at least a month to recover, if they can.

Aerated greens

As others have mentioned the greens have been an aerated condition for some time and given how long ago we were told they were aerated it was disappointing that the greens were basically unplayable. Some other areas were under repair. That said the course is in a beautiful location and the staff were friendly. All around pretty enjoyable except for the greens.

Greens had been aerated so they weren't true. Very hilly course. It was a hot humid day with heavy showers, So a bit uncomfortable day.

A little disappointed today

I have played Sugar Hill many times and I always enjoy the course, but today was different. I generally play with my partner and my service dog, but today my partner had other business and couldn’t come… Therefore, it was just me and my service dog and the gentleman at the counter made me pay $10 extra for my service dog which is against the law! He stated that my service dog was taking up a seat that another golfer could use and therefore would have to pay.... when I fly, my service dog takes up a seat on an airliner and never has to pay because the law states that he does not have to… They had plenty of carts, so there was no need to be so precise… I did speak to the golf pro and he said I was correct, but no one offered my $10 back.
