This course is tuff

I would say that this course is kept up as well if not better than any public course in Genesee county. And by far the toughest public course in Genesee county. Not pricey good bang for your buck

Sugarbush in gale force winds

Tough windy day at Sugarbush today (40 mpg gusts from the south; approx 1/2 (less) holes into the teeth). Course is in decent shape this early in the season. I’ve played it before and on a hot deal you can not go wrong here. Can play long from the tip, but it’s fair. Nice carts, full GRASS range and several practice green round this place off.

The new simulator bays in the bar area look amazing. I’ll be booking some time soon.

We also had lunch. Food is above average and priced correctly; service is good as well.

All in all if it wasn’t a hour drive for me I’d play this weekly.

Sugarbush fall

Played here a couple months ago and thought it was a great course with the only improvement area in the “pace of play”. Today my wife and I played and the course was it GREAT shape for this late in the season! Wife loved the colors on the trees, I liked that the greens rolled true. Didn’t seem too busy, and we played 18 in less than 4 hours. Caught up to a 4 some around the 6th and just played behind them the whole time. Sugarbush had a wedding reception going on today and everything looked beautiful. Clubhouse is newly renovated, new golf carts, re-doing a few tee boxes... these guys are putting money into the place, and I’ll be eager to see how it looks next year too! We’ll be back!

Sugarbush...How sweet it is

I'm so jealous of my fellow golfers that live near this awesome course. If I didn't live an hour away I would try to play here all the time. The clubhouse is nothing short of incredible. To top it off the beautiful electric carts have automatic parking brakes, super cool.

Very Impressive

I last played this course probably a decade ago and while I enjoyed it then I was blown away by the changes made since. The clubhouse is still undergoing some renovations, but what has been completed is very impressive including a series of golf simulators. The course itself was in fantastic shape in spite of preparing the grounds for fall/winter. It plays long, and you do have to hit your shots, but I wouldn’t consider it unfair for your average weekend hack while probably being rewarding for your scratch golfers as well (admittedly I have no idea what being a scratch golfer is like). The carts are fantastic, the staff was all very attentive and welcoming, and I am really looking forward to playing here again next season (hopefully without a global pandemic still lingering over our heads).

Out of town round

I was in town for a wedding and was recommended by a few people to come try Sugarbush out. I went off by myself around 845 and pace of play that early was great. Never waited on a shot or had anyone behind me. I live in Florida so I enjoyed the character the course had, different holes and doglegs. I really enjoyed the layout of the course. Overall the course was in good shape. The greens rolled great and with a bit of pace to them. Fairways, bunkers, and rough were all in good shape, only flaw I saw were some of the tee boxes were a little beat up but it looks as if they were aerating some of them to help fix that. Everyone in the pro shop was friendly and the food in the clubhouse was very good after the round. I'll make sure to come back for a round if I'm ever back in the area.
