Great even during winter conditions.

It was a little wet, and that would be my only complaint as far as irrigation issues.

Pace of play awful

Almost 3 hours to play nine holes is unacceptable there was no Marshall on the course speeding up the pace of play that we saw

There are a lot of options in the Charlotte area but Old Sycamore is definitely a must place. The course is in great condition and the staff could not be more friendly.

Trash

Slowest pace of play ever, on the carts it says “MAX 15 minutes per hole” it took 15 for the people in front of me to find there balls. Slower than paint drying. Greens are fast. Staff is whatever. The golf cart I had had no charge on it, was very annoying going 1mph in my cart the entire time. I bought 18, I left after 9. Hot garbage of a course.

Short Grass

I enjoy the Course but like most courses the Bermuda fairways are cut too tight. I know it is good for the energy to go to the roots in the winter but I wish all the courses would keep the dormant Bermuda grass at an inch or so.... WHY do you keep it so close cut????

Sloppy fairways, fast greens

A cold, dreary day, fairways were sloppy in spots after overnight rains, but greens were speedy. Need to wait for drier conditions.

Overpriced

Played a 5 hour round on a Saturday. The electric carts are about to die. The round was cart path only but most of the holes could have been driven. Decent layout and greens were in good condition but will never play again on a Weekend. Better value courses in the area.

Why play here?

Don't believe those good reviews. Evidently written by the pro staff. Course conditions from tee to green terrible. They should call it Olde Syc Mud Hole. Not worth the money. Too many other courses around with better conditions and less money.

Still over watering the entire course

Great layout, excellent staff, but horrible course conditions mainly due to self-inflected over watering.

Unacceptable Pace of Play

FYI, this course aims for a five hour round of golf (2hr 15min per nine). Unfortunately, they book tee times nine (9) minutes apart. With so many people on the course, and so many amateur golfers "going for the green" on the par 5s, it turns into 2h 30 minutes per nine. I walked off the course after finishing the front nine since there was no possible way to get more that a few holes in with the sunset arriving around 5:13 pm.

The high volume of golfers also appears to be stressing the greens excessively. While there will always be spike marks on any green, there were dozens on nearly every green, and unrepaired divots near the front of the greens. I fixed at least one or two divots from previous golfers on every green.

It's a scenic course, but if you don't have a full day to devote to a leisurely round of golf, you will need to look elsewhere.

Terrible Logistics

The course had a severe lack of golf carts. We teed off over half an hour late because there were no carts available. After 9 holes, we had to change carts and the 2nd cart did not last the entire back 9.
