Willowcreek Golf Course in Sun City has one regulation length 18-hole course, the Willowcreek Course, as well as one executive length course, the Willowbrook Course. The traditional layout of the Willowcreek Course features three lakes that form water hazards that come into play on four holes. The course is relatively flat but there are some minor rolling hills that cause uneven lies. The fairways and greens are consistently in good condition on both courses and they are both considered very user-friendly. The Willowcreek Golf Course facility used to be private but it is now open to the public.

Rude staff

The lady at checkin was rude as can be, they posted tee times between 3-4pm for $12 a piece. When we arrived she immediately gets mad at us and states that Wednesday it’s full price until 4. Unfortunately that’s not my problem, the course manager should’ve communicated that to golf now. Instead she acts like they have nothing to do with golf now, when in reality they do. Golf now doesn’t just pick random courses and send out tee times.

Walked

Slow 5somes

There was a fivesome about 6 groups in front of us holding up the whole course. They had 2-3 empty holes in front of them. The ranger did nothing about it except saying to us that it's stacked up in front. Greens are in great shape as are the fairways. Tee boxes need some attention - lots of bare spots and sloping at edges.

Pace of play shows they need a marshall

Golfed with two others walking. We knew we were in trouble when we had 3 groups on No 2. No Marshal to be seen. At the 5th we had 3 groups on the tee waiting for the green to clear. Gave up after 9 and at 2 hours 55 minutes. One would think "charge a little more and marshal the course". It is a nice course but who wants to be 5 1/2 hours or more and waiting on every hole.

Nice course.

Good condition, lush fairways, greens are relatively flat and rolled true. Great course for a liesurely round. Not particularly challenging but a lot of fun.

A little slow ...

Had a 2:00 tee time and knew we would be pushing it to get finished before sun down so I was really happy that we were able to get off 15 minutes early. The downside was that there were 2 fivesomes ahead of us and the pace of play was really slow. Was able to finish but it was after 6:00 and the last shots to the green were hard to follow because of the twilight.

First time playing Willow Creek and the layout was good, the greens rolled true but the fiarways really hadn't fluffed up like a couple of the other courses that we have been playing around Sun CIty and Sun City West. It was a great value through Golf Now / Tee Off so overall it was an OK experience.

Willowcreek - Plays very Fair

Greens, although small were true, pin placement was good, fairways in great shape, sand traps excellent -unfortunately go very familiar with them:), Tee boxes great, had a great time but the pace of play was so bad we had to replay the front 9 just to try to get in 18 as the people in front of us took forever, need a ranger to monitor pace of play

Poor Management

Golf course is a decent layout but management and pro shop people skills are horrible.
Not just a one time negitive experience, but everytime negitive. Talking with other golfers there, most agree. STAY AWAY if your a positive upbeat person.
