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.

Not worth it

I expect play to be slow after overseed and with cart path only. What I don't expect is to tee off and have someone drive up and say "they told me to join you" making our walking foursome a fivesome with a cart. 2 hours and 45 minutes for the front nine was enough for me so I walked off the course. Typical Sun City course.

Looking pretty good

Played on Sat afternoon and had to wait on every shot. Round was 5 hours.

Course is hairy--fairways are like rough and greens are very slow. But this makes sense given the fact that they are growing it out after overseeding. Once they are cut again they should be very good.

Prices were still $29 walking through the end of this month, so value was excellent

Downright terrible

The lady behind the counter is probably the slowest most inept person I’ve ever seen use any piece of technology. I’ve stood in line waiting to get a bucket or play a round while she’s either on the phone or taking forever to figure out how to set up tee times. Couple the counter’s incredible lack of customer service with their already low quality course and I’ll never play here again. Wouldn’t even go if I was paid to play there. They clearly need to get a staff that is able to utilize computers and have more speed than a sloth.

SC Willowcreek

Conditions were good for the round. The greens were very good and rolling well. Fairways were good but the rough on the back nine was very thick.

One of Best in the West

Can't beat this course for the summertime. It's in good shape and great rates. Green are very good and so is the course.
Will definitely be playing more this summer.

Awesome!

Greens rolled pure and held nicely. Fairways and tees in great shape! Excellent sun city course and in much better shape than it has been in the past. Pace, carts, and 5somes are a thing as always in Sun City…but aside from that, this one is at the top of Sun City courses.

Willow creek- it had been 47 years since I played there. Greens were pure. Bermuda fairways thick and mowed tight. Tees- full of turf. I walked at 1:50. Just played 9 but finished at 3:00. Definite play again
