The Sun City South Golf Course is normally a private club but during the summer months, public play is allowed. The course has a traditional layout with four sets of teeboxes for a variety of different golfing options, which allow golfers to work on a range of different handicaps. The golf course has a fair share of challenges with several sand bunkers and plenty of trees scattered throughout. There are also out-of-bounds stakes providing more difficulty. Water hazards come into play on some holes as well. The Sun City South Golf Course facility has a putting green and chipping area for golfers to use in addition to the course.

RSCS money grabbing on GolfNow times

Love this course, have for years. But the Recreation Centers of Sun City that control this and 7 other courses have not returned to pre-covid inclusion of cart with Hot Deals. These courses have always been a good deal in the past but now a twosome pays for two tee time fees plus a sum equal to a third tee time fee for a shared cart. Can't understand why GolfNow let's then get away with charging additional fees on tee times allocated to them for their services.

Disappointed Marine

1pm tee time. Arrived at 11. Asked Chuck in golf shop if he could get me out sooner. “No chance too busy “ was his reply. Went to the range ( dead and almost no grass). Watched threesome after threesome tee off I could have played with mixed in with numerous fivesomes Chuck was sending out. Left without playing.

No need to overseed

This course is in great shape now, as a concerned citizen golfer I do not see the need to throw thousands of gallons of water on this or any other golf course in the valley. Let us cutback on this nonsense…

Better to miss the fairway…

The fall overseeding rye grass is dying out leaving lots of bare spots in the fairways. Green and tees are in great shape. Can’t say bad or good about the sand traps because I was lucky enough to avoid them this round…..

Would give 5 stars but...

It's apparent that most courses have decided Covid is over, with rakes and ball washers back on course and sharing carts again.
I wish sun city courses would likewise include the cart with the Hot Deal payment like 99% of all other local courses.
