Rating 69.1

The 18-hole West Course at Sun City Lakes Golf Club is a private course with a traditional layout. The course is quite open and features a few interesting challenges. It is relatively flat, making it nice to walk although carts are available. More advanced players that mostly hit straight balls may not find the course challenging enough, but it is quite enjoyable for beginners and intermediate players. Notable holes on the course are the 3rd, 9th, and 18th since they can be played a few different ways. The Lakes West Golf Course facility, in addition to the course, has practice facilities including a putting green, chipping area, and driving range.

Nice course if you have a cart

I've avoided this course for years since they don't have more than a handful of rental carts available. Now I have the annual pass with a reserved cart I plan to play it more often. Tough course layout when windy but luckily winds were down today. Greens are not as undulating as other SC courses which gives you, at least the impression, of some flat spots on the greens. Tee boxes could use some maintenance but rest of course was in good shape. Pace on front nine was 2 hours plus: back 9 was quicker since group in front of us had quit after front side.

No power or pull carts available at course

Did not appreciate a 1 hour return trip home and could not play because the course did not have any power or pull carts available for our tee time which we showed up 30 minutes early for.

Be Prepared to Walk

Not very many carts available for two golf courses. None available for me when I arrived. Used a push-cart that was in very poor condition. Managed to get a cart at the turn. Fairways and Greens in good shape. Not much of a "rough", was just hard-pan grass as short as the fairway. Tee boxes were also hard-pan on the Par 3s making it hard to hit an iron.

Golfnow is a joke

Course was fine. Golfnow sucks donkey balls. Do NOT use them. They did an "upgrade" on their software and NOTHING works right now. In order to make a tee time, you have to call somebody in India and get put on hold for half hour. Golfnow SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!

Good for practice rounds

Fair value for the money in March. Easy course to walk also. Tee boxes are dry and hard, not overseeded. Greens were in better than average condition.
