first time

I played Sycamore Golf Club for the 1st time today and I loved it. I am 56 years old and played from the white tees. Considering the weather that we have had, I thought the fairways were in tremendous condition. The greens were very fast. I will be back

It was a wonderful day, course excellent, pace moved very well for a Friday....best part were the Sand Hill Cranes walking around. Looked like two yearlings.....they didn't seem to mind the company. And we rescued a baby raccoon who had fallen from an Oak tree. The staff and crew immediately met us on the course to take it to a local sanctuary....

A gem out west.

We love Sycamore G.C, If you need to gain some confidence in your game, try this course. Greens are subtle in their contours, the fairways are never burned out (new irrigation system installed 2020). Not many traps or trees. The only thing you have to put up with is rickety old carts. Worth the trip and fee.

Nice course.

Nice course in excellent condition. Not overly long or difficult but interesting enough. Great for those new to the game and seniors. Better players should break 80 easily.
