About

Holes 18
Type Private
Style Traditional
Par 72
Length 6195 yards
Slope 118
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.

Smart "A"

Customer service in the club house was way below par.
The course was over booked with T times within 1 minute of each other (unheard of).
The course was in nice shape overall and the congestion was ok after the 9 hole, after a few people quite at the ninth.

Pretty Decent Course but Poor Management

Fairways and Tee boxes were pretty good. Pretty wide fairways. Greens were really really dry. Overall it wasn't too bad.

However, they don't seem to pay attention to GolfNow. I booked my tee time but when I showed up they had no carts. NONE. I ended up walking. But they had so many groups I saw with 5 or 6 golf carts, had several people not playing in these groups. I get covid 19 affects stuff but no reason to let non golfers take carts.

Watch out

There are quite the hidden fees. After paying the golf now fees, a $20 round came to $25, ok, good deal, right? Then if you want a cart, price doubles. So, if you need a cart because of health, you are now paying $52+. Way overpriced! For cart. Also very limited number of golf carts available, cannot reserve one, can only get one first come first serve, no guarantees. We happened to get the last 2 carts for the day. $25/cart!

Course Conditions

Tee boxes where in good condition, Fairways where nice but the Greens where slow & somewhat bumpy. Kinda disappointed with the Greens as it is PRIME TIME season and Rates are high. I won't play again until summer time when rates go down for this course.

This is a fun pretty straightforward golf course. Lay out is pretty basic but still fun. Fairways easy to hit and not a lot of danger. Greens were in good shape and rolled well

4 Star course for sure..

Coming out of the overseeding I was pleasantly surprised by the overall great condition the course was in. Still wonder why this is the only course in the Sun City regimen of courses that does not include a cart with its Deal Times....

Nice relaxed course

Good course for all types of golfers. Not super challenging which makes for a very relaxed round. Greens were decent rolling and there weren’t any dead fairway spots. I’ve been here before and I’ll be back as this place is great for the money.
