Sweetwater

Track plays through a subdivision. New clubhouse not completed as of this date and therefore there are no amenities. Course needs some loving care, but still fun to play. Holes # 1 and 18 need to be reconfigured in the future. It is in my rotation.

Sweetwater

A oldie but goodie. Great layout that needs some tender loving care. Holes 1 and 18 need to be reconfigured. Bunkers are sloppy and no rakes present.

No golf carts

Drove 45 minutes with foursome only to find our tee time wasn’t worth anything because they had no golf carts available

Rough stuff

Course was in pretty bad shape, the fairways were ok at best. Some of the greens were actually very nice, but some were atrocious. Clubhouse is under construction and it seems the course is kind of under repair.
The only guy in staff was accommodating and polite, and the hotdogs were hot, drinks were cold.
Would not play again though.
Be sure and find out the gate code 1st so you don't have to sit at the residence gate and look like a dumb dumb.

Been Better

Quality was nowhere near when I played a few months ago. Many greens were brunt out. Clubhouse still not finished. Paid $45 online and sign when leaving says to enquire directly about 50% off rounds.

Not bad

Very friendly professional welcome on arrival, brand new golf carts, pace was slow but that was mainly because it was a Friday afternoon and I was happy to play on my own instead of team up with the group in front. Some of the fairways are tight but it was decent value for money

Not so "sweet" needs more TLC

Course needs lots of TLC. The greens, tee box, collapsed bridge to tee box...the list goes on. The 9th hole is the worst since the built condos all around the 9th and the 18th green.

Private course but poor conditions

The price was okay and the layout was pretty playable and interesting. However, the tee boxes were very poor, bunkers not really playable (no rakes in any bunkers), fairways were thin and inconsistent, greens were decent. Overall, I wouldn't return or recommend this course.

Needs some major TLC

I get it their clubhouse is under construction, but at least put up a temporary pro shop that has water, Gatorade, some sort of prepared food, balls, tees, gloves, etc. The course was extremely tight, lots of trees, houses VERY close, bunkers hard as a rock, and some of the tee boxes were shaped like a turtle shell and sandy. Aside from that, the other tee boxes were good enough to find a decent spot to tee off from, fairways were in good shape, and greens were very receptive and riled somewhat true. I would not go back or recommend playing there at least until their facility has been completed and all of their equipment is pulled into some sort of maintenance shop (currently scattered along the sides of the starting and finishing holes).

Very Disappointed

This was my first time playing this course, and at this point, unless course conditions drastically change, it will be my last time playing it! These course conditions, especially the greens, were totally unacceptable and disappointing! It appears that the course has been neglected for years. The overall layout of the course was acceptable, except for hole number one, it needs to be redesigned and lengthened. However, some of the holes on the back nine had some nice hills and were an unexpected surprise!
