"Great course"

10/20/26: Review by B-Man

Olde Sycamore is now one of the more dependable public courses for conditions and rates. It is a fun layout where you don't need driver off the tee very often and I've played it for over 2 decades. So it feels like an old friend when I get back here to play. The greens...

3/29/24 - Highland Creek Golf Club "Bad, stay away" Greens weren’t bad, fairways were as expected this time a year. Course was dry but carts on path only. We left after 5 holes, waiting 10+ mins per shot because the course was so packed, tee times were spaced and seems like they just wanted to make as much money as possible leaving golfers with a poor experience. Haven’t played here in over 10years and now I remember why. Allowing 2somes to go off back to back to back just isn’t it, pair them up so people don’t feel like they have to allow players to play through. We didn’t even try to get a raincheck, wasn’t worth it as we don’t plan to return. Read The Review
9/30/23 - Olde Sycamore Golf Plantation "Never going back" Great fairways but the greens here are absolute ridiculous, they should not charge anywhere near $79 bucks as this place isn’t worth it. Terrible terrible greens, some are near unplayable. I will never play here again and grew up in the area playing this course. I will also recommend to everyone I know who golfs to avoid here. They think because they are in a decent neighborhood they can charge these prices. Don’t play here, save your money! Read The Review
