Rode the blues this morning 12/15/25 as part of the Golfmoose/Vivid outing under perfect weather conditions high 70s with maybe a one club breeze picking up on the back nine. Pop was great at 4 hrs 40 minutes for a 120 player outing. We hardly waited at all and kept up so the group behind was not waiting much. Played in group 1a joined by buddies Matt and Mark and joined by Peter.

Probably my 6th or 7th time playing here. Starting with the staff and practice facilities which were excellent. Big driving range on mats with a seperate large bunker/chipping area behind the range. Huge putting green which was great for a large outing and mirrored the speed of the greens.

Greens were pure and rolling true. Very shiny green greens that were maybe a 11 on the stimp. They were soft and receptive as I experienced a couple nice compressed irons spin back 10 feet or so. Most greens here are undulating and large and they can tuck some great pin positions here behind many big swales. Green rating 9/10

Fairways were in very good shape mainly lush with the occasional muddy spots left over from the rains. Rated 8.5/10

Blue tees mainly level and only hole 1 in the shade was soggy. Rated 8/10

Rough was bermuda based, mostly grabby but manageable and playable. Around the greens you need great touch out of this rough chipping wise. Rated 8/10.

Loved the bunkers here. Was 3/3 on greenside sand today. Perfect beach like material nicely raked and mostly fluffy. If you play here alot you know there are many stategic greenside and fairway bunkers to negioate. Rated 9/10.

I give the layout 9.5/10. Always love coming here to challenge myself. #3 and #16 are both strong par 3s with water features. A great ball strikers course that makes you work it both ways but many holes demand a slight fade off the tee.

Never miss an opportunity to play here if you can. Highly recommended. Thx Valencia CC I had a blast!

Rode the blacks this morning 12/8/25. Part of group 1B with buddies John, Ron and Matt in blustery wind conditions pretty steady 2 club + swirling wind with beautiful temps around 80 degrees. Pop about 5 hrs which isnt horrible for 120 player event.

This is the nicest that I have seen Sunset Hills.

Beautiful maybe 12 on the stimp fast pure greens cut tight and rolling like glass. They held irons well which was the perfect combo. Some small greens here at Sunset so your short game must be on. Rated 9.5/10 and highlight of the course.

Fairways were very lush, beautiful with a thicker kikuya base. Not much roll out but all the rains we had make this place look fabulous. Rated 9/10

Rough was thick kikuya in great shape. Tricky to chip out of but no unfair lies. Rated 9/10

Most black tees were level and lush and in good shape. Rated 8/10

Was in gresnside bunker on 11 which had a nice base to hit out of. Most green complexes here are surrounded with great bunkering.

Very tight smaller course that puts a premium on working the ball both ways through narrow treeline passages. Once in the fairway you have to have excellent distance control with short to mid irons.

If u have not had the opportunity to play here jump on it. Highly recommended.

Walked the blues Monday 9/22/25 just before 1pm joined by 2 nice singles. Weather was ideal with maybe a 7mph breeze and temps around 75 degrees with humidity clouds and sun mixed in. Our POP was 4 hrs 30 minutes. Great people working here with a great practice facility.

Wow this place "lushed" up even since my last round here.

The tees were very green, lush and level. Rated 8.5/10

The rough is incredible. Super green, lush and visually stunning. Saw some mowers cutting the 1st cut around some fairways. Rated 9/10

The fairways have really improved since the last time I played here. Perfect carpet lies ball sitting up. Still contained some roll out on drives. Rated 8.5/10

Was in one greenside bunker on 8 that had just perfect base. Rated 8.5/10

The greens will be punched in a couple weeks 10/6 and 10/7 according to GK. The greens on the back were healthier, slower and very soft and in good shape. Front left section on hole 9 needs some attention. Overall the greens are nice and playable. Rated 7/10.

Once the greens are punched and healed this place if kept the same as I saw it Monday will be close to PGA tour shape.

Highly recommended for layout, prices, conditioning, staff, weather. They got something great here.
