Cowan Creek Golf Course is the newest of three courses that are part of Del Webb's Sun City retirement community. Cowan Creek has a resort-style layout with a front nine that plays through the community, with the homes set well back from the fairways, and a back nine that stretches across the scenic Hill Country landscape. The back nine is slightly tougher than the front. Although the golf course is wide-open there are some mesquite trees and cacti that add some scenery throughout. The layout features large landing areas, forgiving fairways, and there are few tricks and hazards, all of which make it an approachable course for beginners. There are some challenges though that will appeal to more experienced players including a few blind shots, elevated greens and tees, and some forced carries. Throughout Cowan Creek Golf Course, golfers will find some interesting risk-reward opportunities.

Tee times are highly recommended due to the inherent demand from Sun City residents. This course is shorter and easier than its older two siblings. But do not let that fool you as this course can be nasty if you are having control issues. Several holes offer great rewards for well placed shots and three holes offer hidden tee shots. Holoe 13 offers a great rick/reward opportunity as it is drivable over a lake. The more conservative play is to drive the ball into the fairway and then cross the lake at a more reasonable distance.
Staff is great and the greens crew have found their game.
