Southgate Golf Club is a golf course with multiple personalities. Laid out as a great walking course, the front nine requires accuracy to successfully negotiate its waterways. Eight out of nine holes on the front nine feature either a lake or the Santa Clara River as scenic challenges to par. The back 9, slightly longer than the front nine, adds the element of risk/reward and allows the player to recover shots lost on the front nine. Southgate Golf Club is a par-70 layout which is enjoyable for all levels of ability."

Fairway Magazine talks about Southgate: Southgate Golf Club is one of the most player-friendly courses in the area. Southgate has undergone extensive redesign over the past 15 years. The front nine meanders along the beautiful Santa Clara River while the back nine traverses the foothills of Tonaquint Mountain providing stunning views of downtown St. George with its red rock backdrop. Southgate is a great golf course for those looking for an enjoyable round of golf as opposed to a brutal test of your skills. Southgate also features a game improvement center with award-winning PGA professionals and instruction programs.
