Arizona national

One of the tougher courses I’ve played in a while. Greens were very fast. Front 9 was narrow with little room for error. Rental clubs were a mixed set so bring your own. Range balls were cash or tokens. Good overall value.

Excellent golf experience

Great desert course up and through the foothills. Lots of elevation changes that make it challenging. Amazing views of the valley.

Bunkers - Unacceptable

Arizona National is a beautifully laid out course. Fairways and greens

are in very good condition. However, the conditions of the bunkers are an absolute embarrassment for a course that charges this much. To call them sand traps is an insult to almost any other course in the area. I realize that it is costly to improve them, but I will never again play this course as long as they ignore their bunkers.

Awesome course and condition, amenities weak

Awesome layout and excellent shape.

Challenging desert golf; watch out for the cactus!

Amenities very weak. Pro shop and restaurant very worn and dated. Driving range and putting green very beat up.

Overlook the clubhouse and range, enjoy an excellent course. I guess that's what really counts. Starr Pass was excellent in all phases, but was $150 vs $90. A little effort on updating would make this an awesome place.

Slow Slow Slow

Did I say slow? Worst part about it is they do absolutely nothing about it. It was a 5 hr round. We were waiting on every tee, approach. People in front of us were waiting

Get a Marshall and do something about it

Almost perfect

The ONLY strike this course has against it are the bunkers, sooooo many rocks. This is a great place to play and if you get a little liberal with relief in the bunkers, you won’t find many much better.
