Don't Waste Your Money

If you like paying overpriced fees for views of vast dirt wasteland, coupled with the stench from the nearby waste treatment plant...

Silverbell is for you. I don't understand how Silverbell and other city courses can charge such high green fees and barely maintain their courses. Where is that money going? Go play Arizona National, El Conquistador, Del Lago or San Ignacio for well maintained, quality golf layouts for the same price.

I will not be back!

Improving conditions

In the two weeks since I played the course it looks like they are working hard to improve conditions. The fairways were very nice—enough grass for the mower to cut! Front nine roughs looked to be greening up. Most green were nice. I’ve always liked the layout, especially the back nine. Staff is always friendly. I played early so pace of play wasn’t a problem.

Course not well marked.

The course was not well marked. I got lost a couple of times trying to find the next hole. There were very few distance markers on the course.

I arrived and checked in for my tee time 20 minutes before but the starter scolded me and acted like I was 10 minutes late. On the 9th hole, the ranger tried to tell my my pace of play was too slow as I had not joined the 3some in front of me. I explained the groups behind me were at least 2 holes behind & the 3some in front of me was setting a good pace, so I was able to keep moving.

I expressed my concerns to the starter at the end of my round. He apologized for his harshness and tried to explain how he had gained 10 minutes and the group in front of me arrived early, so he was trying to keep everything moving.

Nice Golf Course

Good course, good layout, nice to have a lower greens fee for residents. Very windy day, would like to play the course when wind isn't whipping the ball around. Pace of play was great.

Needs a marshall

The pace of play was irritating. We teed off at 1:45 pm and did not finish the round despite sunset at 6:20 pm.

The only time I notice a marshall on this course is when they have been summoned by an overly-entitled golfer on the course.

There is nothing at this course that indicates pace of play is a consideration at all.

Such a disappointment

Way over priced for such a horrible course. Fairways were cut so short it was like hitting off dirt which is what the rough was... dirt. Bathroom ere dirty and there was some type of water treatment plant plat that smelled so disgusting. No carts available for our afternoon tee time. Started said they were in time but we teed off 30 min late. Domestic beers were $5. Greens didn’t hold but did roll good. Easy course to walk.
