Although there are many other desert golf courses in the Phoenix area, Apache Creek Golf Club offers one challenging championship course that requires the use of every club. The golf course features wide open fairways and undulating greens that are sloped back to front, some are also double-tiered. There are also numerous sand and grass bunkers protecting the fairways and greens. Extensive mounding on the course cause uneven lies and water hazards come into play on a few holes. The most difficult of the several demanding holes on this golf course, is the lengthy par-5, 10th hole. Apache Creek Golf Club also boasts two practice greens, a pitching and chipping green with a sand trap, and a large driving range with various targets.

Yuck!

We had low expectations to begin with. A links desert layout. Ponds are pretty much empty. Greens were in TERRIBLE shape. Any grass rough was brown or dead or dormant. Most "rough" is desert. They're trying I suppose, but fix the greens! I wouldn't pay rack rate to play there. The Hot Deal made it palatable.

First Time Playing

Very nice track

Very cordial greeting in pro shop. Clear instructions about course rules. The starter (Pat) was helpful and very pleasant.

Course had very good fairways. The greens were excellent with a couple having some grass problems, but not horrible. Would definitely play there again.

Greens

So coming out of overseeding you would think the greens would be a little more plush but they had some brown spots and where the grass didn't grow. But probably every course in town has a little bit of something going on. Our cart got hit by a couple balls and no one says four out there. They just let her rip let the courses overall really nice course. I enjoy it. I'm just excited about seeing the greens when they're back to normal

Getting dry

Easy to find. Getting spendy. Can’t take carts to car. Had fire in pro shop. Carts ok. Water for towels. Water for us at start. Somewhat slower today played in 4:10. Tees still not very level. Fairways dry and painted. Bunkers playable greens mostly pretty good and putt well. But some with lots of spots. Not always easy to go left out if lot. Chipping fairly good for pitch and run

Pretty dry

Easy to find price tolerable yet. Parking good can’t take carts to car. Water for towels. Water at start carts ok. Sand bottles on carts. No water or bathrooms on course. Tees still need leveling. Fairways quite dry and painted. Roughs are roughs. Most greens putt pretty well are dry but a few are patchy and bumpy. Water ponds way down in water. Played in 3:45 and waited a fair bit even so. True desert course close to home.

Slow play!!!

Golfed there twice in two weeks and the pace of play was extremely slow… waited a long time on every hole. Saw a marshall a couple times but they didn’t do anything. Slow play ruins the experience. Either space groups apart more, have Marshall push them faster… like the course but can’t stand to wait like that. It ruins the game.

Price for painted fairways

I have played your course many times. I will say this was the 1st time l was disappointed. The started was alittle rude , the fairways were painted not overseeded and the tee boxes were so hard you couldn't even push a tee into the ground.

I don't feel a course should charge what you charged to play if you didn't even seed the fairways or even water the tee boxes.

My foursome won't be back to play for awhile.

We will wait to see how others rate your course abd hope to see some positive quotes before playing your course again.
