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.

Wide open

Good course. Wide open fairways but stay off the desert landscape if you love your irons as much as I do.

Pleasantly surprised

We were paired with another couple for the front nine and the group in front of us was very slow. The Marshall spoke with them and came to let us know that he had done so. Then he followed up again to reassure us that they were going to pick up their pace. it was great to have the Marshall do such an excellent job. We were just a twosome on the back nine and it was as if we had our own private golf course. We motored through the back nine and completed the round in under four hours.

The greens and surrounding aprons were in excellent shape. Greens were quite tricky, and we both had trouble reading our putts. It was a little difficult to figure out where the next hole was on several occasions.

Good Value

We played under a twilight rate which was good as well as the pace of play. Tee off at 2:10 and completed the round before 6:39pm.

I was dissappointed in the fairways We had to play the 90 degree rule, but I don't know why since they were in rough shape anyway.

Greens rolled very well and sand traps were good. All in all, a good day!

Desert golf

Desert course with virtually no rough. Somewhat difficult to know where to hit your drive on some holes. Greens in good shape. Fairways sketchy.

Least expensive course around

Easy to find. Easy check in. Carts can’t go to car. Clean carts with sand bottles and ball and club washers. Water at start. Water buckets for towels some tees getting beat and a number that are quite not level in spots. Fairways pretty good roughs with some grass but spotty. Bunkers actually have a little sand. Greens remain pretty good. Played in just under 4 sometimes difficult going left as you leave late in the day

Apache Creek is a great mix of green and desert

I was challenged with the desert landscape, but really enjoyed the course. Don't take the greens for granted either as none of them are easy. Pace of play was great.

Scenic course

This course offers some of the most beautiful sunsets with superstition mountain background. We didn’t tee off until 3pm with slow

Pace of play we only got to hole 14 before sunset. It was a fun course.

Unexpected Surprise

The conditions of the tees, fairways, and greens was unexpectedly good. Off the fairway you will be on desert, rocks, etc. The course is just flat, back-and-forth golf. The starter was friendly, and water was provided to take out on the course. I booked a Hot Deal and managed to get it at $70. I don't think I would pay much more than that for this course.

Cloudy day

Course in decent condition, pace a bit slow on most holes. We were the first group out behind the Men's league. They were quite slow on the greens putting out at times. Maybe they don't play ready golf.

The weather was a bit cool at times as sky was overcast but rain stayed away. A good day was had by all.

Course was in poor shape at best. Didn't mind 10 minute wait at t-off. 3 some in front of us held up play. Ranger talked to them but it did no good. people behind us kept hitting into us. just not a good overall experience. Will not play this course again.
