About
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.

A desert course
Easy to find. Easy check in. Getting costly. Clean carts with sand bottles and ball/ club washer. Water at the start. Water buckets for towels. Tees beat up some and often uneven. Fairways pretty good Roughs with minimal grass or desert. Bunkers seem playable to me. Greens good shape and not flat. Played in 4 hrs. Can’t take carts to car. Hard to turn left out if parking lot neat 5 pm
Always Fair
AC is always fair—hit a bad shot, pay the price. Hit a good one, no penalty. The course layout is clean, clear, lots of space, mostly flat but fairways are clearly delineated and challenge you to make good decisions.
Staff is cool too—patient, kind, fellow golfers who are not snobs but just want you to have a good time.

Nice, soft greens, lot of waste area, fairways were good.
We were very disappointed with the condition of the fairways. The green’s were in nice condition smooth.. Pace of play was very good and the course marshal was informative and courteous.
Desert course
Easy to find. Easy check in. The cashier seems to recognize me. Getting more spendy. Clean older carts with ball/club washer and sand bottles. Water at starter. Tees getting a little beat and often not too level. Fairways pretty good Roughs pretty sparse grass. Lots of desert. Bunkers have at least some sand though some pretty wet. Greens good this year. Medium speed and often not flat. No drinking water on course. Some toilets. Water bucket for towels at start and 10th. Played in 4:15. Can’t take carts to car. Hard to turn left exiting at end of day
Quick but fun round
Had the third tee time of the day and flew through the course. The greens were in great shape.
The restaurant was terrific! Love the breakfast sandwich and they were so friendly.
In general, you have to be consistent and straight, or you will play from the desert, which I did more than I planned. But even then, I still had a shot.
AC Dec 2023
Course was playable even with fairways that were not overseeded. Greens were a little hard and fast.
Most Improved Golf Course
Been playing here occasionally for about 10 years and I'm impressed with the changes. Thank you.
Desert course
Easy to find. Easy check in. Carts clean and have ball and club cleaner. Water from starter. Tees could use some leveling. Fairways mostly pretty good Roughs with sparse grass. Lots of desert. Greens pretty good shape and moderately fast. Bunkers mostly in fair shape and can get out. Some pretty wet. Played in 4 hrs hard to exit left at end of day
Desert course
Easy to find. Easy check in. Carts cleaned and ball and club cleaners on carts. Water bottles at start. Tees not too beat up yet. Fairways cut pretty nice and in pretty fair shape. Lots of desert areas. Roughs pretty thin. Greens all nicely cut and fairly fast. Bunkers at least have some sand but some fairly wet. No drinking water on course. Chipping to green good cuz grass mowed around greens. Played in just over 3 hrs. Can’t take carts to car. Not easy to leave and turn left late in day. Better than last year.
