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.

Nice course!

This course is worth a try! Staff are very friendly and the pace was good. There were Marshall’s out so that helped. No beverage cart though.

Holiday Golf with the Geese.

My son was off from college and I found the reservation over the weekend. I have golfed the course many times. They have made some real improvements. The greens weren't running too smooth. But it was a beautiful day.

Not much Fairway and a lot of desert.

I guess the course is a typical dessert course. It was a little short of fairway and a lot of desert. The greens were great but tough. The fairways are tight and we were almost hit by several errant balls from joining fairways.

Don’t play here!!

If this review changes one golfer’s mind about playing here, then this review did its job. I paid $80 for a Sunday round on a course that I wouldn’t play again for ten bucks. Greens are patchy, bumpy and horribly maintained. Fairways are ok but very narrow. And since this course is on such a small piece of land there are always errant golf balls whizzing on by, so your head needs to be on a swivel. I’ve used this app for years and have never felt compelled to leave a review until now. Save your money and time and go have some fun on another course!!

Expensive

The course has probably never been better but it's not worth that much money. Unfortunately this is Arizona in winter and frankly they can get whatever they ask. They DO have the most attractive beverage cart lady in the valley.

Garbage!

The only thing this course is missing is the livestock! Not worth $85 (after tax). Do yourself a favour and keep looking. If I hadn’t been with other people, I would have walked off after the first hole.

Greens need work, rough pitted surface on most holes. Layout is nice, fairways dry, hard and narrow. Layout is fairly flat in non residential area. Fair course but pricey for condition.

Keep your head up

The course is laid out such that on many holes there are multiple groups competing for the same real estate. My wife was hit by a golf ball while riding in her cart.

Course is tired and could use some major upkeep.

Investment away from being great

With some investment in greens upkeep, update clubhouse, and some additional scenic features (trees/shrubbery to block sore eye line spots (maintenance areas, roadside), signage on course.

Terrible Condition

The course was in bad shape and slow/overbooked; the kid/guy in the shop was clueless.

I heard this place got new ownership and they were going to "turn it around"; they didn't.
