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.

Desert Course

As advertised, pretty much a target based driver course but plenty of room. Greens are primarily raised so easy to roll off.

The staff was not overly friendly.

Pace of play

The course over all was in decent shape. Greens held nicely and rolled good. Pace of play was sad!! 5 hours to play is unacceptable. I understand wanting to have fun and stuff but slower players should let others play through. Rangers didn’t make an effort to even speed things up. I do recommend this course it was fun and other than slow play we all enjoyed ourselves.

Not good

The course needs a TON of work. Cart paths aren’t paved. Very few signs to show where the next tee box is located. Club house staff and starter unwelcoming. One positive was pace, but I would never consider coming back to this course if I’m paying more than $10.

Horrible staff

This is the tackiest course in the valley. The staff is wildly rude, especially James. The guy literally told me don't come back after I mentioned a lot of people don't like matts. That's literally all I said and he got so offended and said to find another course next time. Oh James, I most certainly will. This goat track was never worth the money

Improved from 6-8 weeks ago

Easy to find. Easy check in can’t take carts to car. Clean carts with sand bottles and ball washer. Water for us at start tees pretty good some need leveling. Fairways good roughs ok. Bunkers with some sand. Greens pretty fast and almost all are good again. Waited on every hole but still done in 3:50. Sometimes tough to get out of driveway south. Price better

Much improved

Easy to find. Easy check in they know me somehow. Can’t take carts to car. Cleaned carts with sand bottles and ball washer. Water for us at start. Tees pretty good some could be a fair bit flatter. Fairways good roughs are ok. Bunkers with only thin layer of sand. Greens pretty nice compared to a few weeks ago. Played in 3:40 and waited on almost every hole. Sometimes can be difficult to exit parking lot due to traffic. Price getting better

Still busy season, course looked good.

Staff was great, the course looked good but the heat is starting to dry out the course already. It would be nice to have water back in the hazard on hole one and the island green. We weren't held up but we had league groups behind us who were right on us the whole time and we played in 4 hours exactly with a foursome.

First but not the last time playing Apache Creek

The greens were very consistent & fast. Hitting the fairways is a premium as playing from the hard packed dirt is "interesting " We'll be back!

Simple, yet fun!

For my first time playing at Apache Creek, it was a blast! I went in as a solo. The course was well taken care of and the greens rolled really well. The staff and management were friendly. The only slight downside to this course is the back 9 layout. There were times where finding the next tee box was a little challenging. I believe this is due to the lack of cart path on the majority of the course. Overall, a great, fun course and would recommend!

Apache Creek golf

I haven’t played this course in almost ten years. I played with my two sons yesterday and we had a great time. Greens were in great shape. The fairways were a little hard, making it hard to get under the ball. All in all it was in good shape and a fun course to play.
