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.

Apache Creek Mothers Day

This was a good day and time to play. We played as a two-some at 830am. There was no one behind us for at least 4 holes. Greens were in very good shape for this time of year (rolled about a 10) . Tee boxes need work (not very level). I've played here for years and this was probably the best shape its been in.

Great layout

This course has always had extremely slow play. Don’t know if it’s overbooking. But you cannot get into a rhythm to play this course, thus the two year duration of my play there. You really should try and fix the problem.

Time to play here again

First time back after many disappointing rounds. Course was in amazing shape. Fairways were green and had grass, this was not the case in the past. Greens were receptive and rolling true, again not the normal in the past few rounds. Pace of play was constant, not rushed but moving at a nice pace. The starter set the pace and took control, not squeezing in “members and friends” and packing the course. Actually ready to play here again

Ehhh…

5 hour round - no Marshall to monitor pace of play - greens pretty hard so they didn’t hold descent approaches - lots of dirt/dust - practice areas are good

Nice track

Fairways and 1st cut were very hard. Fairways were generally good with few bare spots. Greens were also generally good and true. Seems like course just needs water

Rate issue

I was charged $6 on my Credit card and then $120 when I got to the course. The balance per GolfNow showed $109. I questioned it with the clerk, he said it was taxes. Seems it would be cheaper and less confusing if I book directly with the course going forward.

Open fun course!

Apache Creek has a forgiving and open layout. The course has some longer holes, but forgives the errant shot. There are some strategy holes carrying over desert to reach a closer fairway approach. Staff are great and most people play at a fast speed. Great Price!

Ok to play with pricesdown

Easy to find, easy check in, can’t take carts to car, sand bottles on cart, water from starter and on course, water buckets for towels, carts good yet, tees good, fairways good, roughs dry and lots of desert, bunkers in need of much assistance, greens generally good and medium speed, cart paths in need of work, could use a major fixing, nice views of Superstition if interested,, played in slightly under 4, sometimes hard to get to fairways, would be nice to have tees between whites and fronts with better designation,much nicer with prices down

Very friendly staff

Greens & fairways are good, but cart paths & roughs could be worked on.

Only reason I wouldn’t recommend this course is because there are so many other beautiful courses in the area with less desert & better maintained roughs.

First Time Playing

Appache Creek Golf

The fairways were in good enough shape, but the Roughs were gravel and sand( not uncommon for AZ).

If i stayed in fairway would be fine. Staff were very friendly. Greens were in good shape. Loved the speed of play.
