Apache Creek Golf Club
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.

Fun layout Good greens
New owners, looks like they are watering more. With improvements it can be a good course because I like the layout and the greens are good.
Pretty dry
Easy to find price tolerable yet. Parking good can’t take carts to car. Water for towels. Water at start carts ok. Sand bottles on carts. No water or bathrooms on course. Tees still need leveling. Fairways quite dry and painted. Roughs are roughs. Most greens putt pretty well are dry but a few are patchy and bumpy. Water ponds way down in water. Played in 3:45 and waited a fair bit even so. True desert course close to home.
Slow play!!!
Golfed there twice in two weeks and the pace of play was extremely slow… waited a long time on every hole. Saw a marshall a couple times but they didn’t do anything. Slow play ruins the experience. Either space groups apart more, have Marshall push them faster… like the course but can’t stand to wait like that. It ruins the game.
Price for painted fairways
I have played your course many times. I will say this was the 1st time l was disappointed. The started was alittle rude , the fairways were painted not overseeded and the tee boxes were so hard you couldn't even push a tee into the ground.
I don't feel a course should charge what you charged to play if you didn't even seed the fairways or even water the tee boxes.
My foursome won't be back to play for awhile.
We will wait to see how others rate your course abd hope to see some positive quotes before playing your course again.
Not Worth the Money
Fairways 6/10
Greens 4/10
If you don’t find fairway on every shot, you are hitting out of hard dirt that is full of rocks and unplayable.
Terrible Customer Service
Played this course many times. Playing at a 4 hour pace got asked to skip a hole to keep up with the pace of the threesome playing behind our foursome. Have always loved this course but it's insane to be asked to skip a hole while you are playing a reasonable pace. Service mentioned they don't need to do anything especially after using a golf now hot deal because they don't make any money on your round. Definitely not coming back after this terrible customer service. Players actually caring about there round, abiding by the 90 degree rule should not be penatalized for other smaller groups speed golfing and driving all over the course to get to there ball.

What's Happened?
This is the worst shape I have ever seen this course, especially at this time of year.
Many of the fairways were spotted and had many dead areas. Some fairways were actually painted green. More importantly, the greens were in terrible shape and definitely needed a haircut. Needed a three wood to putt through them. Very furry.
If you are going to charge these rates, at the very least have the greens in good condition.
Not a good value for the money.
superintendent
pretty dry the fairways were painted green not watered island hole surrounded by mud .
Last time for me.
Rock hard fairways and greens and little to no rough. Bring a rock club as there is more dirt than grass here. Ranger was terrible, telling us we are a 1/2 hole behind while we were literally waiting on the tee for a group to clear the green on a par 3.
Desert dust
Lots of desert. Fairways in good condition, greens not so much. Too much dust. Need to blow then wash my bag after round. Too many fly balls from other fairways. Will not play here again.
