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

Tee boxes were nearly impossible to put a tee in, the ground was so hard. Same issue with everything except the fairways. Its like hitting off rocks. Doubt I will return.

Drying out some

Seems like it could use more water, fairways are browning out, looks like they just painted the fairways. The pond around #6 has been drawn down significantly. Most of the greens were good, #13 was fuzzy and patchy. Good staff.

Practice Area better than course

When you view and use the practice area. Specifically the chipping area, putting greens and the sand area near the chipping area, you see a very well kept and inviting place to practice. The course, however, is not nearly as well kept.

Fairways in Good Condition

One of my favourite courses to play…. Good value for price…. Best to stay on fairways as the gravel is hard on the clubs and the rough is extremely fluffy & hard to make good contact with golf ball….

Very poor course, the greens were in poor condition. Could be a decent course if they spent a few million dollars.

First Time Playing

Just ok

The course is just ok in my opinion. The conditions aren’t great. I was expecting better for this time of year. The marshall is a grumpy old man that yells at people for not following the 90° rule perfectly. News flash- your course doesn’t need the 90° rule so give it a rest. Pace of play was slow… which was probably made worse by the aforementioned ridiculous 90° rule.

Won’t go out of my way to play here again.

The fairways were dry and brown with no evidence of rye grass overseeding for this season. Green fees were too high for the course conditions.

First time this fall

Cheapest price. Easy to find. Parking good can’t bring carts to car. Carts clean and function. Ball washer on cart. Buckets for our towels. Free water at start. On time. Said tee boxes leveled but I beg to differ. Fairways dry. Roughs are rough. Bunkers are good. Greens are spotty and rather long yet. Sometimes hard to get out of lot late in the day. Ok lay out
