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.

Only Good for working on skills

Played this course before and it’s not impressive unfortunately. Most tee boxes okay, some sandy and hard. Fairways mostly spray painted green(way to conserve and not overseed) and hard pack. There are a lot of tee shots that have to go over dirt to get to the fairway. The greens were fairly decent but fast. The bunkers actually had great sand in them. Lots of golfers hitting into your fairway so you had to watch out and take time to find your ball(maybe use colored ones). Would like to see trash picked up when marshals are driving around. The staff was nice. Carts have ball/club washers but no coolers. Beverage cart came around a few times. Pace of play 4hrs. Paired with a couple of nice guys. Basically worked on golf skills on this course.

Beat the storm!

Its not in immaculate shape but your gane isn't either!

For $45 its well worth it. Lots of weekend warriors so keep your head on a swivel and aware of wild shots.

We finished in 3.5 hours just ahead of the wicked storm.

Always a fun track to play. One item of concern is the cup holes on the greens. No sharp edges made it almost impossible to “die in” putts. I must have lipped out half of the holes. Not sure they change hole positions.

Good Course And Good Value For The Money

Course has a few doglegs, and island green and well-maintained greens. Fairways were green as they should be and tee boxes were level. Few trees for shade and plenty of desert next to most holes. Good value at $30. Golf partner GPK liked the course.

Good Course That Has Never Disappointed

Took some out-of-town friends here to play on a real desert course and they loved it. Yes it is long and yes it does not have many shade trees but the course was in great shape and weather was not a factor. The island green is always a challenge as well as the 600-yd par 5. A few coyotes were out there this am and an eagle overhead which made for a fun experience for my eastern city-slicker friends. I have been playing Apache Creek for 30 years and it never disappoints. Food service has improved. Yep, I recommend this course

Better Than it Should Be

Played the morning of the 4th for $35. Yes, it’s summer and yes, it’s a drive, but that’s still an amazing value for what you get. Very solid course in way better shape than it should be.

Tee times too tight

Tee times onlly 7 minutes apart causes too many delays in the round. Dont know of any other course that has fewer than 8 minutes between tee times.

Staff in proshop was not friendly, which I have seen to be true from other experiences at course.
