Ironwood Golf Course is an 18-hole course with many challenging elements. There are water hazards that come into play on five holes and the holes that don't have water have strategically placed sand bunkers coming in to play. All of the greens are sloped and some are undulating as well. One interesting asset of the course is the extensive mounding; the unique and interesting placement can cause uneven lies. The course is tricky but there are three sets of tee boxes to adapt to a variety of abilities and handicaps. The Ironwood Golf Course facility also features practice facilities including a putting green and chipping area.

Short but sweet

A great course to break 90 unfortunately we were not told or saw an advertisement that it was a shotgun start.

Greatly maintained course with fast pace

The course was beautifully maintained, greens, fairways, fringe and even rough were pristine. The pace of play was impresive, it was a shotgun with a few A and B foyrsomes and we finished in 3 hours and 25 minutes.

Nice little course

Course was well kept and felt like a good value for the price! It is a little tucked away in an older community but good pace of play and had a fun time. No driving range so keep that in mind but would definitely play again!

Gem in the desert

Play here if: You want a low-stress, "executive-style" feel that still challenges your iron play and putting. It’s perfect for a morning round before the Arizona heat peaks.

A Gem

They had yellow fairways!!!

So cool. I actually got paired up with an old student of mine, not planned. Played the blue tees, it’s challenging for a hacker like me. Greens were smooth. Sand traps were not soft, actually harder than I would imagine they would be during a normal condition. Enjoyed this course very much.

Definitely not an executive course

I was suprised by the difficulty, variety of holes and overall quality of this course. I had an executive (per 3) course in my mind. This course is par 67, with several par 4s and 2 par 5s. A few of the par 4s are quite long and several of the par 3s are over 160 yards.

The members i played with were very accommodating and knowledgeable. I really enjoyed myself and their complany.

Course was PURE

Most well maintained course Ive played at in a while, fun course layout and great pace. Only 'weird' thing I will mention is they required me to share a golf cart with a guy who brought his own cart.
