The course at the Sunbird Golf Resort is a desert-style course that offers three sets of tee boxes to accommodate most skill levels. This executive length golf course has a country club-type atmosphere and offers a good round of golf. The greens are medium sized with some that are multi-tiered and narrow fairways. Bunkers and trees are also present on the course, adding some challenge since they can greatly affect shots. Water hazards also come into play on a few holes. In addition to the executive course at Sunbird Golf Resort, the facility also offers a putting area and chipping green as well as a fully stocked pro shop.

Sunbird review

Overall the course is in decent shape. The pace of play was excellent. The greens are pretty slow but they put true and hold approach shots. I'll play here again for this price.

Good course for the money. Relatively short course without too many hazards besides houses that line most of the holes.

Great Course

Staff is always outstanding, just like a country club. Tee boxes and greens are great, fairways are transitioning to summer so some spotty areas, but still in good condition.

Great executive course

This is our “go to” executive course! The staff is awesome and we always have a great experience. Sometimes pace of play can be a little slow & they don’t have a liquor license but, it doesn’t deter us from returning. We LOVE this course!!

First Time Playing

Would play again

First time playing and would go back. Was looking for a 9 hole course that was affordable and this is it. Nestled in what seems like an older community, I read reviews first. I don’t know that I would suggest this course for brand new players to golf. I am still relatively new was concerned due to the number of houses lining many of the holes. The 9 hole course did have a mixed bag of Par 3s, 4s and even a couple of 5s. If you wanna practice your directional accuracy, this is the place to do it. There are a few bunkers (found a couple…) and some off to the side water hazards. Found one of those too, lol. Overall a good course, well taken care of greens that I’d happily go back to.
