Course Highlights
Sunbird's well-maintained fairways, forgiving roughs, and a winding layout through homes give golfers an enjoyable short-game challenge. Exceptionally friendly staff and outstanding value consistently draw players back for more rounds.

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.

Great course , friendly people & an amazing price

This course is really fun to play but still challenges you in many ways. A tough par 5 with water on the front 9 & the 18th hole par 4 covered in bunkers will test your game nicely !

Nice Course, great staff!

Course is in transition so fairways and tee boxes will improve as time goes by. Greens, however, are very good. Christiana in the Pro Shop is great, very friendly, efficient, and helpful. Always enjoy playing Sun Bird.

Nice Course

I can't say enough about Laurie and her staff. Friendly, professional and courteous. Even the landscapers stop working when you are near them. That's usually reserved for high end coutses. and certainly not seen at any other courses in the East Valley. Course is in transition now but still very playable

Great job Sunbird !!
