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.

Rating 64.7

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 As Usual

I play this course about once a week I enjoy it so much. Very busy however staff has added a starter who knows what he's doing. They are not letting anyone tee off until the previous group is on or leaving the green. This has made a huge difference in removing the back up that inevitably happened when people teed off on their own. It must be tough convincing folks to be patient but it's the right thing to do. The ladies running this course are doing an outstanding job! Thanks from a frequent visitor.

Close clubhouse

On a 98 degree day, we got to turn and was told we could not take drinks to go. We continued on, we ended at 4 pm and the clubhouse was closed.

There was no beverage cart on the course. Nor could you get anything with ice in it unless you went up to the restaurant .

Great course for the price

This is the perfect time of year to play golf in the area, and this course was in very good condition. The staff was friendly, and even got us out a little early, allowing us to play as a twosome. Despite being a twosome, the pace of play was quite good, finishing in less than 3 hours.
