Rating 71.0

The golf course at the San Marcos Golf Resort boasts an impressive list of past players that includes presidents and celebrities. The golf course is nestled on a property in downtown Chandler that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Although it has a desert landscape, the course is still lush with a canal that runs through it, a lake, and plush Bermuda grass greens, the former two creating water hazards that come into play on several holes. The San Marcos Golf Resort course is challenging with each hole having at least three bunkers. The two most difficult holes on the golf course are two lengthy par 4s, the fourth and the 10th.

Fun course. Nice greens

Very flat, wide fairways, well maintained. Bunkers had decent sand. Greens rolled nicely. I enjoyed the round.

Course is just good right now

Played on 12/19, just two of us. Course seemed a little dried out considering the canals are full. Lots of divots in the fairways, golfers need to fill them when waiting on the people ahead and also need to rake in the bunkers after using them. Pace of play seemed slow but we were done in 4hrs. Marshal was around a couple of times and very polite-would like to see them also pick up garbage that lies around considering the multi million dollar homes around the course. There was a beverage cart. The staff is great! Recommend playing as it’s enough of a challenge even being mostly flat.

Nice place to play

All staff members were very friendly and helpful.

Greens: very consistent and in good shape. People need to repair their own ball marks.

Fairways: grass was a little thin. Too much water in some areas.

Bunkers: sand was not deep but they were consistent. Well raked out by other golfers.

Tee boxes: were level but worn.

I would recommend this course.

Booked round without knowledge of a tournament

I booked a round and wasn’t aware there was a tournament. They tourney was running behind schedule which out my tee time behind. The pace was stupid slkw. Took nearly three hours to finish 9 holes. I planed my day around a 3.5-4 round and had to leave at the turn to make my other plans. Asked about rain checking the remaining 9. I live in Tucson so it’s now like I could just finish out the round and still make my plans..but the guy in the shop

Was rude and pretty much just threw a card at me and said call this number.

Don’t know if I’m coming back to this course..

An offer I couldn't Refuse

Can't lose a ball inbounds unless you roll into one of the many aqueducts cutting across the fairways.

Nice traditional course

Played 12/5, able to use cart on course now. Paired with father and son, delightful people. Recently mowed so lots of clumping. Disappointed to see a lot of the fairways drying out with dead grass. Could use watering. Bunkers need sand. Staff is excellent! Pace of play slightly slow but picked up back nine. Beverage cart was frequent. We like this course as it’s traditional and just enough challenge. Would like to see marshals picking up trash on their way through.

A Desert Course with a Traditional feel

An old traditional style golf course that is fairly flat in its layout. Huge Pine Trees line the fairways.If not for the desert heat you would think that the course you're playing was somewhere in the Midwest. I would definitely recommend this course.
