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.

San Marcos, a Gem in the Heart of Chandler

My group and I have played this course 3 times, so far, in 2024. The fairways and greens are in really good conditions.

The sand traps, all 3 protecting every green, could use some sand as they are a little shallow. But hey, who wants to play from the sand anyway?

On my first trip here staff warned me to stay out of the sand traps. They were spot on.

San Marcos is a nice, clean course. Not too much trouble and is fun to play as an average golfer.

Great traditional course!

Have played this course a few times now and we really enjoy it! It’s in pretty good shape! It had rained the day before so the bunkers had water and there was scattered standing water in the rough and fairways, no big deal. The staff is always pleasant and pace of play was great.

Original course round

Didn't realize we had booked right behind a tournament, thus a bit slow for my liking. However we did manage to finish. Greens were great, fairways good. Any staff we interacted with were awesome. Some sandtraps could use some sand.

Overall a lovely day.

water and sand needed

Course is dry and hard - needs plenty of water to make the grass grow. Greens hard as bricks requiring you to roll ball on green. Sand traps need sand - almost impossible to hit out of sand. Even though the course was in OK shape, round was fun because of two playing oartners
