About
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.

Morning view down the Par-5 5th fairway. A strong drive, especially to the center-right fairway, sets you up to go for the green in two! Photo submitted by vmustang on 04/25/2021

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.
Pleasant Surprise
We were very pleased with all aspects of the course.. Fairways and greens were in good shape. Will definitely be back. Good value for the money.
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
Nice course
Course in great shape, All the staff 5 stars..I was a single and followed foursomes all day but still play 18 holes in 3 :45 minutes.
Great staff
Weather went from Marginal to Ice Station Zebra on the front. Rain and wind found us all thawing out in their bar area. Great service and rain checks for the back nine.
Slow play
My only complaint is that having to wait for the group in front of us before each shot. Course was in good shape and fun to play but there were too many people.
Affordable before taken off Hot deals!
San Marcos no longer offers Golf Pass Hot Deals!!!! It was affordable and use to be good value for this course But not anymore!!
Nipplie Cold
Tee Time was great (0816am), price was $60.00 per player, total staff was very professional. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
By the way; Happy Birthday San Marcos!
Fairways need more and thicker turf
Ever try hitting a golf ball off the kitchen floor? That is about what you will encounter at San Marcos. Grass is so short in the fairways!
