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.

San Marcos still in great shape with great value and friendly staff

Had another great round with my Dad and my son. Fairways and greens in good shape despite the recent monsoon storms. A few wet bunkers, but could be worse. Saw the drink cart 3-4 times, excellent on a hot day, and Kelly took great care of us in the bar. Challenging pins, especially back placements, but it felt even more rewarding when I birdied 17 and 18 to end the round. Another terrific day at San Marcos!
