About
Desert Mirage Golf Course offers a public, nine-hole course and a fully stocked pro shop. The course has a traditional design but that does not mean it is boring. It is perfect for squeezing in a quick game or for beginners and kids. The course is relatively flat, but there are some hills on the course that can affect shots. The greens are medium sized with some slight undulation and the generous fairways are wide open. There are also water hazards and bunkers that come into play on a few of the holes. Desert Mirage Golf Course's signature hole is the par-4 ninth. It requires a tee shot over a lake to an island green.

Course a little dry .. but hey .. temperatures jumped from 70’s to mid 90’s in three days
Fun post play grilled hamburgers and hotdogs.

this course was in good condition
I like playing there from the blues. Gives it more of a challange I also play on the ladies league on Wed. Great bunch of gals. EVERYONE at the course is very friendly, helpful and nice to talk to. Fred as manager does a fantastic job. And Tonya always has a friendly greeting to all.
Your feedback is important to us. Thank you for sharing your 5-star experience. We look forward to seeing you again at the course soon! Thanks for choosing Desert Mirage Golf Course.
Slow play
The course was in ok shape, play was horribly slow. Too many people let out on the course. No one to move them along. Won’t play again.
We apologize for the pace of play issue you experienced. We always try to keep a great pace when having our golfers on the course. Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback as we will use your review to better the experience going forward. We hope you give us another try in the near future!
Friendly golfers and staff, basic easy course.
Simple basic course. Wide fairways, 1 hole with water hazard, very little sand. Friendly people, decent driving range and practice green. Great for golfers like me, just getting back into golf.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Thank you for the 4 stars! We aim for a 5-star experience, so we always welcome feedback for improvement. Thank you for playing Desert Mirage Golf Course.
6-somes welcomed here apparently
Tee time - 2:06pm
Tee’d off - 2:30pm
Only played 4 holes and left because there was a 6-some 3 groupings in front of us holding our group and the 3 in front of us up.
When I brought it up to the course employee working the front desk, they said “only 5 are supposed to be playing.” Not the response I was expecting.
Figure it out, please.
Thank you for taking the time to review the course. We take single star feedback very seriously at our course. You are welcome to comment further or reach out to our team in the golf shop. We always appreciate the feedback. Thank you for playing Desert Mirage Golf Course.
Worth $10-$12/rd
Whatever your tee time is, plan on teeing off about 30-45 minutes after your reserved tee time. Along with that comes waiting on every tee box for 1 or 2 groups to finish before you can step on the tee box.
I understand the target market for this course, but take care of the real estate you have. It could be a great little course if the greens and fairways weren’t as hard as a concrete slab.

Nice place to practice
I enjoyed playing this course. The pace of play is very slow with a lot of beginner golfers but that is to be expected at a course like this. Overall conditions were good and the course threw in a few spots to practice shaping the ball and hitting a variety of shots. Easy course overall. Will play here again!

Muddy.
Muddy in several areas. Holes are very close to each other. Pretty small course. Greens are in ok-ish shape. Not happy about extra 10$ for my girl riding with me.

Stupid design
Very dumb design. 9 hole golf course designed for carts. Doesn’t make any sense. Tried to walk this course and almost missed hole number two because of the poor design
Cart paths were in horrific condition and greens and fairways were okay. Don’t recommend this course but solid for just 20$.

Congested & Lethargic
Slow...slower...slowest round ever played in the phoenix area. Traffic signals should be installed to manage motorized carts at the tee boxes.
Trench foot : the 'canal' runs through most of the course and bisects fairways. The 9th hole is basically a 200 yard lake.
Poorly maintained with few amenities available. Greens fees are reasonable. Ample parking. Driving range is best feature overall
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve, and we are working towards getting things up to par.

Easy municipal
Short, easy executive 9 hole. Easy to get on, pace was comfortable, no real penalty for missed shots. Good for practice. Had driving range and practice green as well as practice hole.
