About
Junior National Golf Club (formerly known as Tres Rios Golf Course at Estrella Mountain Park and Estrella Mountain Golf Course) is rich with dense forestry including eucalyptus, mesquite, and pine trees as well as cottonwoods. The course has a parkland-style layout with rolling fairways lined with trees and undulating greens that are medium-sized and fast. To add more challenge to the golf course, water hazards and bunkers come into play on several holes. The par-4 seventh hole is considered the most difficult driving hole on the course. There are stately trees off the tee and the second shot is to a narrow sloping green. Junior National Golf Club features multiple tee boxes for a variety of different golfing options.

Fun day.
Even though it was busy, the pace of play was good. It was a very good day for golf overall.
We will be playing the course again on Friday March 1st.
Hi, thank you for the five-star review! We are thrilled that you had an enjoyable round of golf with us the other day. We'll see you again soon! #tresriosgcaz
Not Worth It
Simply not worth it. It seems like a great price but you get what you pay for. Horrible customer service from Lori the GM, not promising if that's how the leadership talks to and treats customers. Horrible course management. Horrible course conditions from the tee box to the greens. I would think they have access to plenty of water with all the broken sprinklers flooding in several areas throughout the entire track but that's not the case. Don't bother making the trip. Go check out Falcon. They are the same price point, friendlier, better shape and more convenient.
Hi, we are so sorry that you felt this way. Here is an update from Lori: "The winter has been cold and rainy, but we wanted to take a moment and let you know all the good things going on at the course. Tres Rios is pleased to let you know that we hired a Superintendent and he has been doing a great job in his first few weeks. The course has taken a beating with all the rain and storms in October during the overseeding process. We are working diligently every day to make the course better. The areas we are improving on is the irrigation system, each day we fix more of the leaking sprinklers and old pipes. Many of you know that I have always loved being at Tres Rios! I promise that we will keep working hard for all of you ! We will be back in the best of conditions very soon! So, in the meantime, enjoy the Happy Hour half off range balls 11am-1pm, the great rates, the amazing sub sandwiches and my wonderful staff!" We hope this will provide some information regarding the conditions. We hope to see you again in the future.
Course with great potential
Wow good layout, no houses and middle of nowhere. Obviously not well managed and very poorly maintained. Nonetheless pretty busy with high handicap players. The greens were in very poor condition and it was like putting on a worn carpet. However, with long carry off the t and well designed fairways this place could be great.
Hi, we appreciate your feedback. We are making improvements to the course, so stay tuned! We want to return it to its optimal condition, but it will take some time. Your feedback is always very important to us. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Good value, great fairways and average greens.
Pace of play was very slow. Had to wait on nearly every shot, 5.5 hrs is a long round. But I was joined up with some friendly people and the laughs were frequent and fun. The greens needed some help but overall very playable. The fairways are in excellent condition as long as you stayed on the short grass.
Hi, thank you for the four stars! We are glad that you had an enjoyable round with your group! Your feedback is important to us, and we hope to see you again soon.

Hi, we are sorry to hear that you had a poor experience with us the other day. The winter has been cold and rainy and all these storms in October during the overseeding process gave our course a beating. We assure you that we are working hard to restore the course (improving the irrigation system, fixing leaking sprinklers and old pipes) to its optimal shape soon. Please be patient as our staff (including our new Superintendent) work towards making our course a more enjoyable experience. Your feedback does not go unnoticed.
tre rios
this course continues to erode . . Other than rain there dose not seem to have any water put on it. .There was not an overused put on it either. It is overpriced at best.
Hi, we are sorry that you had a poor experience with us the other day. The recent weather has not helped us one bit here, but we are working to improve the course. We hope to see you again soon.
Cheap, but ...
Tres Rios is generally a great local course with great pricing. Unfortunately, it's not even worth the great pricing any more. The fairways are dead AND painted green. The sand traps are mud traps and the greens are mostly seed.
I would rate the course a 3 out of 10 right now.
Hi, we are so sorry to hear that you didn't have a good time with us the other day. We are continuing to make improvements to the course and we hope that you will stop by soon.
Very Disappointing
Course looks horrible, greens are rock solid with sand bumping your ball around on putts. Fairways are patchy with dead spots all over. Sand traps are rock solid with weeds growing out of them. Trash on the course in the weeds. Very disappointed. Will not return, its ashame.

Hi, we are sorry to see that you didn't have a good time with us the other day. We hope that next time will be better.
Greens
This course is a good track but.......
Pace of play is slow. Also don't mind choppy fairways but, the greens and bunkers are horrible. The one thing I think should always be in at least good condition are the greens. My opinion
Hi, we are sorry to see that you didn't have a good time. We hope that next time will be a five-star experience!
Course is in terrible shape.
Leaking water mains all over the course; painted greens; no grass to speak of. Fairways are mostly deadpan; bunkers are like stone.
Hi, we are sorry about all of that. We are aware and are looking towards a solution. We appreciate your feedback.
Course is in terrible shape, grass is poor if you are off the fairway even 1 inch your in gavel and dirt. The greens are fair at best.
Hi Kevin, we are sorry to hear that your experience with us was subpar. We appreciate your feedback, and we hope that you will come back again soon.
Disappointing.
This course used to be in decent shape and fun to play. Not anymore. Tee boxes have little or no grass, sand traps have weeds growing in them, fairways are sparse and the greens have patches and have green dye on them.
Hi, we are sorry that your experience with us was poor. We are aware and are working towards improving the course. We appreciate your patience and we hope that you'll come back again soon.
Expect slow pace of play
Card says 4 hr pace of play. Our round took 5.5hrs, waiting on groups ahead of us at every tee. No field marshals, no effort made to keep pace of play to what the card states. Expect a slow really slow round of golf at this course.
Hi Phil, we are sorry to hear that your round of golf was hindered by the slow pace of play. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and we'll work to try and monitor it better. We'll see you again soon.
Hi, thank you for the three stars. We hope that you had a good time with us the other day. Thanks for stopping by, and we hope to see you again soon.
Great for the $23.00 hot deal.
In the last couple years this course has been poorly managed and maintained fairways are right off the roof is nothing but dead. The greens need some serious help also. But like I said great for $23 this time of year.
Hi, thank you for the three stars and the honest feedback. We are glad that you found our course good value for your money, and we look forward to seeing you again soon.
Hi Ted, we are sorry to see that you didn't have a good time the other day. We hope that you will give us another chance in the future.
Hi, thank you for the three stars. We hope that you had a good time. We'll see you again soon.
