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.

Horrible

Prepare to loose your ball on the ruff. The ruff is 6in tall. Manager came up to us and said we need to hurry when each group was right behind each other. We were behind a 5 person group. The manager is an a hole. Each group had 3 minutes to play. Even when they reopen We will never return to this course they should stay closed.

This course is terrible.

Do not book. You will lose your ball anywhere in the rough. They need to mow the grass. Terrible course conditions. I will never play here again.

Still in Good Shape

Watering the course. The type of grass they have in the ruff makes it very difficult to find your ball. I last 3 and found 9. The greens have been aerated and are filling in. Makes putting a little more challenging. They were out mowing today which was nice. Note course is closing at 1PM, So you need to be in by then.

No safe during pandemic

In the current pandemic situation, Tres Rio has decided to charge an extra $5 per person to have their own cart. Every other course in the area promotes players to not share carts to keep everyone safe, yet Tres Rios is all in it for the money. VERY disappointed in this decision. I will go to Wigwam, El Mirage, Sundance or Coldwater to golf safely and pay less at a much better course.

The course was not in great shape

There were quite a few rough/dry patches on almost every fairway. Very hard hit with little grass underneath your ball.. No sand in any of the bunkers. The greens were very slow and bumpy. I was very disappointed in the shape of this course.

Tres Rios play

Tres Rios is a very fun course to play, it has everything you want as a goler. If you hit the ball long it plays great, has really good par 3's. You can't beat the affordability of this course.

The greens are better than most expensive courses

Good for the price and would go back

Sometimes hard to tell where the next tee box was. Most greens really thick grass some were a little worn down. Good value for the price and would play here again.

Tres Rios

The course is in fabulous condition, fairways are green, geeens are in really good condition. If you like playing the long ball there's plenty of holes and if you like shorter holes you get them also.

Course Sucks

This course needs some serious work. Greens were thick then bald and patchy. Grass wasn’t mowed anywhere outside of fair and finding balls was impossible. Course Lay-out was alright and the carts were so slow, I could have walked faster. Hot Dogs were 4.50 and sub par. Course seriously wants to make you quit golf.
