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.

muni course west phoenix
greens and fairways in good shape. pace of play was slow. good value for the money this time of year
Thank you for visiting us! We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Tres Rios
The fairways are laid out to challenge the player and in really good shape. The greens are patchwork and fast. The holes are cut on any slant on the green surface. None of them are flat. The rough is shabby and nonexistent. The bunkers are hard and without sand making it tough to get under the ball.
The pace of play was such that you had to wait for at least one group at every tee box if not 2. It took 4.5 hours to play a round that should have taken 3.5.

Decent course in a scenic location
We played this course for the first time with some friends. We played 9 holes with carts. Overall the course was decent, but the condition of the greens was below average. Some greens were so rough and weathered that we had to move our golf balls to a smoother area of the green to be able to putt. The grass in the tee boxes and in the fairways was barely adequate, The mature trees between the fairways made the course somewhat challenging. Overall, for the cost and value, we enjoyed playing at Tres Rios. Our experience would have been better if the condition of the greens was better. The course attendant was very friendly and courteous (did not get her name)

Worth Playing
Glad we played this course. It is quite inexpensive to play so it is worth it. The greens are pretty quick until you putt across a patch of grass that is not thin like the rest of the green. Fairways are OK, but if you are off the fairway at all it is hard packed dirt/sand.

I had hope
It has been some time since I played Tres Rios and when I found the tee time and a 3 star rating I hoped to have a good time. Unfortunately the greens were bad shape and the better fairways could only make up a little bit. Adding to the problem is that we played only 15 holes in 4 hours and had to cut our round short for early evening activities. The other members of the group made the round very livable.

A cow pasture! We quit at 15. Cheap it was and we got what we paid for!

Improving
Some areas of the greens font look very good but they roll well and have good speed. Fairways are good, but don’t go off, pretty bare otherwise. Lots of room for misses. You get what you pay for.

Nice layout, poor customer experience ...
Course needs lots of TLC but has a pretty good layout nonetheless...
Pro shop staff however definitely need people skills...The course is hurting for business and they clearly don’t care about a good customer experience...too bad.
Many other affordable courses in the west valley - play somewhere else.

Just ok....
We only paid $35 to play this course so I guess we got our money’s worth... not much going on here!

Getting better
Fairways are better than last year but greens and tee boxes still require attention. Fairways are narrow and if you miss you are either on hard pan or in long grass and weeds. Staff were friendly and helpful. Hope to be back again next year and see more improvements.

Revitalization of Tres Rios
This course has had it's tough times over the last couple of years. But to those who like a nice layout, surrounded by the Estrella mountains instead of homes, know this. Tres Rios fairways are as good as any courses in the area. The greens roll true....spots look a bit rugged, but really didnt affect the read, nor the putts themselves. Some of the normal amenities like ball washers, frequent water buckets would be nice additions. However, the course itself is much, much improved. Hats off to the Tres Rios team for bringing this course back! The courses I have been playing are Palm Valley, Falcon Dunes, Falcon, Sundance. Right now, I question why I am paying $60+ per round at these courses, when Tres Rios is $34 per round....the more I play, the better I get, And I can play almost 2 full rounds at Tres Rios compared to the other courses. To the Tres Rios team.. Thank you. Keep up the good work!
We appreciate you leaving a review and rating us. We will inform the entire team, so they know their hard work is paying off. We look forward to having you back at Tres Rios Golf Course!
