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.

A work in progress

Sort of out of the way, check in easy, carts good, have sand and windshields, buckets for towels, limited water for us on course, fairways pretty good and green and often on the narrower side, roughs can be fair to bad, bunkers have some sand, greens don't putt too badly, but still bad areas and even punched out marks here and there, I think it is some better than years ago, but still needs lots of care, don't have great expectations and the back nine will beat you up

Still in Great shape

Great shape from tee to green. Even had a cart girl out there and sent out a marshal to help with slow play. After he came out not a problem for the rest of the round. Nice challenging course with it's trees.

Course has gotten way nicer

Course is in its best shape in years. Lori the course manager is very helpful and try’s to get everyone out on time . Sand traps actually have sand in them now ( not that you should be in them anyway) looking forward to my next round

A modest course but great company

As the prices reflect, this is not a high end golf course. The 3 people I joined were all fantastic to spend an afternoon with. All in all, it was fair value (cost = course condition).

Tres Rios is back!

It's been over a year since I played here.

My last review was not as nice as this one will be.

Looks like overseed caught this year and course is 100%

better, greens are spotty in areas but the putts rolled well.

I have always enjoyed the layout here with both long and short par 4's.

Do yourself a favor and go try it out.

God bless and enjoy your round.

Great Value

New gas carts, no GPS, fairways are the best I've ever seen at Tres Rios and the greens were fine for the most part. We've been playing Tres Rios since 2010. As snowbirds, each year we come back not knowing what to expect. Yesterday was a bit of a treat.
