Unlike many other courses in Phoenix, the course at the Toka Sticks Golf Club was not done in a traditional desert-style. It is known amongst locals for having very fast greens, many of which are elevated. The old Toka Sticks course was originally a nine-hole course built in 1945 but in addition to making it an 18-hole, championship course, it has had many renovations in the years since to make it a more challenging and interesting course. There are stately trees present on the course call for straight shots in order to reach the narrow fairways. Two lakes are situated on the course that create water hazards that come into play on sever holes. There are also several well-placed sand bunkers throughout. Toka Stick Golf Club also offers a short game area, a putting green and a driving range.

Good course

Solid course no big issues of any kind. Pace of play is fast ranger asked us to push even though we finished in just over 3 hours think times are just a little close for this course. Beautiful course in comparison to most in east valley so great bang for your buck, well maintained.

Women's Bathroom Still an Issue

Overall good experience, tho my wife complains regularly about the women's bathroom at the clubhouse. At least all the fixtures worked today, but the bathroom was dirty...this was before an early morning round. Field bathrooms are only fit for men.

Course is in good shape

The course is in good shape with only a few areas the are working on. I was disappointed that there is no drinking water on the course with the temperature at 105 degrees at 10:30 this morning. I was told this is due to COVID-19, I guess you won’t get COVID-19 but you could have heat stroke.

Putting in a Pasture

Arrived for our early morning tee time and took some putts on the practice green. We noticed how slow they were and asked if the course greens were the same. Response was that they were recently punched and most likely would be a little rough. If that was the only problem we could understand, but as we went through the round we could see that there wasn't any regular maintenance done. The greens were not even blown off as palm shrouds and other debris was all over the surface. Tee boxes were pock marked and trash cans were over flowing. It was quite obvious that not even the most basic maintenance had been done on the course. I am sure the course will bounce back, but very disappointed that full book was paid for conditions so deplorable.

Good beginner course

First time playing this course... was a lot of straight holes with trees down the side. Only a couple holes where water was in play but I definitely rate it as a great option for beginners. More experienced players and players looking for a challenge might not find it as good.

Great course conditions for this time of year

Starter got us off right on time and even though we waited on the majority of tee boxes to hit, the round was still played at a very good pace. All areas of the course were in the best condition of any course we have played in the last few weeks. Tee boxes, fairways and greens were all in very nice condition with only a very few dry spots. Enjoyable early round.

It’ll Do

Most holes are all the same, lots of par 4’s with the same feel/layout. For $45 it was fine but still expected a little more. Most greens had lots of dead spots around edges. No outside drinks allowed. Pace of play was fast, our group of four let the people behind us ply through.

Great value

The turf here was in excellent shape compared to competing courses like Dobson or Kenny Mac. Lots of grass, plenty of sand in the bunkers, we'll be back often this summer. Wish they offered a walking rate though.

It’s been better

Used to play here regularly until management made it difficult to play as a league, wanted payment in advance. First play in six months found us happy to be there but they were plugging already and the course seemed a mess. And they still seem priced high, no twilight rates all winter. The staff was great from carts and starters to pro shop to beverage cart. A single craft beer was $6 plus a buck tip from the cart..Off to Barios for beer afterwards, many good draft beers.

Slow Pace of Play

Foursome in front of us was extremely slow. Most of the foursome hit 2-3 shots on the tee boxes each. By the time we got to 11th hole foursome in front of them was 2-3 holes ahead. No Ranger on Course to speed up play.

Terrible attention

5 and 1/2 hours to play a round. Starting at 1245 I would see a 4 1/2 round but over 5. FLAT OUT TERRIBLE. AND I THOUGHT JOHNSON RANCH WAS BAD. This was right behind. 3 groups on all par 3’s no Marshall will drop down to the bottom of the list for weekend rounds now.
