Rating Snapshot
About
Cave Creek Golf Course is Phoenix's most popular municipal course, seeing about 100,000 rounds yearly. In 1983, Cave Creek began as a landfill reclamation project. It's a sort of pioneer in environmental design, proving similar spots can find environmentally friendly uses. It's open dawn to dusk, year-round.
Eighteen holes of par-72 golf take golfers over 6,732 yards on the Cave Creek Golf Course, kicking off on the par-4 first hole, which measures 363 yards from the blue tees, before things get long on the second hole, which measures 510 yards from the blue tees. That's just one of four long holes, with the sixth hole measuring 532 yards from the blue tees, the 11th coming in at 521 yards from the blue tees, and the sixth having a distance of 518 yards from the blue tees. The round concludes after a suggested playing time of four hours and 10 minutes on the 18th hole, a par 4 that measures 388 yards from the blue tees.
The city of Phoenix has contracted with several hotel chains to offer stay-and-play packages for golfers at the Cave Creek Golf Course and other municipal tracks.

Nice course!
Course was in good condition and is a fun layout to play. Each hole has its own look and feel and has plenty of challenges (Water on the back, OB, trees, etc.).
Last day
Our last day in Arizona, decided to play here came away a little disappointed. We caught up to a fivesome which slow our pace of play. This course is very rough around the edges, cart paths will alter your back. The layout is fine, price was just like the course, you get what you pay for.

The course is decent for a municipal course.
Only thing missing was the beverage cart. It would be nice to add coolers on the carts with ice to help keep golfers hydrated. Course condition was good, I thought the greens were slow compared to other courses I recently played in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area. Overall good value for the price.
