Cave Creek Golf Course

The pace was terrible, nobody could move. We all gave up after 9 holes. We should get half our money back. Just saying..

Played this course before twilight hours. Same yesterday. Had a good pace but group in front was two couples and somehow playing with them was a guy with a walking cart as well. So somehow had 5 people. They’d spent too much time chasing down shanks and lost balls. Need a court Marshall. Cart girl came by once. Other than that and the pace, nice course. Wasn’t able to finish due to them taking up too much time.

Arrived at 2nd tee box as the 5th group on that hole. A ranger came through and said the whole course was backed up all the way through. So, I turned around and went to pro shop. Asked for refund. NO! How about something from the shop instead of the round…a hat, a couple of gloves…something for my money instead of the round? NO! But I will give you a 9 hole rain check…I played 1 hole, why only a 9 hole check? You payed a reduced rate (through Golf Now) so you didn’t pay enough for an 18 hole rain check!! Wow! So, they got that day’s golfing dollars from me in exchange for what? So, if that lines up with your view of proper enterprise on their part, go ahead and book a time…but bring a few magazines and a lunch….

With all the fancy, overpriced golf courses in the Phoenix-Scottsdale area, I didn't expect much from a $65 Muni. But after playing Aguila last year, another Phoenix muni that is a great course, I was keeping my fingers crossed. Bingo! Great fun layout, decent conditions, fast greens. Not quite as good as Aguila, which is probably the best bang for your buck in the whole area, but still a wonderful course that I would definitely play again.

Interesting course, nice layout and the course was in excellent shape for a mini. The cart paths are pretty rough but that doesn't really take away from the round.

Mixing pull carts with that topography is a disaster when extremely busy

Almost 2 1/2 hours to play first nine as too many folders with pull carts

This was the first time playing CaveCreek. We enjoyed the layout. It was a great walking course nice to get a course to walk. Not as manicured as other course in Scottsdale but the price made it possible for us to get out and play. So many courses are way too expensive thus not playable! We really appreciated the quantity of the fairways and greens and will definitely play again. Played with two local golfers and enjoyed our afternoon.

With all of the courses I could have chosen in the area, I am sad I chose this one. Layout is terrible. I guess it was built on a landfill. Conditions are lousy from cart paths to bare rocky ground. I won’t be returning.

We play this course about once a month, and it keeps challenging us every time. The dry creek that runs through the course will swallow balls if your accuracy is off, and if you are not familiar with the course, the hidden water features are always a surprise. As for the greens, they are very fast in the late morning and early afternoon, but as soon as the sun drops behind the trees, the moisture works its way to the surface, and they slow down. Just be prepared for a sudden change in green speeds mid-round.

Course is challenging and fun. Great value for the money.

Not as good as Aguila, but this is a solid muni and a more fun track than Dobson or Kenny Mac.
