Beautiful day on a beautiful course
Course was in great condition. The play was slow, 12 holes completed in 3 hours, but the weather was very nice.
Good municipal course
The woman’s tees are too long! Good layout and greens and pace of play was good
Right Price
Course for everyone with little trouble and many parallel fairways. Municipal pace of play 4.5+ and no pretty add ons. Just basic golf at a good price if you can get a tee time. Parking is really tough on weekends so may have to park across the street near 18 green.
Generally Good Conditions
Encanto GC played well, though some tee boxes needed some TLC; fairways were good and offered good roll; greens were quite firm, forcing shots to be lagged as there was no hold; rough was still playable; while each sand trap (which there are many) was very diverse in sand levels, making shots unfairly challenging. Pace was good (4 hrs. even), as was value. Enjoyed the round and the company (I was paired with a fun threesome of regulars).
Value Muni
If you’re just looking to play, no frills, wide open course and can get a tee time this one’s for you. Short and straight with many side by side holes make this friendly for all handicaps. If you can get a tee time, $60 with a cart is good value. Slow pace of play and no memorable holes don’t make it a have to play, but an afternoon with the boys at a good rate this will more than do.
Good Value
Nice course with cool views of some Phoenix skyline at a reasonable price. Played this muni course twice during a vacation and found it enjoyable. Rough is pretty dry but not desert. Fairways and greens were in nice shape and the staff was helpful. Not the easiest course to get a tee time but worth the effort to play golf for the $60 we paid. Wife shot her lowest score ever so she really liked it.
Long and Straight
Pace was slow, we weren't able to finish in 3;44 - only got through 16 holes before ranger said we had to stop due ti city ordinances? still had daylight left to finish last 2 holes - really put a strong sense of getting ripped off. We easily could've finished the last 2 holes.
Consistent
Encanto plays hard and fast so bump and runs is a good strategy. Greens are impressively consistent
Albertagolfer
Course was in great shape, it was set up tough due to a college tournament that was out before us. Greens ran true , bunkers were great and the pace was decent
Good value course!
