Greens and Pace of Play
They pack you in on the weekends so there were 3 groups on all the par threes and a long wait. The greens are very rough and they do not roll true. Since this is a city run course, the inside staff is not great but the outside staff was excellent. Good value for this time of the year when most courses in town are north of $100.

Just fine
Played in under 4hrs. Just to let all of you know, the course is NOT forward tee friendly. I have my wife tee off at the beginning of each fairway. The course is too cheap to put in tee markers that are forward tee friendly. Most of the time, forward tees are just a few yards in front of the regular white tees!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great Change of Pace From Desert Courses
If you are looking for a course that is change from the typical desert courses, this one is perfect. This is not a punishing course. The holes pretty much all run parallel to each other, so an errant tee shot with not hurt you that much like it would in a desert course. The course has a lot of nice dog legs, greens are usually in great condition with nice pin placements. This course reminds me of a midwestern muni but with palm trees instead of oaks.

Great course but the whole “we close at 5:30 and the carts need to be returned” statement was a little upsetting there was still at least 20-30 minutes of sunlight.

Forcing strangers to share a cart
This was one of my favorite courses to play in Phoenix but unfortunately that will no longer be the case. They are not following Maricopa County Covid policies and are forcing strangers to share carts. There is no mention of this on GolfNow or their website. I asked to pay extra for my own cart and was refused. I used to recommend this course to everyone I played with, but I cannot risk my health when there are plenty of courses in the area following the rules.
Thank you for reviewing us. We see you rated the course 3-stars and are interested in learning what we can do to improve before your next round. Feel free to comment on this review or reach out to the team in the golf shop. We always appreciate the feedback. Thank you for playing Encanto Golf Course, and we hope to see you again soon.

Good to play
It's a public course run by the city . It was a good price for this time of the year. It's peak season here so prices are up. Course layout is ok considering the city park.
There's two courses a 9hole executive 18 hole all within the park.
Water all around... Hard to lose your ball flat and open area.
Played with good people which made it fun to be there... Would recommend for a good day of golf.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Thank you for the 4 stars! We aim for a 5-star experience, so we always welcome feedback for improvement. Thank you for playing Encanto Golf Course.
