Feel good course
I really enjoyed playing Encanto.
Good municipal course to get started in golf. Big fairways inspire confidence. The bunkers are a joke. More like giant pot holes with hard dirt. It looked like the were attempting to improve the bunkers. We’ll see about that in a month or two.
The course is very flat and the greens are all elevated it seemed. The greens were in decent shape.
Will play again, and bring my kids.
summer in the city
Ideal late summer course conditions. The heat keeps the masses away at this time of year so a 3 hour round is doable especially with a cart.
Greens were rolling nicely and evenly throughout my round especially on #18 where I carded an unexpected Eagle ! Fairways were recently mowed so most approach shots were usually solid. The newly re-opened Grill is a major plus especially on a hot day.
Course staff were friendly, personable and focused.
Definitely a course that will appeal to all levels of golfers.
Good practice areas as well.
Encanto is always a good choice!
Played Encqanto today at 6 am with the fellas today. The course was in pretty good condition. The greens were rolling true but not too fast. Overall the round was enjoyable and the staff was nice. The newly remodeled 19th hole was really nice. Good to see the City of Phoenix starting to take pride in their properties. Definitely recommend playing soon.
Thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Encanto Golf Course.
Play Encato Enchanted Golf at its best!
The conditions are very good private company took over the maintenance and they're not afraid to turn on the water or possibly the current rain may have helped. The greens were in good shape(wish golfers can (FIX THEIR BALL MARKS)
We would like more sand in the traps. Overall I recommend playing great shape for 100°+temperatures Rough was cut just right. Greens were well manicured with just the right amount of water
Enjoyed our day, Hats off to new maintenance crew
PLEASE FIX. YOUR. DIVOTS
LEAVE IT BETTER THAN YOU FOUND IT! YOU!

The course was in great shape.
The grounds were being maintained very well. Grass was in good shape , traps were good but need sand. Trees and edges of the course were well maintained, as well as the practice areas. Facilities were clean.

Classic parkland layout inthe "COP."
First off I'll need to Thank Mike 4working W/Me onthe time adjustment I needed 2day! Then there's always the wonderful condition of those mature greens at Encanto, very nice/smooth. Fairways also in very good shape, that helps My ball sit-up fine, I NEED that. Must Thank "Teresa" (Her code name She said) in the restaurant who is quite cordial as I bugged Her for a couple cups of ice N water 2stay "hydrated." Only parts of the course(a couple of tees and some collars) have started to be punched is why only 3stars for condition, normally a 4+ I feel. Played some holes on the front W/Alex which added to the Outstanding Friday afternoon Golf 2day(!) -B Well.

BEST PUBLIC COURSE IN PHOENIX FOR THE MONEY
My partner lost his head cover TWICE! Both times it was retrieved by the cart girl and returned to him. As for the course, the Greens are very smooth and fairways are large. But there are hazards lurking. Water comes into play bunkers and beautiful wild life. Great place for s practice round and challenging for beginners and advanced players. The new restaurant is really delicious and looks fantastic with great drinks and liquor selections Whiskey lovers rejoice. Also the pizza is fantastic! sandwiches are thick and full of meat. I got one from the cart girl. Turkey is the way to go! Plenty of trees to get shade. Turtles and fish in the water. Loved it! Friendly staff!

Golf outing
It's warm now in Phoenix and the course is drying out. I understand that issue. I will say the greens were good. The cart lady was very professional!!!!!
It would of been nice if the snack bar was open earlier than 6:30.
Good deal
First time I've played here in at least 15 years. Pleasantly surprised. A ranger actually sped up a terribly slow forsome in front of us. Otherwise it would have been a long day. The coarse was in really good shape, especially the greens. One problem. $18 for a cigar in the clubhouse is a little overboard. I'll be back.

Green fairways
I had played Grand Canyon University on Monday and the fairways were not as nice as Encanto. Will come back beaucase of the pace and the price.
Thank you for taking the time to review us. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. Encanto Golf Course thanks you!
Good
A municipal course. Nothing crazy here. Greens are stiff and quick. Not bad but not awesome either.
Good golf, great price
I’ve played here several time, but it’s been awhile since the last time. They’ve added great new amenities, course was in great shape. Green were fast and rolled true. Staff was courteous , price was right. Good place to play.

Encanto 18
The course was in great shape and I was paired with two great guys from Chicago. The pace was a little slow and we waited on several holes.
There was no food or beverage sales except from a cart. $8.00 for a sandwich was a little much. Overall a good day and a pleasant round.
