Golfer Reviews
Great Muni
My first time playing Encanto and was quite surprised - in a good way.
Greens were firm and FAST...loved it
Fairways were green and in very good shape, get off fairway and you could get sketchy lies.
Slow back 9
Front 9 was acceptable but the back 9 was really slow with a 4 person group holding up 4 final groups from finishing their round. No one in front of that foursome for 5 holes. No marshall on site to speed this group up so everyone could finish Grrrrrrr
Good Muni
Very busy, but got off on time and played in 4 hours flat with not golfing well on the front 9. Paid $50 and were expecting less!
Cart guy was a hard worker, running carts from the time we got there till the end of the day.
I had a blast year. Good course. I am defiantly coming back. I played with 2 different groups of people as my original group left after 9. I joined another group and they were great too. I am a new golfer and this course was perfect for my skill level.
Van Edmonton
I was the only one in my tee time that showed up so I played as a single between two foursomes, not ideal.
Got slow after the front 9 so I replayed the front rather than wait on the back
Slow play
Ended up following Junior College men and women. What are we teaching our young players. Slow play is never acceptable. Unless you want fewer players and less money in golf speed up these players. Golf courses are charging between 20%_40% higher. Slow play and outrageous costs will end profit in golf and as a result close courses. Teach our young players to play faster and benefit us all.
Perfect day to play golf
The weather was great and the course was in great condition. If have played the course for many years and never have witnessed the green so fast. They are too fast for the average golfer.
OK
Ordinary flat course, with extremely fast greens and all else OK.
Always a great value
Great value in the valley! Greens were rolling nice, will be back to play more rounds
Nice course
Bunkers are stiff, no cart path few holes and not once did drink cart lady come anywhere close to our group. Other than that and ton of burnt grass roughs it is decent course
Pleasant Surprise
Finding good value during the week of the WM Phoenix Open can be a challenge. The four of us played in less than 4 hours and never felt rushed. The course is basically flat with some elevation when approaching the greens. While the forward tees are not a big advantage to our wives, they appreciate the roll they got from their tee shots.
I would recommend the course to anyone who asks look forward to playing again.
The staff was courteous, welcoming, and helpful!
