Grand Canyon University Golf Course

For this time of the year especially given the record high temps I found the course in excellent. Greens rolled well fairways lyes were good and ther rough was penal.

Can’t ask for more than that.!

Food pricing more that fair with really good quality!

Huge shout out to the greens keeper at Grand Canyon. Best greens I’ve played all year although sadly they are going to be punched on Monday.

Course in great shape although rough was US Open length and difficult to find ball even when you know where about it went.

Chose this course for the proximity to where I was staying. Was greeted very nicely by attendant at carts who gave me direction to clubhouse and loaded my clubs. Clubhouse staff were very friendly and welcoming. Course was in very good shape for the heat that has hit Phoenix in July. I was not expecting it to be so lush and green. Easy course to play, wide open and forgiving to a slicer like me. Would definitely play here again.

The course is in surprisingly good condition, considering the heat. The greens were great, bunkers were in great shape(another surprise for Phx in Summer), and the fairways were the best I’ve seen in the area in weeks. The young lady in the pro shop was dealing with register//computer issues & handled it very well.

All in all, a great round.

This course is in great shape, especially for summer conditions. Greens are pure and carry good pace. The issue with this course is that management has completely destroyed the point of booking a morning tee time. We paid more money to play an early tee time to somewhat avoid the heat and play a quicker pace. Played the front 9 quick. THERE WERE 4 GROUPS AT 10. Selling tee times to start on hole 10 at 8am?!? What are you thinking!? We waited for 25 minutes on every tee box on the back 9. Unbelievable. I get making more money. But tee times to start on the back at 8?! Then we go in to get an explanation and what do they say? PLAY SLOWER. WE TELL PEOPLE TO PLAY SLOW. WHAT!?!?? Since when do golf courses want you to play SLOW when you are one of the first tee times on the sheet!?! Not to mention staff tried to get defensive and fight me because I should have “played slower” - i dont know how to play slower than a 3 hour back 9????? What a joke. Clown show. No point in paying extra for a morning tee time here. Zero.

I don’t expect much for summer course conditions so I was really pleased with condition of the greens. Some dry areas are to be expected and there weren’t very many.

A little disappointed that they don’t have any ball washing posts- is that faux pas for nice courses or something?

Although my booking was still active with Golf Now, the course did not have my booking. They were still able to get us on only 7 minutes later. Wonderful staff.

Hadn’t played GCU course since it was a Phoenix muni course way back when. Great to see the investment GCU had made in the course and facilities.

Fun layout, LOTS of sand. Typical AZ summer conditions, but very well maintained. We’ll be back!

Fun to play, lots of Sand Traps.

Staff was super nice.

Overall, decent experience. I expected a bit more of course due to being a championship course, but course was under construction several areas, pace of play was slow, lakes were low on water, not a lot of shade and shop closed early.

Definitely one of the top 3 Phoenix city courses. I haven't played in over a year and today reminded me how good it is. Greens are only going to get better.

The course has a great layout, but was recently aerated. The greens were a little bumpy as expected. Some bare area on the fairways.

The restaurant wasn't open until 9 a.m. Our tee time was 6:58, so we were too early.

They have a driving range and range balls aer reasonable.

Overall, it was a good experience.

I realize it’s summer… but the course was in really rough shape… fairways well below average and greens were recently airated so balls bounced not rolled… pace of play was well below expectations, mostly due to no staff on course to manage pace of slower groups… I will play again but wait until course is in better shape

Enjoyed our round at GCU. Fairways were spotty in areas, but that is to be expected in the 100+ temperatures of the Phoenix area. Overall a nice course with a large amount of bunkers to increase the difficulty slightly. Bacon Avacado Chicken wrap ordered at the turn was amazing!!
