Grand Canyon University Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Grand Canyon University Golf Course (formerly known as Maryvale Municipal Golf Course) offers an 18-hole track designed by Ted Robinson, Sr. and built in 1961. The par-71 golf course measures 7,269 yards from the championship tees and is open year-round.
The Bermuda grass Grand Canyon University Golf Course gets plenty of shade during the summer, thanks to several onsite trees, and features flat and wide fairways.
The fourth hole, for one example, is a 160-yard par-3 where you'll have to shoot over the water - and past the brick wall that separates the green from the water.

Nice course and affordable
Good challenging track. Fairways and greens were very well groomed, Bunkers were decent sand quality. Rough was the only negative--wet with very little grass to hit off of. But for $85 it was a nice round with good pace of play
Dr. Freiheits GCU course review
I had an excellent time playing golf with this fine, newly revamped old course in West Phoenix. The staff was awesome, professional and attentive to the few questions I had . The greens were perfect for putting on the course. It's incredible to imagine there's such a wonderful course in the Phoenix city confines. Aside from the 1st hole down Indian school road, you are lost then amongst the great old grand trees that have been there for decades and the fairways that are tucked away from site of the busy city. Arriving at the course is easy as the course is accessable off the 202 or I 10 freeways. Thank you.
Looks are deceiving
Crazy fast greens and protected by bunkers. Good luck!
Decent Course
First time I’ve played the course and I thought it was a nice public course. Good layout but the maintenance of the fairways was somewhat disappointing. Long grass on fairways and somewhat over watered. Greens we’re okay and a little on the slow side for me. I’d play it again though so overall a 4 out of 5 rating.
Great City Course
One of the best city courses. Lots of walkers however pace of play was consistent and timely. Bunkers surround almost every green which made it challenging. I enjoyed it.
Dog track
The course is in horrible condition they charge $135 greens fees I wouldn’t pay more than $20 for this course absolutely embarrassing that this course is in the condition it’s in for the price that they charge. Absolute travesty
Desert course
Pretty flat and very walkable.
Greens were in good shape and rolling well.
Not real scenic but staff was very friendly.
Therrien
Great course layout!! A little slow but not bad!! Would definitely play again!!
Great day
Nice track with length being the biggest challenge if you choose to play back. Forgiving, not easy to lose a ball. Conditions were good. Service in restaurant was excellent. Cart girl was good on the course and we saw her a few times which was great. Overall great experience, I will be back for sure. Great value.
Nice playing condition
Nice condition deep bunkers were a challenge but the pace of play was a little brutal.
Pace of play
Teed off at 10:30 did not finish until 3:30...Never saw a single ranger to help speed up pace of play...
