Coronado Golf Course is as excellent place for golfers to work on their short game and it is also great for beginners. The course is relatively flat making it pleasantly walkable. The greens are large and the fairways are lined with trees, but still have generous landing areas. The holes are quite challenging with water hazards and bunkers coming into play. The relaxed atmosphere and affordability of the course have made it popular among locals, yet the course is still surprisingly not crowded most of the time. Coronado Golf Course has convenient practice facilities, including a lighted driving range that stays open until 9 every night.

Best Deal Ever

For as cheap as it is to golf at Coronado, you wouldn’t expect the course to be extremely playable, staff to be friendly, and driving range to be fun, but all the above is true!

Rip off

For 9 holes on this course for what we paid should’ve included a cart. Showed up and paid an additional $14 for a cart and the course was in very bad shape with a lot of dirt spots and dead grass. This could be a really nice course if it was taken care of.

Primitive golf course

Poorly maintained golf course in the heart of Scottsdale...what a shame. Fairways were mostly dirt, minimal grass, fair greens and no protection from errant driving range balls on 9th hole. Cannot believe no one has seriously been hurt on the 9th hole with only partial netting. Be very careful when playing the last hole.. The owners of course are just begging for a lawsuit.

I have met the owners a few times, they have been trying for over a year to redo the netting, but the neighbors and the city haven't been letting them. Don't jump to conclusions. The course provides a niche. Not every course fits every person.

No fairways

The course is an executive 9 hole with short par 4s and longer par 3 holes. Outside of #1 and #9 , the fairways are nothing but dead grass. The greens are in good shape and the tee boxes are also fair. They seem to be the only places watered outside of 1and 9. There are no ball washers at all. There is a lighted driving range which seems to be popular. If you have a learning golfer, it is a good place to begin.

Just Do It!

If you have no expectations, and you just want to go have some fun with friends, on a very cheap budget this is the course for you in Scottsdale. Greens are fast and mowed correctly. Fairways are bad but challenging nonetheless. If you're picky don't go off here. The 7.99 price says it all. Go have some laughs and fun with friends. I walked in my friends road in Card. short course par 31. I shot 73 were 18

Joke of a course

Don’t waste your money. Not nice at all. Huge mud puddles where gravel and dirt cart path used to be. You’re taking your life in your hands on hole 9 - next to range and fence is either non- existent or so many holes that there were about 150 golf balls in the fairway and several balls came close to hitting us in the fairway. One hit our cart. Just an awful course!

We are sorry you did not enjoy the facility. We had a massive storm overnight and our crew did the best they could to get the clean-up finished. We never want our guests to feel in danger on hole nine, so we hope you spoke with the pro-shop about the situation. We will also make a concerted effort to keep a better eye on the driving range patrons. We never want to see a customer unhappy, but not every facility can satisfy every customer! Best wishes in your future golfing ventures!

Value for money

Course was well laid out as we did not have any trouble knowing where to go. Staff was friendly. Would be nice to have yardage markers, fortunately the women we golfed with had a device. Course was quite dry but this is the first time we have golfed in Arizona for BC. Received a very good deal on Golfnow.

Poor. Fairways

The course is an executive 9 hole course. The greens are well clipped and watered, but outside of holes one and nine, there is no grass on the fairways. It appears that they are not watering them or they have not been over seeded. Hole number two, three and nine there is a danger of being hit by a range ball as they are in the process of replacing the old nets with taller ones. However, this seems to be a five year project as I have played there the past two years and only the posts are in place. The course is a good beginner course with very reasonable rates, but for an experience golfer, it would not be a challenge.

The man at the front desk was going to refuse to let me play 18, stating that he doesn’t offer 18 hole play. I had to show him various proof of purchases at which point he allowed 18 but required us to check back after the 1st 9.

Horrible customer service

Staff extremely unfriendly. I’m a regular here at the range and play the course every so often. Never had any issues with getting the online rate in person. Staff would not set this up and gave us an extremely difficult time telling us we had to book I️t online. So we did. After doing so he informed us I️t was an additional fee to have a cart. Extremely unhelpful and rude. Then our cart died on us on the 6th hole. Would not rewccomend this course.
