The golf course at the Palmbrook Golf Club (formerly known as Palmbrook Country Club) has a reputation for being immaculately well kept. The course's greens and fairways are consistently kept in excellent condition making the course enjoyable to play. In addition to the spotless maintenance, the course at the Palmbrook Golf Club has a challenging design that incorporates water hazards in the form of a meandering brook and six lakes on the back nine. The challenging greens are fast and hard to read. There are also several bunkers that can affect play. Four sets of teeboxes provide different options.

Great value…. Wish greens were faster

Palmbrook is always in great shape. Nice overseed, fairways and green surrounds are awesome. My only complaint with the property is the speed of the greens. The practice green is fast and firm, the actual greens are very slow. Staff are great and course is good value

Conditions were very good… greens are very large and putted nicely. Speed around 9.5. Rough was full and manicured. Fairways very nice. We will definitely be back. Keep the price reasonable.

Hot afternoon at Palmbrook

We played Palmbrook on 04/07/2026 after not having been there in a while. Staff were friendly and the practice facilities excellent. Course in good shape and we enjoyed the layout. Water on the back 9 certainly comes into play!

Weather was hot and we were drinking plenty of water. Only disappointment on this course was that several of their water fountains were not working so we could not fill cup while out on the course. Otherwise we had a good experience.

Good course well worth the price

Enjoyed the course, played poorly even for me but got better as the round progressed. Course is in good shape but a lot of play so pretty slow. Could be my expectation since most rounds here and there have been fast, under 3.5 hrs, but this round was 4.5 hrs. A side note, my experience was colored by playing with one guy who was oblivious to the courtesies of golfing. Why is it in AZ that golfers do NOT fix their pitch marks on the greens, so frustrating to have these huge divits to putt through?

Pace of play

Pace was very good until back half.

Caught up to players that started in the back half even though we had an early tee time and were moving at an average pace

Slow play sucks

Started 10 min past my tee time, waited on every shot after that. 4 hours and 40 min later I was done. Conditions were great though.

First round of our trip

Pleasant experience other than the twosome behind us hitting into us. Didn’t have room in my luggage to bring my hard hat so we let them play through. No thank you of course. Two holes later caught up to them lol! Anyway, got paired up with locals which was nice that the guided my wife and I around the course. I struggled with my distances from the silver tees struggling to get greens in regulation but hey that’s just me getting old.

It’s green. That’s about all it has going for it. Layout is boring. Fairways feel a mile wide. Bunkers were wet, sand was shallow. From tee to green, everything was covered in sand. Pace of play was 4:15 for a 6:30am tee time. Kind of a joke being that slow that early. Overall it wasn’t bad. But for $100 for a really boring layout that was covered in sand, this is a miss.
