Trail Ridge Golf Course offers a good game on a truly desert landscape. Built on mostly flat terrain, the course can be walked but there are some holes that are quite hilly. Ponds situated throughout the golf course create water hazards that come into play on six holes. There are some elevated tees and greens as well as strategically placed sand bunkers to add further challenges. Four sets of tee boxes ensure that golfers of all skill levels and abilities will enjoy the course. The Trail Ridge Golf Course facility also features practice facilities including a putting green and chipping area and there is also a fully stocked pro shop.

Overall a decent course, worth playing

greens a lil thin, but rolled fairly, fairways a lil hard, lil thin on the lies...challenging shots, 2 par 3's over 200+...not a big "gas cart" fan, but that the way it goes.

Nice Track…

Nice course, Green in all the right places. The greens rolled pretty pure. However, you didn’t get much action on the greens from approach shots. I have to mention that they charge $16 per rider for carts. Scored a hot deal otherwise a little pricey. Fun time.

Good conditions & fast greens. For the value you can’t beat Sun City West courses. Nice amenities & friendly staff. Sun City could definitely learn a thing or two from SCW on how to maximize the golfing experience

Excellent value, fairways and greens in excellent shape, some bare areas in rough- expected this time of year. Would recommend to anyone looking for good value and willing to drive. Fairly flat and easy to Walk.

Great course

If you haven't played this course, it's a must if you play courses in Sun City West. It is vastly different from the other 3 par 72 public courses in SCW. It offers plenty of challenging holes with a few easy holes as well. Plenty of water, bunker hazards make it a challenge.
