Ken McDonald Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Located in the metropolitan Phoenix area, the affordably priced Ken McDonald Golf Course is a championship-length course that is suitable for any level of golfer. The flat terrain of the course makes for an enjoyable stroll, while the water hazards that come into play on eight holes provide plenty of challenge. The water hazards are provided by the Western Canal, which flows directly through the golf course. The par-5 11th hole is the longest on the course at 570 yards; it is very difficult to reach in two shots. In addition to the course, Ken McDonald Golf Course offers several other amenities including a restaurant, club fitting and repairs, and professional golf instruction.

Good for the price
This course isn’t the most challenging layout, but the price is right. This track is well maintained compared to other courses at its price point. The greens are extremely slow, so be ready to re-calibrate your flat stick accordingly. I’ll play this course again.
Nice course
I've played this course many times, and it is consistently very nice.
POLICE were called over THREE beers
Would NOT recommend this course. I purchased 8 beers from the bar before whole one, had three leftover beers in my bag from a few rounds prior which the cart lady had seen. She proceeded to take those beers dump them out and then said she was kicking us off the course because we brought outside alcohol in. Mind you this is 5 holes in on a Sunday early afternoon at a below average golf course. The cart lady then sent out a 17 year old worker who threatened to “see us in the parking lot” “call some people” and more continuous threats. We were then kicked off hole 11 by the police after the cart girl continued to harass us about the beers through whole ten. We didn’t hold up pace of play, disrespectful, cussing, or any of the matter prior to being kicked off the course. Go golf somewhere you know and like vs somewhere they don’t even want you to play.
Always a good time!
Kenny McDs is a great course! Close by, decently maintained, affordable, and the beer cart and bar service are always awesome.
Fun course, slow greens
I really enjoyed my round here, just wish the greens weren’t so slow
