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.

10th Tee. Photo submitted by molineux on 09/23/2013
Maintenance lacking
Very dry, fairways no grass, starter non existed. Nobody seem to care at all.
Very low quality. Not sure I will return.
This is a great course and the staff are awesome!
I really like KM, the course layout and the challenging fairways and greens are always fun.
As always, the staff are great and really helpful.
I recommend this course to anyone who wants to play in the Phoenix area.
Good fun for the price!
Kenny Mac is s fun golf course and a good value for your hard-earned cash. Although conditions can be spotty, the fairways are wide and open, and the layout is well designed for the space.
Good and the Bad
Course was in bad shape. Everything else was great.
Dry and expensive
Place needs water bad. Also why have bunkers if you can’t afford sand, just fill them in with grass or invest in some sand. Normally like this course but it needs some serious work for what they charge.
Best deal in the area
Although greens need some attention, the overall experience is very good and you can’t beat the price.
Confusing
One non par 3 - cart path only
Back thru parking lot hole 16 to 17/ 17 and 18 should be 10 and 11 then to back 9 (7).
Inconsistent conditions - even on greens.
Parking quite far away
