The course u see is not the same condition!!

Luckily, the course did not charge me! I only paid fee to golf now. I did not play after being so disappointed . The pics all over the internet are not the recent pics of course. The course looks as though they still have not repaired the damage from last years huge rain storm(hurricane). Very deceptive and very disappointed. Don’t be fooled!!

Storm Recovery

The course was hit hard by storms this past year and this has had a serious impact on the course. The 1st and 10th, which are both usually par 5s, were shortened to par 3s. It’s a nice layout, but the overall quality of the tee boxes, fairways and greens was a disappointment.

Not bad as many others say

1st and foremost. The starter Asha (hopefully I spelled that correctly), was great. Staff in pro shop were very nice and kind as well. Holes 1 and 2 were flooded in Hurricane hilary and they are now par 3's. The driving range was flooded as well. Yes, there are some dried out spots in the fairways, and the rough will eat your balls. Course greens were very nice. Greens were not bumpy, dry, or anything, Greens were rolling like any big course in the valley. Course was not packed, so we were not rushed on pace of play at all. Layout is tough, but overall, not bad for the price. If you can overlook the dead spots and no range, the course is actually a great value for the money!

Cathedral Canyon 16 hole golf course

1st and 10th holes pretty much useless / taken out in the wash. Got a deal on Tee off so it was good enough to give it a try.

Fall from grace

I've played this course a few times over the years and it used to be a nice little place to play on a budget. Playing this week was very sad to see this course in such poor condition. I hope it comes back to its former glory of years past. Great friendly staff.

The course is lack of care

The course is in poor condition, couple of holes could not differentiate the fairway from the green and yet to fairway was not in good condition neither. There were some good features on few holes, but due to lack of care….the water feature became mud puddled. The course layout is a long drive between holes. It seems to be course built around housing rather than homes built around the course. The guys that we play with quite after 9 holes, he stated he pay for 18 holes ( we were also lost interest after 13 holes or so). He said he was there because is cheap, but then you get what you pay for.

Terrible course

This is the worst course in the desert and probably the worst course I have ever played. And I have played a lot of golf over the years.

Fun Course

Conditions are good. Better than other reviews I have read. They have almost lost a few greens, but still puttable. Fairways were nice and tee boxes ok.
