Disappointed
Have played course several times. This time greens fees were significantly higher. Nearly double. Pace of play was really bad with no Marshals. No food service after round at 11:30 even though restaurant signage said open at 11:00.

Nice Course
Fairways and greens at Cathedral Canyon golf are in great shape. The course is challenging but not terrifying. I remembered it being hard to play. But both my golf partners and I made it through with minimal disaster holes. I look forward to playing here again this season.

Enjoyable course
Never saw a Marshall and could have used one on the mountain nine. Some hole directions were poorly marked and several players were lost. That slowed the course flow. Still the fairways and greens were very goid

Hard Pass
The course is unkempt with half dead trees and brown spots everywhere. No gps provided on cart. No restaurant/club house service. I guess that is closed on sundays? Pricing over what other and better courses charge. Quite possibly the unfriendliest staff I’ve encountered ANYWHERE.
