I feel that we were mislead by the description and it proved even worse

The Positive; the fairways are beautiful, green and mowed nicely.

The Negative:

The greens were patchy, rough, and in terrible shape.

The experience on the back nine was THE WORST!!!!! The person that checked us in could’ve easily explained the situations and provided a map.

No signage, getting lost, #10 a mess, cart paths worse than roads in a 3rd World country!!

No restaurant, 3 day old sandwiches in the pro shop.

And we paid $79.00 each!! RIPPED OFF!!

Fun challenging course with great views

Really fun course with plenty of water and bunkers to make it challenging. Staff was great got us right on and on time. Zero problems with pace of play. Didn’t have to stop once. Fairways were very thick grass and almost felt like rough which was a bit of an issue and the greens were not in great shape. All in all very fun day on the coirse

Cathedral Canyon

We have visited this course numerous times over the last few decades. This visit we were sad to see that it is in very rough condition. The restaurant and bar are closed down. Only two staff members. The greens haven’t come in yet. Some of the fairways were in good shape but the rest of the course is floundering. As with many other local courses that are struggling, maybe the homeowners should try to take over this course and revive it.

Greens need help

Overall the course had a good layout, but it needs a lot of course management the greens are in very poor shape. They need to do some clean up around the course.

Not as bad as some reviews

You get what you pay for here. Course just reseeded so will need time to recover. Greens spotty in areas but playable. Overall only 10th hole shortened due to wash reconstruction. It's not as bad as some of the ratings. Overall a fun course to play if you have an open mind.

NOT too bad

I played with another single and and a couple.

The course made myself and the other single share a cart. They had over 20 empty carts available and no cars in the parking lot. It made for slower play. Course conditions were not that good.

Course okay

I upon arrival and at check in I then found out cart. Path only. If I had known that would not have played but couldn’t get a refund. That should be on the booking site.

Don't Bother

Brutal. Shouldn't be open. Unfortunately we pre-paid for 3 rounds. I take it they re-seeded during the heat in October. Cart path only. Greens are a way of time as they barely have any grass and are bumpy. Even if a deal; save your money.

Course was nice for the value in the area

I was unpleasantly surprised that there was no driving range or restaurant… I wish I wouldn’t know prior to booking and/ or they would of stated that… our group got there an hour early to hit balls and have breakfast and none of that took place … round was still fun but it could of been better …. Also no golf cart on the course going around with food or drinks

First day course was opened for the year. Greensand fairways are in poor shape but should improve when grass grows more. It is going to take some time but may check it again in 3-4 weeks to see what it looks like.
