About

Arthur Hills designed the Padre Course at Camelback Golf Club to deliver a fun round that's tough to forget. Trees tower, landforms show subtly, and bunkers improve your golf skills. The par-72 golf course measures 6,903 yards, and has gained its renown by offering a design that requires strategy.

A round of golf on the Padre Course at the Camelback Golf Club kicks off on the par-4 first hole, which measures 446 yards from the black tees. Things get long on the fifth hole, a par 5 that comes in at 553 yards from the black tees, one of four 500-plus-yard holes. The 18th hole is one of these: It's 547 yards from the black tee to the post-round celebration.

After your round on the Padre Course at Camelback Golf Club, head to the Golf Grill, serving U.S. cuisine and a fancy Sunday brunch in the style of Southwestern country clubs. There's also a luxury lounge where you can spend winters on the patio by the fireplace.

Don’t play this week.

Course is in tough condition due to the rain. Very flooded and wasn’t notified by staff the course conditions this morning. Course shouldn’t have even been open with the flooding.

Not in good shape

I was thinking it was going to be a beautiful course for the $175 . I had a 1:36 t-time we arrived 45 minutes early and they told us we were cart path only on padre course so switched us to the other course and told us we were up right now so we were hurried out to tee box , the grass was patchy lots of bare spots and very green was elevated I mean every one!,, never going back.

Good overall experience. Clubhouse staff left a bit to be desired for service. Sand hard, needing to pick vs blast.

Great day on the links

I had guests from Alaska and Ohio and treated them to a day of golf at Camelback. We had a wonderful day of golf. The staff was exceptional. We felt very welcomed and loved the course.

Beautiful Course

Loved playing the Padre course. Great layout with various types of holes throughout. There is plenty of water for a AZ course but it is a very player friendly layout. The course conditions were fantastic, greens were firm and true. There was a tournament here the two days we played and you wouldn't know it by pace of play or the course. The Padre was very impressive. Lunch at the clubhouse was good too.
