Terrible Conditions!
The course was in terrible condition. The fairways were bare and the greens were all scuffed up. Course was basically unplayable. The staff was terrible - the ranger is an a-hole. And you have to deal with the "members" (why would anyone pay to belong to this crappy course?) who act like the own the place. There are so many better places to play in Scottsdale area - no one should bother to play this course, which is basically a crappy muni track
Good choice
I’ve never been to AZ in the summer so I can’t really compare but I thought the course was in very good condition considering the heat. My only complaint and it’s definitely not just here but most places, I think the pro shop/starter could do a lot better to pair up singles and doubles to aid the pace of play.
stunning views while playing
Padre course absolutely beautiful. While enjoying the layout the course the view of the skyline was a plus. the greens were fast and really hard in some places. the best part was the staff. super friendly and helpful. I will be looking forward for a return visit to play the other course.
Just fun to play and the water does come into play!
Great staff
Love the on course Marshall’s - Rick is great and keep the pace. We played as a twosome and got done in 3;10.
Fun course
Out of towner
Lunch at the clubhouse started us off with excellent food and service. Golf course was in great shape and staff was very friendly and helpful
nice views
played the PAdre which Is very playable , fairways are generous but plenty of stuff to keep your interest. ( the starter told me the other course is more of a links style and the fairways require a more precise tee shot.) There are a couple of holes that the greens roll off to a shaved hill side into the water. So some prior knowledge would be helpful. The greens were nice , big and smooth ball rolled well. Traps were a little shy of sand but in good shape. Take time to look at the camelback mountains they are visible on most holes. ( i had a golf pass tee time credit so I basically played for free. I usually don't play $100 courses so I can't say if the value was at market but It was a very pleasant course.
