Rating Snapshot
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.

The sign near the 5th hole Photo submitted by Hiroko9831738 on 12/02/2012
Best maintained , great tricky greens
Great staff, well managed , great pro, doesn’t get better value coupled with two best courses that are under rated in the valley
Love the course
Love this course for the visit
Fun, pretty simple, well kept.
Most employees are awesome there, but when I come in the shop the first minute and get reprimanded….
So I was proudly wearing new golf clothes shoes and a $150 t shirt on my 5 day golf trip.
I was almost instantly greeted wiith “we only allow collared shirts here”… not happy
I changed shirts into a low quality polo and as I was walking out of the bathroom, a young woman was walking to her cart in tiny shorts and BARELY a tank top on. While she was lovely it made me feel slighted in that I couldn’t wear a beautiful t shirt and expensive golf PANTS (not shorts or a tank top Lol) with new golf shoes and look better than most by the way….
Just a thought.🤨
Thanks for reading.

Challenging layout!
Course was fairly well groomed. Great layout. Ok tees, greens and fairways. Approaches were weak. And, for big sand traps please invest in more rakes!
Excellent golf and service
Wonderful course and the service was excellent. Play this course!
Nice track
First time playing, great mix of parkland and desert golf. Everything from the checkin, range, 1st tee starter, on course beverage and club cleaning was great. Will definitely come play here again. The only slight is the greens are very grainy and putting can be a challenge, make use of the green reader function on their GPS system.
