Camelback Golf Club - Padre Course

I have played Padre many times... toonk my grandson for a rpund. Staff were very accommodating and pleasant as usual. We played with a very nice local couple. Despite the cart path only rules we had a great round... the course is in beautiful shape. It is a very playable course for all golfers.

NIce track what you see is what you get... use course management and you will enjoy the round

they said 10 on stimp meter exagerrated maybe 9 but greens held their line

Would play again

We played a “hot deal” tee time, so value was great that day! Very friendly staff. Nice course overall, but I personally wouldn’t want to pay full price here. Not as pretty as some other desert courses in town (was end of season and the conditions were decent considering the summer just passed).

What a sad Friday at Camelback Golf Club. Perfect weather, some spare time and a chance to get out for 18. Sadly, if this course was half as good as the staff believes it to be, it would be Augusta. Couple that arrogance with shoddy service, patchy fairways and glacial pace of play and you have a course you shouldn't play -- ever.

I've played here perhaps 10 times in the past year ... typically on sister course Ambiente, where the layout and course conditions make up for the indifferent customer service. Never again, at least where Padre is concerned.

You know the old saying - fool me once, shame on you. Fool me 10 times and there are too many better golf courses in Arizona to spend a hundred bucks on this place.

Arthur Hill got this design right. The course is right in front of you and you have to make good shots to score well. The course was in good condition and the greens rolled well. This is a country club style course with wall-to-wall grass. Trees can come into play. I played this for around $50 and it was well worth the price. I would play it again.

Course was in great shape for summer conditions. Wide fairways for those errant drives. The bunkers and water came into play on a few holes but utilizing the gps prevented sandy and wet balls. Definitely will play again but only on the summer rates due to my fixed income.

For the price of $50, this course was amazing. This is of course of late September golf in Scottsdale, where the majority of prices are now low. The course is in pretty good condition considering it's coming off the summer. Good traditional layout, greens were a little slow, but all considering it was great.

Upon arriving at Camelback Golf Club, I found it to be located a little out of the way. I wondered, Why would anyone go out of their way to play here?

Then I found out. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They took my clubs to the cart, and directed me to the clubhouse.

After playing another course in the area, I wondered if maybe the courses were letting them go due to over seeding taking place in a couple of weeks.

Not Camelback. The course was in excellent shape.

The starter, after finding out this was my first time playing, gave me some inside tips on a few of the courses. Then he said to have fun.

The beverage cart came by several times during the round. The course marshal came by, and stopped to chat for a short time. Wanted to be sure I was having a good time.

After finishing, the attendants took care of my clubs.

As I left, I thought to myself, Why don't more people go out of their way to play this course. Well Done!!

Camelback never fails to satisfy. Of course, great practice facilities; amiable staff, cart service frequent and pleasant, and 2 courses that are both fair and challenging. The greens were lightening fast and true. which is good, Once over-seeding is completed in a couple weeks, Camelback will be pristine! I look forward to several more rounds on the Padre and Ambiente during the winter season.....thanks...grw

I have played the Padre course now 4 different times. The course is not as penal as the Ambiente course as there is not nearly as much desert rough. It is well maintained and always in great shape. The few water holes are always a challenge. You need to hit your approach shot with precision in order to stay dry.

Have been playing this course for many years and it never disappoints! Always seems to be in great shape and plays very well. It can both challenge the seasoned player and be kind to the novice.

The rates here skyrocket in the winter and so for locals it becomes unaffordable but at the $50-60 price point right now get out and play this beautiful track!

GPS on cart and range balls included. Fabulous practice facilities too!

Nice Course pace of play was great. Great practice facility.

First time playing course. It is a great course player friendly. Very good staff. If you are playing during summer months. Get the earliest tee time
