Camelback Golf Club - Padre Course
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.

Golfer Reviews
A good challenge
This is a wonderful course. I would play it again today if I could.
You can’t always use driver if you want to position the ball for your second shot. You have to be a great short iron player , know how to stay out or get out of bunkers, and when you get to the green, you need to trust your eyes and putt well.
Very friendly staff who want to say yes to your requests rather than no.
Great day
Had a great time with our first day of golf starting out at this course.good shape and the greens were in great shape.!!
Great Day
Arrived on site and was greeted by a continuous rain. Began the course by myself since the others in my golf now group choose to stay dry. Hooked up with a Canadian (John) Alberta on the fourth hole and proceeded to have the course to ourselves. I enjoyed this course very much. The greens were in excellent shape very few divot scars. Played the padre side of the 36 which is a standard layout what you see is what you get. Course difficulty is a fair track, step back a box and toughen it up if you want. As always the company is what makes or breaks a round. John the Canadian was a joy to play with. This Marriott property is very well maintained. Would love to play 36 next time out if time allows.
A wet Valentine's
Game started out in light drizzle but by the back nine it was full shower mode.Hard to appreciate the beauty & challenge of the course when it was so wet!
I love it
I had the place mostly to myself which was just great
Love this course
Good course
We really enjoyed our round the greens were as advertised the defence for the course cause they were fast. The only downside was the GPS carts as advertised never did work and the course employee could not get it to work either.
Scottsdale golf trip
The whole experience was great from the checking in to the completion of the round. Wonderful staff and great course. Would go back anytime and would highly recommend it. We were a twosome so it played slow because we play fast but we still done in about 4 hours
Padre at Camelback.
Always have an excellent experience at the Padre course.
Nice day in the sun
Enjoyed the course, enjoyed the sun, had a family if about 7 in front of us, but coutse marshall did a great job, we actually wrnt sround them and skipped a hole which was
Course was in great condition
Greens were fast and true. Makes it a challenge given a few short par 4s.
Not impressed
I booked this course through Golf Now "Hot Deal" I also used $30 in rewards I earned from Golf Now. Granted, it was an awesome deal, but when we drove to our ball on the first hole, the cart would not go on the course. It was then and only then that we found out that it was "cart path only".. It was NOT stated on Golf Now and the Pro Shop did not inform us. The reason I gave Camelback a poor review is because, they should have first informed Golf Now (which they didn't) and they did not inform us. It was totally their responsibility to inform SOMEONE!!!!! I called Golf Now, and they said their is no compensation for reserving a course with a "Cart Path Only enforcement. I stated that I walked the course because I DID. I would rather have had a hand cart.
Also, the greens had just been sanded, so the putting was ridiculous. I believe it is the responsibility of both the course AND Golf Now to inform ANYONE making a reservation to advise them of their "Cart Path Only" and sandy greens.
So, beware next time you reserve a tee time.
Nice afternoon of golf
Marriott Camelback is a very nice golf facility. they have a very nice driving range and practice facility. could have used a little more overseeding this year. overall a very nice golf course with a good place of play and nice staff
