Best shape in years.

Greens were fast and fairways had plenty of grass. The outside bar was great also.

Fun Course

Fun day trip. Course conditions were fair. Staff was absolutely incredible. Donna in the beer patio was outstanding!!! Pace was great. Value was great. I live in Gilbert so the 45 minute drive to the course is sadly equivalent to going to Scottsdale but this course is more than half the price of Scottsdale courses. Will be going back. Plan on staying after and eat at the restaurant on site.

At one time a good course

At one time it was a good course. Lay out is good but over all it’s tired course. Needs some TLC.

Was Okay

Course conditioning was equivalent to a muni but the price was lower than other courses. Like the course layout. Greens and especially the tee boxes were hard (lack of watering?).

Played the tips

Supposedly the longest course in Arizona. I played the blacks all the way back just for giggles. Played a little over 7500 yards. Probably the easiest 7500 yard course anywhere. Flat as can be. Lots of tree sand a good amount of water for a desert course. Tee boxes and fairways were rough, greens were actually pretty good. Consistent throughout. I will play it again. Course was packed but pace was under 4 hours. Very enjoyable.

Greens were excellent...some fairways were good, others a little rough

We arrived early for our 8:52 tee time and were able to get off about 30 minutes early. As a two some we were waved thru 2 groups and finished our round in about 2.5 hours. Staff was very accommodating.
