Rancho Manana Golf Club has one of the prettier courses in Cave Creek-Scottsdale, located high in the Sonora and combining vistas with testing golf. It offers a par-70 championship golf course laid out over elevations that change dramatically right up alongside the untouched desert and the indigenous wildlife that comes with that, as well as an old-school dude ranch that has been incorporated into the golf resort. Low-handicap golfers will be challenged by the golf course, but it's not so tough that other levels of golfer will be turned away.

The Rancho Manana Golf Club offers golf to the public and is conveniently located just 20 minutes off the highway.

After a round of golf at the Rancho Manana Golf Club, stick around for around and maybe some eats at the Tonto Bar & Grill, which has received several awards and is listed among Arizona's top 100 restaurants.

Cart path only

I love playing this course, it’s unique and the scenery is beautiful with the mountains, cacti and wildlife. It is not a course I would do again if it was cart path only. Between the mountains and fairways, unless you’re in great condition, it’s tough with all the walking. I will be back, when seeding is finished.

Great hidden gem

This course has great potential. It is short. I played the back tees which was unusual. It was being overseeded so cart path only and the greens were slow as they didn't seem mowed or rolled. I think this isn't a normal condition. Great course layout and reasonable rates.

First round after overseed

Fairways and rough in great condition. Greens are still a little fuzzy. Sand traps were inconsistent probably due to watering. Overall conditions as expected for just after overseed.

Shaggy, slow greens but awesome layout

Course was a very shaggy especially on the greens (which are tiny), but an awesome/challenging layout, with some big elevation changes, great scenic views

El Rancho

We played on the 14th and the course was due for overseeding on the 16th, so the course had been neglected for a few days.

You get what ya pay for in the off season

First off this was - “Hot Deal Tee Time” for a reason. The course is preparing for overseeding and hadn't been watered recently. The tee boxes were rock solid, no tees could be forced into the ground and the greens were terrible. I realize that courses go through prep for overseeding, however this was crazy. No refreshments on course either. C’mon Rancho Manana I know you can do better!

Cool course needs some work.

Course has a cool layout. Definitely a fun course. My biggest gripe is the tee boxes. Need a hammer just to get a tee in. Most of the greens were nice. There was 2 greens that Definitely needed work. One had lots of sand spots and one had some weeds especially around the fringe. The other issue is it sounds like they are short staffed. Had one of our carts die on the 8th hole, took them 35 minutes to get us a new one and we had to let a couple groups play through. All in all it was a good course I would play again but I won't go out of my way to go back.
