Rating 66.7

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.

The course conditions are like playing on asphalt

The tee boxes are all crowned in the middle with no level hitting area. They are so hard it was impossible to push tees in all the way. I would have to find a broken one to use. Even the fairways are hard as a rock with little grass. The greens are literally concrete.

Too many negatives to ever go there again.

Nice gradual improvement to the course

I have played Rancho Manana for 25 years. The new ownership group is making positive progress in the course

New bridge construction between holes 2 and 3

Greens are in excellent condition for late summer

Things to do still tee boxes need some more leveling

Would love to see divot repair soil at each tee box

GPS on carts would be great ( but I realize most people have their own GPS )

Stay away

Having played this course numerous times, I can say it is in the worse condition I have ever seen! Quit after 10 holes. Too dreadful to even go into detail about!

Beautiful course under some modifications but one of our favorites in Arizona. Friendly staff and golf pro shop. Terrain is challenging yet fun for the average golfer.

Highly recommend.

Course Review

We love playing Rancho Mañana. A quirky course but so much fun. Course was in good shape for summertime and the pace of play was excellent. People in the pro shop were great. The bridge on the front nine was under construction which made getting around a bit tricky. Overall an enjoyable time.

Green fees

We booked 18 holes under Golf Now for $30.00each for 18 holes . When we got there they said that was for nine holes and they charged each of us $13.00 more for another 9 holes . Total rip off.

Great course

This is a great target practice course that will have you questioning club selection. There is some construction on the course which caused a backup but it was still well worth the money

Stay Far, Far Away!

1st time playing course in over a year and save your money!

Course was in terrible condition

Fairways dry, little to no grass

Was told they had to shut water off on front 9

3 different types of grass on greens plus alot of dead areas

Bunkers were soaked

No cart girl on holes 3 to 9 cause of Course repairs

15 min tee box waits on Holes 7,8 and 9 and the list goes on

Once a fun course. Def was NOT this time

Beautiful course but overbooked.

Tee times weren’t spaced out which made for a long day waiting on every tee box. Lady in snack shack was rude.
