Style Desert
Par 70
Length 6016 yards
Slope 128
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 is in a beautiful setting but is poorly maintained!

The greens were VERY poorly maintained. Most of them were slow, bumpy and a few even had crab-grass growing on them.

Afternoon golf

The golf course layout was not bad for a short course, however the greens were awful ( crab grass) in them. Pace of play was slow!

Pretty Course, Rude Pro Shop

This was the second time I've played this course. Mt first visit, I was very rudely greeted by an older man in the pro shop, something along the lines of "what do you want". I went back this weekend, when I checked in a different older man greeted me in a similar, discourteous manner. I don't understand why they would hire staff that cant pretend to be cordial to paying customers. He then proceeded to charge me a rider fee for my wife that cost more than half the amount of the round, mind you I teed off after 4pm as a single on a completely open golf course. I will not be going back solely off my interactions with these unpleasant pro shop employees. I'm hoping this is seen by management and addressed as it is unacceptable, been golfing 25+ years and haven't run into this.

Great course, real test.

This is a great course, with a fantastic layout.

A great test of golf.

As with all courses in Phoenix in the summer….. when it is the hottest you see the Bev cart the least. On hot humid days filling up at the turn is almost dangerous, hydration wise.

Course with Outstanding Holes

Range wasn't open, not much explanation for it. Just said maintenance hadn't finished yet. Course was Good, guys in front of us decided they needed to play from blue tees.

Doubt if any of four broke 100. Kind of slow. Guys who cleaned clubs were Great! Overall a 4 star day.
