Ocotillo Golf Club - White/Gold
Rating Snapshot
About
If you come to Arizona to play desert golf, forget about Ocotillo. Ocotillo is a refreshing change of pace from most of the Valley's courses precisely because it isn't surrounded by desert.
The White Course is the most unique of the three. It has only one par 5, and the water is a factor on just five of the holes. But it also has the best hole on the property -- the 479-yard, par-4 ninth, which used to be an easy par 5 but is now a treacherous finishing touch.
The Gold nine is a devilish test and not just because water comes into play on six of the holes. The greens have a lot of slope in them and are difficult to read. And some pin placements are brutal; hit a downhill putt two feet past the
hole, and it might roll down into a swale and 30 feet by. Uphill putts, on the other hand, are extremely difficult to get to the hole, if for no other reason than Ocotillo's greens aren't as fast as some of the Valley's marquee desert courses.

Great golf venue
Beautiful course, peaceful setting, challenging holes, great value.
Really nice course
It’s a course you need to play more once to figure out the course layout. Lots of water. But once you know where it’s at you can play for it. Staff was friendly and pace play......did play early....was good. Would recommend this course.
Nice and Green
Course was very nice. Fairways were a little skinny in places but the greens were in good shape and the course has a very nice layout. Some greens have a good amount of slope in them. Will come back for sure.
Will try again
Beautiful course. Would like to have had a hard copy of a yardage book (The course does have an app.), but I'm not savvy enough for that. I know I will be back.
Awesome
The reviews said the course was terrible but was quite the opposite, the course was excellent.
Disappointed
Should be advised if greens had been sanded. Very disappointed. This course has gone way down with new owners.
Starter very mean & incompetent
Golf course nice. The starter, Frank was not nice, very grumpy, and mean!
Great day!
Quick play(4.25 hrs) great challenging coarse, fun day!
Good time
Tee boxes need some attention. Some greens were stressed in spots.
