Ocotillo Golf Club - White/Gold

Subjectively I believe this course has more water on it than any other course in the state. My first time playing I had 7 penalty shots and still shot an 86. Had I played more conservatively it may have been lower. I would recommend this course to people who love a great track and want a challenge. For those beginners out there, take a lot of extra balls and have fun, it's a beautiful course.

Course will challenge you with accuracy , however plenty of holes that are less challenging to make it fun. Always in great shape. Great views of lakes and fowls. They have eliminated some of the extra birds , so less poop on and around greens. michelsons management group has taken it over. No more free driving range balls

Lots of water but if your in the fairway no problem. conditions great!

Bit of a mixed review as I do enjoy the course and the staff however be prepared for a slower than average pace. Staff are friendly and helpful but this is offset by the pace of play. I do enjoy the course but am not certain i would play again unless I was one of the first t times off in the morning ensuring I wouldn't have to contend with the pace of play.

Service personnel all on ear pieces, didn't acknowledge my presence as they were more connected to golf shop. Had to wait when I came with my bag and no one else around. Otherwise everything was great.

Course was in great shape. Fairways were lush, greens rolled true. Course is scoreable, but you can get in trouble fast with hazards and tiered greens

Course was very challenging fairways and greens in good shape.

Seemed like water on every hole

Sand traps could’ve used more sand but might have just been wet from morning sprinkling. Tee time was 6:45 am. Will play again!

Enjoyed my round. played with 3 people who knew the layout of the course very well. That was a big help, having someone guide. Course was in excellent shape. We were scheduled to play the gold course, but they opened up the blue course which is good, because it was starting to back up. will definitely go back again.

Don't let the water you see in pictures scare you. The water doesn't come into play all that much and it is a fairly easy course with a pretty simple layout.

Course was in pretty good condition when we played. Fairways and greens were in good shape. However, some of the tees were pretty rough and the bunkers were in bad shape. The bunkers I found had little sand what were full of rocks.

Great place to play lots if water hazards bring extra balls.

Nice layout, fairways and greens were in very good shape. Time of play was too long (Friday, Apr 27, 2018)

The course was in good condition. I played with a member which was a real benefit as he provided me with some good course tips. There were 150 yard markers but it would also have been nice to have additional yardage markers. I had lunch in the restaurant and the food was good.

Very high quality golf facility. Course is in great shape,greens fairways are lush and perfect. Tap room, staff and starter are all fantastic representatives of the course. This course is not a desert course, lots of water here. Lots of memorable hole. 1, 10 and 18 are fun holes

I found this to be an excellent value course in the greater Phoenix area. There is lots of variety in the three nines available and all were in excellent shape the day we played. Warming up, there is an extensive practice area, with the practice greens mirroring the pace and texture of the course greens, which isn’t always the case. We’ll be back for sure

Great track, excellent service and amenities, everything you could ask for and more.

Had to wait for a cart for our 12:25 tee time.

The staff was pleasant but confused about how to handle the crush of players. Heard they booked 360 rounds that day from an employee!!!

5 plus hours for our round, never saw a marshal except at the start. He was good.

played here twice before. Never this over booked.

We’ve played this course many times when we travel down for some sunshine and love it. Great staff and amenities. I was a little disappointed in some of the course conditions however. I don’t recall muddy and dead areas. Still had a great time with a fun couple we met.

I had not played this course in about 10 years and all I could remember was water. This time, all the water was still there but really you should be able to play around it. I am a 17 handicap and only lost 2 balls, one of those in the water fall on Blue #9, the other up in a tree (it never came down). Sadly the wind caused some issues at 22mph gusting to 40+ mph, we probably should have rescheduled to get the best experience but we didn’t.

All staff were great from check in to cart ladies but the starter was especially welcoming and helpful. I especially liked his comment “we have 27 holes at Ocotillo and 24 have water opportunities”, opportunities, that’s a classic. We paid $55 and for sure a good value with the course in very good condition vs many that are very dry in the valley following a long drought but I guess they do have lots of access to water at Ocotillo!
