Ocotillo Golf Club - Blue/White
About
Ocotillo is a one-of-a-kind golf spot in a state full of top golf spots, and the four-star golf course is suitable for both golf upstarts and old-timers.
Ocotillo's Blue Course is a watery grave; water comes into play on eight of the nine holes. It's not overly long but there's so much water the length becomes irrelevant. The best hole may be No. 1, a 590-yard par 5. Big hitters are faced with the classic risk-reward: Do they lay-up on their second shot or try to fly a tributary that splits the fairway about 50 yards short of the green?
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.

Don’t Play Here Solo
They will make you share a cart with a random. So awkward! Rude staff and not worth the money. Pathetic!!
Thank you for your rating, and we hope to see you back again soon.

We apologize for missing the mark on your expectations.
Great round
We played a great round. The greens had a good feel. The fairway was great. The rough was thick. Great shot placement course.
Thank you for your feedback. We glad you enjoyed your round.
Overpriced for the course’s condition
The white course was in bad shape , blue course was in better shape though! Still overpriced for overall quality!
We're sorry we missed the mark on your visit. Our management team has emailed you for further questions on your experience.
Hi Miguel, thank you so much for the review. This time of year, the courses start to go through transition. The winter grass has died out and the Bermuda grass is coming out of dormancy. Have a wonderful day!
Terrible Pace
The pace of play was absolutely atrocious. The staff was unfriendly and there was no Ranger to enforce pace. After every shot we were waiting 15-20 minutes. We got the the turn and two foursomes were inserted in front of us. We waited 45 minutes to start the back nine. They are clearly trying to increase revenue without any consideration for the experience of the golfer. Will not be going back.
Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. Very sorry your experience wasn’t what you’d hoped. Your feedback has been relayed to our team.
Thanks for the stars! We try to provide our customers with the best service and experience, and we hope you’ll visit us again soon!

Ocotillo Review
My first time here…and I said the same phrase when I left as when I got there….why have I not played here before now??!! Will be coming back for sure.
Thank you for the review. We look forward to serving you again soon!
Oasis in the desert
Of the 4 courses I played in Arizona this spring, this may not have been my favorite but I still loved it...and it was the least expensive round!
We teed off at sunrise so we didn't have to worry about pace of play. The course has a surprising number of water hazards (some are blind, so check the card before teeing off), but the nearly excessive number of well-placed bunkers is what did my round in.
Despite not carding a nice score, I loved the course and would play it again if/when I return to Phoenix.
We are so happy to hear you had a good experience. Hope you have an amazing day!
Another good day
We were joined up with another 2 some, had a very enjoyable day, course was in very good condition
Thanks for the review. Hope to see you again soon!
spoiled from past prices seemed to have jumped up 20 30 dollars especially after 1 2pm
Thank you for the review. We have some special pricing after 1:30 that might help. See you next time!
