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.

Still very good, just not great

Course not in as good shape as prior years. Thinner fairways and greens. Pace of play was good. Beverage cart was scarce. For a Mickelson property it should have been in excellent condition. Having to buy range balls was disappointing.

Good course marshals ruin jt

Super nice course and fun to play. Good condition for the price. However the marshals just ruin the play there. If You want to be constantly watched and rudely told to speed up when you can’t play any faster cause there is a group in front of you then you’ll love this course. We had a marshal 4 separate times come to us and say we need to hurry up when no one was even behind us. They had the sprinkles following our tee time.

Overall nice course just won’t be going back. This is the second time it’s happened.

Course is in rough shape

I have played here many times. Usually it is in very good shape. I had not played here for roughly a year though. The poor course is in terrible shape. They definitely must have some over seeding issues going on. Not worth a $100 in this shape.

Course has so much play they can not keep up the conditions on the tee boxes or greens. It’s a shame as this layout could be fun.

Poor grass condition

We have played this course in the past and we’re impressed with green, lush fairways. When we played lately there were a lot of bare patches on fairways with divots everywhere. Also., the greens were sanded and we weren’t told of this prior to play which would have changed our minds to play.

Right now the course is not worth the price.

It does have beautiful scenery
