SunRidge Canyon Golf Club

suckered into playing Sunridge Canyon on Saturday and all I can say is it is still the worst or one of the worst courses in all of Arizona and maybe anywhere.

i would not wish on the worst golfer or even the worst person I know.

The course is in horrible shape tee to green; especially the greens. The greens are so beat up. There’s patches where they were repaired some places, other spots where repairs didn’t take or looks like they didn’t even try and it’s just packed and lumpy, inconsistent sand that no golfer would want to putt on.

The fairways are the best part. They’re actually pretty good. The grass from overseed mostly took well.

The rough is just inconsistent pretty much hole to hole. You can have one 2 inch area of rough -green or yellow grass-and then you can have 3 inch yellow stuff or just matted down yellow stuff and you never have a consistent lie to hit out of.

The bunkers are terrible. Some are full of rocks. Some are just muddy, dirty lumpy, sand, and just inconsistent to play out of. Rounded and beat up tee boxes. Erosion in many spots!

Then of course, not to mention it is still one of the worst designs with bad/dumb/gimmicky and penalizing holes. There is just nothing redeeming about the course.

To top it off, not one friendly staff at all! The starter was an angry old guy that made everyone feel unwelcome and uncomfortable!!

I would encourage anybody considering it for a visit/teip or even local to not even consider it as an option especially for the price that they’re asking they’ll be asking over 300 here pretty soon. It’s 200 within the next week and just not worth it. there’s so many better courses that you can spend your money and time and enjoy yourself!!

we had a group of 20 and not one single person had a positive thing to say about it and only negatives!

Greens are in bad shape and inconsistent. Not worth the $180

The course is in terrible condition. The greens are awful with endless dead patches and rolled as smooth as a shag carpet. The bunkers have no sand so have fun there. They should be ashamed of the course based on what they’re charging to play. Save your money and play elsewhere.

Extremely overpriced for the condition the course is in and lack of amenities. To say the course was in playable conditions is laughable, calling it horrible conditions would still be an understatement. Most tee boxes were similar to hitting out of the rough and all were less leveled than the unplayable greens. Several greens you couldn’t even putt on, they were in such poor condition that you had to just pick up your ball. Fairways looked like a Municipal course during reseeding. We were told there would be cart services at the turn and on the course; there was no one at the turn and didn’t have cart service until the start of hole 15. If it’s choosing this course or no golf, I’d say save your money and call it a range day.

One of the priciest in F Hills; could’ve gotten better in south Phoenix for $40.

I think it is an unfair golf course. You get a great shot and when you look for the ball it has ended up in the desert. Th hills favor going in the desert. Won t play it again.

Course layout was great. Tough and fun. Fairways were good. Greens are worse than my home course that's 40 to play. Was told day of that a temporary green on hole 3 when I called a week prior to verify conditions and that wasn't a part of it. Was told immaculate shape. For $90, this course right now is barely worth 50. Traveled 2 hours to play a 2 star course for 90? Pathetic.

One of the worst courses you can play in Arizona for the price. Fairways and greens are dead, they have track marks on the fair way from when they cut/seed the grass, and they will over charge you the whole way. This is a track you should only pay $20-$30 for in the summer, but they will happily charge you $80 for no reason. The #3 hole had a false green in the middle of the fairway that was 40 yards short of the pin, and they still charged normal prices. If you are looking for a good track in Fountain Hills, go to Eagle Mountain or We-Ko-Pa. They will charge you much more reasonable rates, and the course will actually be in playable conditions. Horrible course, wouldn’t recommend anyone to play here.

The course is undergoing quite a bit of maintenance. The greens were great, the fairways were pretty standard for summer in Arizona. Hole number 3 had a temporary green, I didn’t find out until my approach shot was way beyond the temp green. The course is worth playing at the summer price.

Beautiful property with a beautiful layout. Very challenging but fair. One of the best courses in the valley without a doubt. Bring your A game.

Course is way overpriced and not in good shape, won't be back

Greens not in good shape since recently punched and sanded. No. 3 green is temporary. Needs some time to come back.

Staff were very friendly. Kudos to the Lounge Manager. She was fantastic!

So many issues with this course, you should not play it.

The price of $182. I played Tonto Verde (country club course), 20 minutes away for $120 and in great condition. With this hefty price, I expect a lot from a course. It did not come close to delivering what the price suggested.

On the first tee, the starter had the longest spiel about the course and how important pace of play is. Pace of play was awful. Between hole 13-14, a ranger sitting there eating his chips and ignoring the back-up of players.

Numerous greens with bad sections. Holes 2, 3, 4, 9 & 13.

The fairways were not good either. Hard to tell where the rough/fairway line was. A mixture of numerous grasses and many burnt out areas.

The tee markers were not distinctive with their color scheme. Hard to determine what color each tee was. We never found the white tees on hole 4.

We had a difficult time finding the white tees on the par 3, 17th hole. A beautiful hole. However, a sign said the yardage is to the red flag from the white tees. What? Yes, a par 3 with 2 different flags. The forward tees play to the other colored flag. Such a beautiful hole, ruined my 2 flags on a green. Never seen this ever in my golfing career.

The only postive things about this course were the tee boxes and they had a nice set of par 3's. Do not waste your time playing this course.

fun not for high handicap golfers. unless you want to loose lots of balks

Course conditions ok but greens were slow. Out side service was bad. My wife tipped the guy and he ran a rag over putter and did not help her putting bags in car. He was busy going to next group to wipe down their putters and get his tip!
