Rating 72.2

SunRidge Canyon Golf Club provides adventure amid natural terrain over 7,002 yards of par-71 golf. The golf course was laid out by the golf course architect Keith Foster, who hid the golf course in the ridges and canyons of the foothills of the McDowell Mountains, one of the last untouched bastions of the Southwestern United States.

The SunRidge Canyon Golf Club's signature hole is the 17th, and it is unique, giving golfers the option of shooting a 209-yard, par 3 over a box canyon today and then going for a 152-yard par 3 from an elevated tee tomorrow. Foster discovered the elevated-tee opportunity during a tour of the golf course while it was being constructed and added the Canyon set of tees right then. The vistas he knew golfers would get were enough to convince Foster to set up the second set of tees.

After a round of golf at the SunRidge Canyon Golf Club, head back to the Ridge Room, which attracts visitors and locals for the great view and Southwestern cuisine.

Sunridge - Fast Greens

Greens were definitely fast and dormant. Layout is amazing, our group enjoyed the weather. The only downfall is the course is almost too hard for people so it does negatively impact pace of play. when somebody tells the ranger to bug off after being asked to increase pace " because he paid a lot of money to play so leave me alone"...its never a good result for the groups behind them

All Golf Is Good Until It’s Too Expensive

Our group has played this course before. It’s a demanding track with several opportunities to score and get in trouble at the same time. What has changed since our last time there (4 years ago) is the opinion of what this course believes is the value of their course relative to condition. This course is not worth the current price structure especially when compared to other courses in the same area. Having played nine rounds in seven days this course rates as the least likely for a return in coming trips.

Great layout, but

Great layout. Really good holes. Greens aren’t true. Not overseeded and they’re painted green. GPS in carts helps a lot.

Not in the winter

Fairways were in good shape but they don't overseed the rough or greens so you're putting on the dead summer bermuda that they spray paint blue in the winter. Will wait until summer to go back. Clubhouse & restaurant are excellent.

This course is a fantastic layout but is in such poor shape I will never play it again. The greens were like concrete and painted green! Absolutely no grass on them. It was like trying to putt on dirty linoleum. The fairways overseed was poor and not much grass and the rough was dead beyond recognition. Just a shame they won't put any money back in this course to keep it in shape. Used to be one of my favorites and in awesome shape. Totally mismanaged, I will never play there again.

Lightening Greens

Oh we had such a fun day. The greens were SO fast. My husband and I played the course a few times 20 years ago and loved it them. We brought our grown boys to play over Christmas holidays and they fell in love with it. I was nice to to see the course is still great. The staff was friendly. We stayed for dinner after our round and food was great and setting was relaxing.

Great setting

Sunridge canyon is an interesting course in a great setting. The views are phenomenal. The holes are varied, with different challenges on every one. Greens were lightning fast.

Greens were fast, difficult to being almost unfair. There were circular steel plates on all the greens - maybe permanent hole locations. Have never seen that anywhere. The group in front was slow and way behind - no Marshall.
