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.

Busy season

So, we hit the start of the busy season which means it's pretty well monitored to insure the pace is consistent. No complaints about staff or facilities. The course ran about $114 and compared to other nicer courses in the area, that was a but high. Good target would be $85 to $95. Other than that fun course.

Course solid...Greens Awesome!

In my opinion, on of the most enjoyable courses in AZ. Greens were in great shape. Course closes tomorrow for 2 month shut down for improvements. So glad we caught it when we did. Price was right, and staff was awesome as usual. If you are visiting AZ this is a fantastic course to play to get a taste for an Arizona course. Views are a real treat on multiple holes. If your wondering if the price to play here is worth it, you won’t be dissapointed

Solid addition to our summer roster

Enjoyed playing here for the first time. Very challenging track, especially from the gold tees. Friendly staff from the cart guy who greeted us at the parking lot, front desk guy and starter/marshal. Only hiccup was the hidden fee of $6/water bottle (x2) that wasn’t disclosed up front. We found out about the fee when we checked our receipt after we started our round. That annoyance aside, overall a solid course that’s worth returning to for a revenge round.

Must play

This course is in great shape for this time of year. Soft greens that run true and very little burn anywhere on this course. Is it a little pricey, yes, but you definitely get what you pay for. SunRidge has it together for sure. Playing here again real soon.

Must play course in Scottsdale (Fountain Hills)

Such a great course and staff. I’ve played many of the “higher end” courses here in the valley and this one is up there with the best of them, but more affordable.

The staff was exceptional. The course was in great shape. The Wicked Six is just that, WICKED! And the greens were as true as they can be.

The course is extremely challenging! But fun. I played poorly for myself today, but the course was fair. This place is going in the rotation for sure.

Definitely recommend this course any time of the year. Go check it out!

extra charges

We booked a round for my wife and I on monthers day since it was mothers play free. We paid cash for our round and then went to the driving range. within 30 minutes on the practice range, it started to rain so we went in to get a refund but were told that we could only get a credit for the money we gave him. I had to book another round a week later but had to pay the full price thru golf now plus a water surcharge of $13.00 that no one told us about. The proshop gave us a lame excuse that all courses charge the water surcharge fees and offered no discounts. Nice course but like to rip off out of towners as much as they can. I won't be going back.

Amazing Course and Experience!

Sunridge Canyon is an amazing golf course in the Phoenix area. One of the most scenic courses you can play in the area! The course is in excellent conditions. Greens were perfect and the new bunker renovation just adds more to this already great golf course. Highly recommend checking out this gem!

Great veiws and great greens

Golf course was good. Conditions were good as well. BUT..... when we got home and looked at our bill the course had charge me $12.00 for two bottles of water that were in our cooler when we arrived. $12.00 for two bottles of water!!! No one mentioned that we were being charged Pro Shop never said a word about charge. I just paid $114.00 US to play your course and you have the nerve to charge you customers $6.00 for a bottle of water. Really guys don't nickel and dime your paying customers.

Excellent experience

Very first class experience. Beautiful course with great variation in holes. Very friendly staff - the ranger retrieved my wedge that I left on the practice tee and had it to me within one hole. Recommend the course to anyone visiting the valley.
