SunRidge Canyon Golf Club
About
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.

Beautiful hole! Photo submitted by danthomson on 09/25/2012
Great
We had a great game, the course was in great shape finished the round in 4 hrs. Definetly would play again!
so close
I found the course to be a challenge and leaving up to all the recommendations I had heard before booking the course.
Unfortunately the course had a pro am the morning I was there so all of the afternoon tee times were backed up.
I was disappointed when I had to quit after 9 holes, as I heard great things about the back 9
Over valued
As i walked away from the counter after watchimg my visa get whacked for $150 i thought i was going to be in for a treat of a golf course. But unfortunately i was very underwhelmed by SunRidge. Maybe we caught them on a bad day, i dont know, but the greens were average at best, not very fast and not very smooth. The layout was enjoyable and of course the weather was perfect, but at $150 i was expecting to be blown away and I really wasnt. I would rather drive 20 mins out of town and play verde river for under 125 then pay $150 at sunridge.
Great Value!
Third of three played during WMPO weekend. Course is set in the canyon. Stunning views. The Wicked 6 are exactly that, WICKED! Make sure to have your camera with you, especially on 16 and 18. Greens were a bit inconsistent, but still playable. Correct shop placement will payoff. Listen to the flyover previews on the GPS.
5 some no Bueno
For some reason they allowed a 5 some to play in front of us. I found this very surprising and disappointing .
It was a very busy day so to allow this was poor management
Outstanding course
Great layout. The wicked 6 to finish up are all difficult holes. Greens were in great condition.
Need combo tee’s
Yardage jumps from 4998 to 6004. Need combo tee’s between green and white to make course a lot more playable. I am a 7 handicap and it is no fub playing the short tee’s and the white tee’s are no fun playing off the last six tee’s which is all uphill.The course was not in the condition it normally is from other times I have played. I use to love this course . Not sure what is happening. The staff was good . Please fix it and put combo tee’s in so I can bring my friends and groups back.
Ps .. loved the fast greens. .Better shape then I have ever seen them. Thx
Do not cater well to low handicap women
While I like the layout of the course, if you are a medium to low handicap woman, I would really steer clear of this course due to not having a combo rating between their forward and middle tees. You will have to choose between 6,000 and 5,000 yards. Most courses will provide you with something in between, typically in the 5,600 range. I am a single digit but the 6,000 plays much too long and the 5,000 too short, forcing me to lay off of the driver on several of the par-4's. The course was in 'ok' condition as I've seen it much better but it was a nice day. Until they develop a combo between the 6 and 5000, I will not be returning here.
Tough Course
A very challenging layout! Will have to play again.
Not up to snuff
I've played about 20 courses in the past 30 days and this course was by far in the worst condition. Everyone is coming off of over-seeding and every course I've played that is in the same price range was by far in better shape. The management of this course needs to go to any of the other courses and look around. SunRidge doesn't compare and I got what I thought was a very good price for my round as compared to the normal pricing. That only means that the management of this course is out of sync with their competition if they expect people to pay the normal price for a round of golf here, or they will have customers who would be even more disappointed. Once you play anywhere else you would not return to SunRidge as there is no comparison. It was a disappointing experience for sure.
Golf course aside, all of the staff I came across were very good at their job.
Great day of golf
We had a great day. Golf course was really nice, interesting layout all through the canyon. Tough golf course but loved the challenge. Would definitely play it again.
Great round with great friends
Played the course for the first time with friends from out of town and it was real nice. Nice course, great condition, amazing views!
Getting close to perfect condition. Go. Play
Other than a little fuzziness on the greens the course is in almost perfect condition. Pace is a little slow on the back nine because of the difficulty and returning residents that don't have their game is shape yet. A beautiful course winding through the canyons that will test anyone's skill level. Expect to lose a few balls in the desert and pay attention on the finishing holes as the wind and elevation change will take 1-2 clubs more.
