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
Tough course that is fun to play!
For this time of year the course was in great shape. The staff was friendly and helpful.
Will go again
Friendly staff. Course in great shape. Good value and will for sure go again. Nice views and great for skilled and beginners. Did not eat at lounge so cannot rate food.
Beautiful challenging course
The opening holes let you warm up. The challenge is the closing 6. Great views. Changes in elevation. You can't spray off the tee but it's fair. Very fun round.
Nice course
Good course for the money. Great views. Greens a little too hard. Ball wouldn't stick after shots. Cart girl had big cans so that was a bonus.
Sup
Great greens. Came up on a twosome of blue hairs that would not let us play through. So many people think once you pay your green fee you don't need to show any courtesy to other golfers. Took them 10 shots to reach the green on par 5 and they decided to okay the black tees. What a joke.
Wicked Six Rules
Awesome layout. Forgiving open fairways and challenging greens. Wicked Six is one of the most difficult finishing holes. Great experience.
breath taking
awesome day staff was extremely friendly , course and scenic views were unreal , when you play listen to the GPS review before each hole it will help lower your score, good tips to use certain clubs was a big help.
Will be back
Great golf day!
Sun Ridge is a great course which challenge any golfer strategy. It is not for all type of golfers, in my opinion you must need to know how to manage the course and your shots. The course is fun to play during the front nine where you go down the canyon. But in the back nine turn out to become a challenger since you play up the hill. This is where you will need your good game to sustain your good score from first nine. Excellent course, my wife and I been playing it for the last 10 years.
beautiful course,nice staff
The most difficult course I have ever played. Greens were in bad shape. I am not able to figure out why because the rest of the course was great.
Super interesting layout
May rates coming down, opportunity to play this great layout
Ok course to play
There are much better courses in the area especially based on the cost of Sun Ridge. Seemed like a course for the retirement groups.
Not all about the revenue, Its about service too.
Played Sunridge Canyon from a GolfNow Tee-Time. Pace of play was unacceptable considering the limited groups on the course. Took 8 holes to see the cart girl, only to be told she was done for the day.
Requested ranger to come out to speed up play, never even saw a ranger or member of staff, after leaving first hole. On the 17th tee, there were 5 groups waiting to tee off, which pretty much sums up the round.
Golf courses in AZ need to understand they have lots of competition and only a few summer dollars to go around. Will not be back to Sunridge Canyon.
Great layout
I love the layout! However, the greens were stressed and dry. At the same time, they were very slow. Much slower than any other course I have played in Arizona to date on this trip. I will play again because of the layout. Bunkers were course sand and not well cared for.
Nice track,very playable
Really liked the course and would return soon. Good combo of holes that make it a interesting round.
Fun course!
Fun course, third time I have played it. Always something new when I play. Wicked 6 lives up to its name!
Best find yet
This course is awesome. I will play this course every time I am back in Scottsdale.
Nice course
Nice course layout, and in good shape, but for the price paid I was expected to be in better conditions. Some of the greens were bumpy, and different speed in every other hole.
Other than that, beautiful mountain views.
Overall solid facility
The golf course was in good shape. I read previous reviews about the condition of the greens. The greens were a little thin but it didn't affect the playability in any way, they rolled true. Teed off at 10:15 and played in 4 hours exactly. Real test of golf with great views. Food afterwards was excellent as well.
WAY COOL
I'm blessed. I've played golf all over the United States and abroad. Sunridge Canyon is not for the finicky, wanna-be pro golfer - it will crush your dreams. This public golf course presented a real challenge and the conditions were fantastic; the overall experience was even better. The "wicked six" (appropriately named) are no joke. You better have your powder dry and your hammer cocked, otherwise, really bad things can happen to your scorecard. Losing golf balls became a reality - no worries - replaced each lost ball with a shot of Crown (the beverage girl visited often). The real pain started after the golf. The superintendent put us on the indoor/outdoor computerized golf swing machine. He videotaped our swings and measured our club head speed, angle at impact, ball flight, and distance (carry/roll). My swing felt like Rory McElroy and looked like Charles Barkley - oh well. The day ended next to a fire pit with live music. The food and drinks were priced right...we saw several javelinas and coyotes to boot. It's a desert wonderland - perfect for the guys and gals I run with.
Winter Escape to SRC
Sunridge Canyon has been a winter golf destination from the brutal Ohio winters the past 3 years. From the moment you arrive at SunRidge Canyon, you know you made a great golf choice - the Staff at SRC is professional, friendly and knowledgable and go out of their way to make sure you enjoy a great golf experience. The course is a Top 5 on my personal list - a great combination of a challenging, but fair lay-out and second to none when it comes to the views offered by the surrounding mountains around the canyon. Finally, no need to be in a hurry after your round, the SRC patio is an inviting spot to complete your SRC experience - great menu options with spectacular views.
