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
This is a very nice course.....
...for good golfers! Very demanding...lots of hills...greens were a bit hard but putted nicely.
Beautiful views on most holes of the Ft. Hills scenery.
Good value, tough course
Good value, challenging track that does get hot in the dead of summer because there are not many easy holes out here and not too much shade. Still one of my favorites in the valley though and you can't beat it for under 50 bucks.
Sunridge Canyon Review
Disappointed that the greens were hard and not cut that morning. This made putting difficult as the greens were very slow. Otherwise loved the setting and vistas. If greens were in better shape, it would have been 5 star.
Great Course
The course is in good condition. Greens seem a little slower than putting green. Many difficult holes but very fair. 18 plus handicapers need to tee it forward (white tee) to enjoy the day.
A True Desert Oasis
It has beautiful elevated tee boxes which amounts for a very tough golf course as there is "The Wicked 6", which is what the final 6 holes are known for.
Sun ridge
Exellent design. Great people. Fast greens. Good bunkers
Very good course for the cost
Enjoyed playing this course and will definitely play it again in the future
Great layout
Loved the course but course knowledge needed on first time playing. Lots of elevation changes. Very enjoyable round.
Challenging, yet fun
SunRidge was interesting and challenging. The course has some dumb holes (short par 4's where you're teeing off with hybrids or long irons), but the Wicked 6 makes up for it in the end. Playing uphill and into the wind on the back 9 made for a good golf challenge. The course would probably be less fun for higher handicaps as many of the fairways slope towards bunkers and the desert, so sometimes good shots are rewarded with looking for your ball in the desert.
When we played the course was quite dry and there was hard pan in areas that there shouldn't have been, but the area had just seen a run of temperatures around 105, so everything was dry in fairness. The clubhouse is beautiful, the staff were polite and helpful, and it was worth playing. I would play again, but not often.
SunRidge has some great feature holes
The final 6 holes are quite the challenge. . but this course was fun to play and i look forward to playing again soon.
Tricky and Precise
This is definitely a course that must be played 2-3 times before getting serious about a score. There are way too many surprises even with the GPS system that need to be known to make this a fair test. The vista is great and the conditions nice but the uncertainty of what you must, need, or should do can only be a positive out-come if you play the course several times. The difficulty and the distance between green and next tee box makes the pace of play drag so expect a slow round.
Awesome Course
The course was tough and playing for first time even harder with not knowing lay up areas.
Very quiet on course which allowed us to enjoy the surroundings.
Greens fast and hard to stop ball on but fairways superb.
Excellent layout
Very challenging and scenic layout. The course has 5 sets of tees so anyone can play it. Very good practice facilities as well.
Awesome course winding through the canyon.
Loved the layout. The only negative I had was the putting green was lightening fast but the course greens where slower.
Spectacular golf course and very challenging.
First round
It is not a forgiving course, however it is in pretty good condition, the GPS system was excellent, I lost a few balls but had an enjoyable day, for the money it exceeded my expectations, greens were fast maybe a little hard.
Very challenging
I liked the course very much, but as a first time player I was unaware of lay up areas. Cart tutorial of each hole didn't kick in until the middle of the round.
Great Track!
We all thought the beginning of the course was tougher than the Wicked 6. I would play here again. The food at the Wicked 6 Grill was fantastic. The staff was very friendly. We had a great time talking to Yvette and Kelly!
Fun course!
I loved the course. Challenging but not too hard for a female golfer with a average handicap. Had a fun group to play with on this date. First time to play and would come again.
Interesting day
Overall ok, but conditions of 1st cut and roughs were poor. I've played this course 5 or 6 times and this was the worst condition wise
HITTING THE FAIRWAYS A MUST!!!!!
Blind drives,elevated tees,very fast greens,this course has it all.Add strategically placed bunkers and multi contoured greens that are very hard to hold and you have a true test of golf.This course will definitely grind you especially the last six holes which they call the "wicked six" .I highly recommend this course if you can get it for a decent rate.
