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.

Tough, Challenging Golf

Peak season in Arizona. Course was not cheap, but it was in great condition, facility is nice, and their people were great. We played in 4:10, which is a good pace for a premium course in peak season. Greens were in great shape and rolling well, probably at least a 12. Front 9 is generally down hill and with the wind. Back nine is generally uphill and into the prevailing winds. The last 6 holes are very appropriately named “The Wicked Six”. Beware!

First time

Starter- Pete was a little gruff. Billed us for 5 green fees for 4 golfers, was an experience to get refunded for one. Staff in pro shop was not very accommodating with issue they created.

I played a month ago greens rolled alot better for them making $1000 every 7 mi. You would think they would have grass that rolled true on there greens. Real shame they rip folks off. Nice course but greens are garbage

Scenice, but very difficult

A very difficult course in the best of conditions, I'm sure. Even more difficult with the damaged greens, ratty fairways and watered sand traps. That explains the heavy hot deal discount.Typical Arizona golf play where slow-plying 4-somes won't even consider letting 1-somes or 2-somes play thru.

Garbage

Were told course eas in mid season form. Fairways were rough and there were 2 greens with huge patches of Fairway grass. Pace of play was very slow as they let a 5some out in front of us.

When we asked if the 5some was legit they said their pace of play guidelines were maintained, and that was it.

Will NEVER return to this overrated course.
