Designed by Scott Miller, this course is located in the southeastern foothills of the McDowell Mountains and is an innovative departure from the “target” style courses constructed in the desert in the recent past. Its layout takes advantage of a variety of land features: rolling hills, ridgelines, lush valley and washes, with a backdrop of prominent mountain outcroppings. In many instances, long extended views into untouched desert landscapes and area landmarks, such as Camelback Mountain, will be afforded. It is a strategic design, which asks the player to make choices relative to skill level.

Would return

Interesting holes with remarkable vistas. Friendly helpful staff, including starter who had a great sense of humor and was very welcoming. My wife and I were paired up randomly with a couple of locals who made our day. Great experience all around.

Great challenge & rewards

Eagle Mountain presents a well rounded layout for players of all skill levels. Keep the ball in front of you and it will be a great day of golf. The day I played the pin placements were brutal, tucked in corners & on edges that made a birdie feel that much better. A good test of golf on a course that is well maintained. Staff is 5 star

Desert retreat

I was pleasantly surprised how nice the set up was. Viewing from a distance, I thought it would be too challenging for me and my wife. The forward tees were set up perfectly for the higher handicaps. I played from the greens which were perfect for my 13 handicap. Some great views as it winds it’s way down and around the mountain community.

pros and cons

Course design and challenge most beautiful and excellent. Truly spectacular but, and there always is a but, cart path design pathetic. You would pull the cart up to almost every green and be faced with a steep downhill walk to the green only to be faced with an uphill battle back to your cart. This no doubt leads to slow play. A little thought put into the cart path design would go along way. If for any reason you miss a shot off the tee good look walking down to your ball. I found the course truly excellent but my wife not so much. This is a course for single digit handicappers.

Scenic course

We love playing at this course but pricey for twilight times. Pace was slow so we turned around and played front nine again. We were able to finish 17 holes before it got some what dark.

Great scenery and lots of amphitheater greens

Not every golf course is blessed with a perfect piece of land for the game. Credit Eagle Mountain's design and construction with navigating a severe piece of property in a way that does not relentlessly beat golfers up. Significant elevation changes can intimidate, but there is often more room than there appears, and many greens sit in big amphitheater-type bowls, such that a wayward approach will often bound down to safety. There are still plenty of forced carries and lost-ball potential, but that peril is balanced out by some stunning views over the Valley of the Sun. It's a great spot for a late-afternoon round because the sunsets from the clubhouse deck are tough to beat in inland golf.

Poor condition

Very poor conditions. Greens were slow and bumpy, fairways wet and inconsistent. Pro shop staff unfriendly. Better places to play in Phoenix for the price.

Great day at Eagle Mountain

It was a pleasure playing the course today. It was in great shape and the greens were running nicely. Pace of play moved along and the marshal was attentive to keep things going. The practice facility is very nice also. I would have like to ended the round with a drink and snack to the restaurant but they were closed by 4:30. I would definitely come back to play.

Nice course

Course was still growing back in after overseeding…pace of play was too slow…waited on every tee for the guys in front. I think they are jamming too many people in. Also let the 2pm t off ahead of us..and they were not good. Layout and scenery is 2nd to none.
