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.

Eagle Mountain Good Track

Played eagle mountain on day 2 of a 4 day trip in the east valley. The course was in good shape, not excellent, but good. Greens rolled smooth and fairways and tee boxes were in nice shape. Lots of elevation changes on this course with some amazing views. I would easily recommend this course a must play in the east valley.

Great Layout, Fun Course

I was told by a friend to cancel another tee-time and go play this course so I was excited to play it. You cannot control the weather and this was a windy and on the chilly side, even for this Minnesotan.

Overall, the course is in good shape. I was a bit disappointed that the rough was brown in color and not in the best shape. The fairways however, great shape and the greens were fast and challenging. Helps to know the course and luckily I was paired with someone who knows the course well and he helped give advice or this would have been even more challenging. A course yardage book would have been nice to have for distance control and advice.

The bunkers could use a bit more sand. They were well manicured, however the sand was hard and it was difficult to blast out of them.

Overall, the views were fantastic, staff was extremely friendly and would interact with you even on the course which was fun. Fairways were in good shape and rolled well. Tee shots are forgiving since many would angle back towards the fairway. The 2nd shot is what is difficult with many uneven lies.

One thing that I did not know of after practicing on the putting green before my round is that the practice green was extremely fast so when I was putting on hold 1 (for an eagle) and was above the hole, I tapped my putt thinking it was going to be extremely fast like the practice green. It did not match the speed. After that, the speed still fast and fair, just would have been nice to have the practice green and the course greens similar to same speed wise.

I was told to play this course by a friend and it did not disappoint. The views are amazing and overall, the course is in good shape. It was challenging and fun and I will play it again when back in the Phoenix area.

Awesome layout with a few small caveats

Definitely one of the best layouts in the whole Phoenix/Scottsdale area, great views on every hole, all are quite fun to play, fairways are wide and forgiving, and the staff is very welcoming.

Conditions on the course were good in general; the greens were still somewhat sandy from overseeding, making the putting experience just ok. Carts were only allowed in the rough, and cart-path only on several holes, which makes for a lot of walking.

The green fees however have increased over the years; it used to be quite a bang for your buck, but now it's in the range of the more expensive courses, so more in the occasional splurge category.

That being said, if you haven't played it yet, do yourself a favor and go!

Great course layout, great greens

Eagle Mountain offers a tough but fair course layout and a good test of golf for an amateur. Greens are grainy and large and undulating and are courses main defense. The only criticism I have is the patchiness of some of the fairways. Practice facilities are just okay as a good chipping area and trap shot area are missing. Staff is excellent, breakfast and lunch outstanding and beautiful views are available on every hole.

Crazy pin positions

Played Eagle Mountain for the first time in a few years yesterday. Generally thought the course was a little on the scruffy side with the greens in average shape. The biggest issue though was the pin placements. I counted 11 holes where the pins were less than 3 paces from the edges of greens making the round quite frustrating. The other 7 holes had pins on slopes or on the edge of a slope. Not sure why that was? Perhaps they are trying to protect the greens which were very average condition wise. It is an interesting layout with some great views and worth a visit but beware of th nasty pin placements, best advised to play to the centre of greens regardless!!
