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.

What Could Have Been

This course has the potential to be wonderful but when you get seven (7) groups waiting on three (3) holes and the marshal/pro did nothing to solve the situation there can be no fun or positive words for the round. This was a weekday at 10 am start and made everyone leave with a bad taste in their mouth.

Always Great

Beautiful course, well designed. Priced fairly. Those who are above 10 handicap shouldn't even think about trying anything further back than the white tees. Don't let the yardage fool you/ this course is difficult and greens unforgiving. That said, it's a wonderful change from the dozens (thousands?) of courses that are mostly flat. A must play if in the Scottsdale area. But only if you're in good condition, even with carts. Drink lots of water!!

FAIRWAYS STRUGGLING

They are working hard to fix their salty water problem which led to some fairway issues. A little time and proper watering will help get the course in it's usual pristine condition.

Horrendous condition

Course is in terrible condition. Many fairways under repair and new turf curling up and brown. Lots of better conditioned courses at far less money in Scottsdale

Believe the reviews course is in terrible shape

I play here every time I come out to AZ. Such a disappointment to see this course in such terrible condition. I wouldn't play it again. Only so many days in a week of vacation and this course was a waste of money and time. I should of believed the reviews.

No longer a premium course

Positive: staff friendly and attentive.

Negative: fairways exceptionally poor condition. This should be disclosed to individuals
making tee times as ownership is advertising the course as a premium golf course.
Definitely not worth the cost due to the present course conditions.

A fun but challenging course

Course is excellent with friendly staff. A lot of areas in fairways were under repair, which I think is typical for most courses this year. Tees and greens are excellent. Would recommend to 18 or lower handicaps.

Great course

My wife & I played this course with a great couple from Canada, course was awesome only 2 holes were getting fairways worked on so don't let that discourage you from playing. Golfed 3 other courses this by far was our favorite. Can't wait to play it again.

Snowbird final round

Love this course. Mountain views and elevation changes are awesome. Tough approaches and firm greens make the short game especially challenging.

Over priced

Beautiful views of the area, but the course is in poor condition. There are many bare spots and areas under repair. I do not recommend until they repair all fairways. It was over-priced for the course conditions.

Thing of Beauty!

Very challenging course, especially with the distraction of the outstanding views. A lot of terrain, full of wonderful landscapes. Best course I have played in the area (compared to 5 others).

Under repair

When we teed off, the starter warned us that 2 of the holes had fairways that were under repair. Once out on the course I discovered that most of the fairways had some patchwork of repairs.

As Advertised

Large # of fairway sod replacement areas- bodes well for long term health. Nonetheless, a pleasure to play and stay for buffet dinner.

not in good shape

The course fairways were not in good shape..certainly not worth 150.00; good views, we played the Phoenician for 50.00 less and it was in GREAT shape and fun to play.

The layout of the course is stunning!

A great playable course with subtle terrain changes. I played with some repairs taking place on several fairways but it did not detract from a very enjoyable and beautiful course. Greens were in great shape and rolling true.
