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.

Horrible course conditions for 200.00. Absolute garbage.

Management should be embarrassed to charge 200.00 for based on the condition of this course. I’m highly aware that it was a rough - reseed season. This golf course looked about as good as shape it would be in the middle of summer.

Slow play, just o.k. conditions

We played with another couple from the area and all felt that the course was not top condition. In addition, we had to wait for some time every hole, especially on the back nine. When we mentioned this to staff, they said that the back 9 can back up. Well, then, you are overbooking it. It was not a great experience, despite some nice vistas and hole chllaneges.

Thank you for the review. We have tried GPS in the past but the cell phone signal is very weak on the back nine due to the mountain and just doesn't work well.

Hot Sunday

Overall fantastic experience. Staff was very nice, but the starter was excellent…took time to talk with us and give us some course insight.

Course well maintained and in excellent shape for this time of year. . Pace of play good, which brings me to my complaint,

Group behind us were very impatient…we waited on pretty much every hole for group ahead of us to clear, yet the group behind us were pushing us…where we going to go? Can’t push the group ahead of us as I believe they were waiting on group ahead of them.

Crazy that people are in that much of a hurry to golf…finished in 4:10, which I thought was good as course was very full. I’d definitely play again if given the chance.

This comment is for the director of golf John

whom answered the phone this am.

Sorry to be a bother when calling to check availability for a foursome next Sunday and then inquiring on the rates ? Definitely out of line and I obviously wasted of your time .

If there is another way to communicate that doesn’t end with a click of the phone please let me I’ll try to do that next time . Thanks

Great Track

This course winds thru a beautiful community of very expensive homes. That adds to the scenery that you shouldn't be paying attention to.

You must be in decent shape to deal with the slopes and high terrain.

The course is a lot more fun when the weather isn't so hot.

Beautiful & Challenging

So this course is amazing and the views of true valley incredible. Very challenging, a variety of shots needed, uphill, downhill, side hill. Course is in great shape. Even the greens which were aerated were better than expected. Slightly long but rolled a little slower than normal, but good given this time of year. No GPS in cart. Cat the cart lady is over the top great. Round was 3 to 3 1/2 hours.
