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.

Another great Troon course, best in Fountain Hills. Course was in good condition given the recent rains. Great practice facility to warm up your game. Layout pretty forgiving yet challenging enough. Worth the trip.

Good course but overpriced

Second time playing Eagle Mountain. Everyone was very nice...pro shop, bag drop, on course food & drink cart women. It's a nice course but not worth $300. I realize it's prime season in Phoenix/Scottsdale areas, but it's not worth $300. Practice area was pretty beat up. Lots of fairways were beat up and overwatered. Several of the tee boxes were beat up. The greens were all very nice!!!

4hr 15 min pace of play

Tee time was for 11:10am. Pace of play - 4hrs 15 mins. If you play early mornings the pace is typically faster. Average condition for this time of year (fairways average+ condition, dormant grass if you miss the fairway). Greens were in good condition. It is what it is.

Eagle Mtn. is in good shape

Greens and Fairways are in great shape.

I always grab a grilled hot dog or brat on the 10th tee!

Nice Course

This is a nice course that is normally priced too high for my budget. We got a fairly good price in early January which was still more than I like to pay to play golf. The course is very nice, and very playable for most skill levels. I would play here more often if it were more affordable.

Thank you for your comments. For future reference GolfNow pulls rates from our website so their rates are exactly the same as our website. In addition, if you paid booking fees your rate was actually higher than had you booked through our website.

Gorgeous course. Love how the fairways sometimes funnel your shots toward the green.Think you are close….. but challenging rough , well placed sand traps and fast undulating greens make you work for those pars!

Super sad it’s double the price, from pre-Covid.

Best course to start off your trip.

This course truly was beautiful especially at sunrise. The range and practice greens were wonderful. I’m like a 10 handicap golfer and I thought this was an absolute perfect course to really test myself but not be too difficult. Everything sloping to the fairways really helps if you’re not a talented tee box hitter and had surprisingly slower greens that were forgiving. Best course to start off a boys golf trip or just to see a beautiful course. Oh and the hot dogs were amazing. Staff was stellar and had plenty of water and bathrooms on the course. I’ll definitely be playing here again.

Awesome track, but prepping for overseed

First time playing the course and really enjoyed the challenging layout. The track is very creative and fun, but the conditions were a little rough in places as the course is being prepped for over seeding. This still exceeded my expectations for the day even if some fairway patches were dried out.

Beautiful Views with challenges everywhere.

I played with my son and absolutely believe this to be one of the best courses we have played. The fairways were great, greens were a tad slow but very consistent. We played SunRidge Canyon Golf Club the next day, and feel that Eagle Mountain Golf Club was definitely a better deal with better views.

Fun time

We loved the course layout and scenery. Fairways wide enough to allow for some slight mistakes. Challenging but not overly punitive. Other than the greens the conditions were awesome. Greens were really slow which was a disappointing at the price we paid.

Nice variations in layout & elevations

As an easterner playing this course, we were entertained and enjoyed the valley views! The course was entertaining and fairways were in nice shape as well as the Tee boxes.

Place of play was good but at times we ran up on the group ahead of us on Par 3's. I would certainly play it again but my experience with Desert golf is not extensive.
