About
The golf course at the Western Skies Golf Club has a traditional layout with many different challenges and beautiful views. Surrounded by picturesque mountains and valleys, the course offers a taste of the countryside, which is further enhanced by the many aged Mesquite and Pinon trees sprinkled throughout. It features tree-lined fairways with generous landing areas and tricky water hazards. Two notable holes are the 4th and 7th holes, both par 3s. Although it is a modest 186 yards, the 4th hole requires a carry over water to a heavily bunkered green. Western Skies Golf Club's 18th hole is a drivable par four with water along the right side, making this an exciting finishing hole.

Great Course (except for the wet bunkers!)
Great, forgiving course. Fun for all skill levels. They've always had nice dry, fluffy sand. This year, they've started watering all the bunkers every day! WHY? Peace.
I’ll be back soon
I was actually satisfied with the conditions. I’ll be back to play again soon. The value for the money was good. I teed off at 10:30 and was done and in my car leaving at 1:15. The staff was friendly and got me going. I was able to sneak out ahead of a foursome. The golf shop staff was nice to let me just go ahead of time so I didn’t get stuck behind groups. I saw the cart girl 2x per 9 which was perfect.
Great Course, Great People!
Great course! (Except for the soggy sand traps) They used to have nice, fluffy dry sand in the bunkers. Now every single one of them is wet! I don't know what happened this year. Enjoy this fun course, but don't get in those muddy bunkers! Vote Blue!
Great Course. You'll Love it!
I don't know how they keep this great course in such fantastic shape year round! It's a fun and forgiving course, great for all skill levels, and the people there are fantastic! R. R.
Excellent Course for Everyone!
Western Skies is an excellent course for any skill level. The fairways and greens are large and forgiving, and always in perfect shape. You'll enjoy playing there. Five Stars! Rich R.
Friendly Course, Friendly Staff!
You'll enjoy Western Skies Golf Club. Wide flat fairways, big flat greens, and short, straight par fours make this a forgiving course that's great for all levels. And the staff always treat me like family! Enjoy. R. R.
Great Course, Fantastic Staff!
I play Western Skies Golf Club approx 75 times per year. It's always in great shape, (somehow), and It's easy to score there. The people there are especially nice! (Even to me!) You'll like it there. Five stars!
Overpriced
They are gouging you for beverages. $7 for a single 12 ounce can of domestic beer from the cart girl. Ridiculous!
Amazing shape amidst summer heat!
I have played numerous courses in the east valley of Phoenix and Western Skies has been in the best shape of them all. Playing on a weekday is substantially more relaxing and enjoyable due to less people, pace of play was great. I was a single and had virtually nobody behind nor in front.
Greens were optimal during season, good speed and soft enough to spin the ball backwards. Fairways were hit and miss as some holes had bald spots, but again summer months can be difficult upkeep, but overall in good shape.
Fast Play, Forgiving Course, Great People!
I played on Wednesday in 2 hours and 35 minutes. This is a great course, always in great shape, and the people that work there are super nice! Five Stars!

Fun Course, Fun Staff
You'll love Western Skies. That is, if you like playing fast, on great grass, wide fairways, big flat greens, and excellent service! Five stars!
Welcome Back
Its been at least 5 years since I played the course and the other reviews did not lie. The investments in money and greens staff have paid off beautifully. Even with the overwatering the course drained well and was very playable. Greens were a little slow, but again that's summer golf in AZ. The staff was very friendly and pace of play was 3.5 hours at 6:50am.
I will definitely put this back in my rotation
Great Course, Great Staff!
I love Western Skies, and you will too. The staff there always treat me like a king! Five Stars! Enjoy!
Forgiving Course, Nice Staff.
I love Western Skies Golf Course. I think you will too. Wide fairways, big flat greens, not too many bunkers, and onboard GPS make this course pretty easy. And the people there are always super friendly! Five Stars!
