Golf Club of Estrella
About
Golf Club of Estrella is the very first golf course on a daily-fee basis to be designed by Jack Nicklaus II in Phoenix, where it makes its home in the master-planned community Estrella, and offers 18 holes of par-72 championship golf over 7,102 unique yards. The many tests of the golf course will impress every level of golfer - though a choice of tee sets ensures no one will get in over his or her head. Desert and wash spaces require golfers to vary their shots while they take in vistas from the fairways shaped to the contour of the land and framed in the Sierra Estrella Mountains.
A round of golf at the Golf Club Estrella kicks off on Morning Star, a par 4 that measures 359 yards from the black tees. If you stick to the black tees, you'll need to conserve your energy for The Arroyo, the 16th hole, a par 5 that measures 605 yards. After that, Evening Star, the 18th hole, will be a relative breeze, at par 4 and just 437 yards from the black teees.
Once the round of golf at the Golf Club of Estrella is over, head back to the Player's Grill Restaurant for American pub fare and Southwestern snacks.

Great layout - sand traps need a lot of work!
Beautiful course(with the exception of the towering power lines.) Great layout. Challenging, yet fair. To pick up their rating, I would invest in more sand. Our group found the traps a bit like hitting out of a parking lot!
Old favourite turned disappointing
We were over 1/2 hour delayed and the pace of play was very slow until the back nine. Sand traps are hard abut the fairways and greens are in great shape. It is a scenic course but the last few times we have been the pace of play just wrecks the enjoyment.
5 hour round
5 hour round ridiculous, way overbooked and nowhere worth the price. Never again, much better courses in the area
Slow Round
5 hour round on a Thursday afternoon sucks.2 groups waiting on each tee box and the back 9 took longer than the front. There was obviously a slow group ahead that the marshall didn't move along. The marshall stated they would typically have one monitoring the front and one monitoring the back when they had a full tee sheet but they didn't staff correctly for the day.
Painfully slow
Great track and layout. 4:40 for 16 holes too slow. Gotta manage the pace better
Better courses for the $$$
The course needs some TLC if they are going to charge those greens fees. The greens were very bumpy and the traps were filled with dirt and rocks.
Nice Layout
We booked this at the last minute. Due to the late tee time and pace of play we were only able to finish 15 holes. The layout is very nice. Challenging but not too difficult. I would rate this course higher if it were not for the terrible condition of the bunkers. The location is a 40 to 50 minute drive from the Phoenix area.
Can’t go wrong with Troon
Beautiful track off the beaten path on the hills. Was a lot of fun and 17,18 are beautiful overlook of the mountains.
Nice experience.
Very pretty course. Playing surfaces in great shape. Very friendly and helpful Staff.
