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.

Golfer Reviews
Hidden gem
I've played several courses across the Phx metro and TPC Scottsdale withstanding, this is the best course hands down.. To be July in west valley and the course is that green???
Easy track if you take the ego out and play tees that FIT your handicap. Otherwise, bring a few boxes of balls and a snake stick.
Conditions
I love the layout of this course. The heat has taken its toll on some areas. Greens are still good. Fairways in most places are OK.
I think it is a really good value for this time of year.
Great Value, Really Fun Course
Ive played this course twice now this summer. I really enjoy it, and I think it's a great value. Super friendly staff, (shout out to Steve the starting ranger with the great tips!), nice carts with good tech, challenging layout, range balls included for getting warmed up. It is a bit dry and the bunkers can be a bit hard, but it is 100+ degrees out... Me and a partner got through 18 in just over 3 hours on a Friday. Two weeks ago on a Saturday it took closer to 4 hours. Would love to see a mister station for cooling off on the course during the summer.
Already late summer conditions; Nice views was a plus
Already late summer conditions. Usually Troon properties are in good condition duration through mid-July. Did find out this property was sold by Troon so they have new owners and that may be the issue. The group we played with said the course was in great shape just last month so it went down hill fast. The fringe around all the greens were punched and too much sand was laid on top so there were small rocks all over the greens. Glad we only paid $30 per person instead of the $59 they were asking for the tee time right before our tee time. Bunkers were I terrible shape also. Huge rocks throughout the bunkers.
Golf Club of Estrella
Most fairways at Golf Club if Estrella were in distress. I have been playing this course since 2007, and have probably played it over 80 times.
This is the worst shape that the fairways have ever been in. Most of the fairways are more dirt than grass.
I do not recommend that anyone play this course.

Great course, but what's wrong with the turf?
Something horribly has done wrong with the turf in a normally excellent course. We experienced significant areas of dead or no grass in almost every fairway. Many areas around the greens were likewise baked mud. Intervention is needed to get this course back on track!
Beginner golfer
I have only been playing golf for eight months, the best course so far. Very green, nicely manicured, easy to putt, and the carts has technology I have not seen before. Overall I had a great time I will return.
Great Value
Course was in really good form. Greens were on point. Played in the AM so beat the heat, for the most part. This course is always a great time. Has some beautiful views. The summer rate makes playing Estrella a steal!
