Golf Club of Estrella

Love this course. Its always in tip top shape. Played 18 would have played 36. Layout is awesome. Tee boxes are always good. Fairways are extremely well maintained, same with the greens. Bunkers were in great shape, If anything the greens perhaps were extra fast although readable. Staff is terrific, Starters, Marshal's, Tim in the pro shop is great. The mountain setting is panoramic. There are zero downsides. Its a Troon course. Its what you should expect to play.

If I only could have had a replay. Ah, next time

Very disappointing… several times the washrooms have been closed by 5… no excuse for this… no warning either. When we were done the facility was closed PERIOD.

Great layout, but no sand in the bunkers just pretty much dirt and pebbles very disappointing for such a nice layout. And was told when asked about the bunkers from a member we were playing with he said the owner won’t put any money into the course. Time for a new owner somehow.

Greens in horrible shape!! Course has gone down a lot since last time i played last year. Weeds everywhere, carts run down, sand all over fairways from traps. I would not recommend this course if you have to pay more then $50

The washrooms were closed before 5 on hole 15. Once we got to the Clubhouse all facilities were also closed. Very disappointing considering this is a Troon course. Had voiced my concern about this a few games ago, unfortunately nothing has changed. It would be so easy to send someone around and first close the washroom after everyone is past the 15 hole. After all, we are paying for you to have your job…

Beautiful sprawling course in the Estrella mountains. Complimentary driving range with tee time, carts had club cleaners and came with tees and ice in coolers. Overall wonderful time would play again!

It's a great course. Layout is easy enough to figure out and play. Greens are in great shape and easy enough to read. Will definitely play again.

Excellent.

Unfortunately didn’t get to finish course due to slow play ahead of our group.

Greens rolled well, fairways in good shape, tee boxes in great shape. The only knock on this course would be the bunkers (hard pan). Good thing I grew up playing in west Texas because most of the courses here have hard pan bunkers!

Visually fun and challenging course—lots to look at, and beautiful views especially the last few holes. Variety of hole types. Not too much hidden, so while course knowledge is always helpful it can be enjoyable the first time (it was for us). Would have expected a little better conditions…some greens were in rough shape, and some bunkers were dirt as much as sand.

Like the course very much. Two items need attention: 1) the greens were very slow 2) sand was almost non existent in green side traps.

Overall course was in great shape only complaint was sand traps. Some were hard or lacked Sand I know rain my be some of the cause but proper maintenance is also needed.

I love playing this track, but was very disappointed in the bunkers and greens. The bunkers are obviously not maintained and are full of stones and rocks. The greens could use some work - about 5 greens had a large patch of sand where the grass had died and old holes were not replaced well. The layout is great and the fairways were in fantastic shape. I’ll continue to return to Estrella, but definitely think the $140 green fee is overpriced for the current condition of the golf course

I have been coming to the valley for 10 years and have looked forward to playing Estrella the greens are always smooth and fast and bunkers always a challenge. But this year was a disappointment. The fairways were excellent condition, the greens a little bumpy but still ok however I was in 3 bunkers and everyone had almost no sand in the bottom. Got a deal to play but with bunkers in this shape not worth the price unless it’s a great deal. The prices have doubled thru covid and conditions deteriorated not good.

The bunkers and green are in rough condition, but the fairways are in good shape. Approx 5 greens had a large patch of sand on them and the bunkers are full of stones and are not well kept. Certainly not worth the $140 we paid to play here. I like this course, but I’d much rather spend my money elsewhere unless they make a better effort in taking care of the course.
