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 sequence of finishing holes
Nice desert course. Wide fairways but tricky greens as the grain effects pace significantly. Excellent value for the layout and condition.
Nice Course
The course was in great shape. Beautiful surroundings. Challenging course. My son and I were paired with a couple who lived in the community. They were assume to play with.
Need to address a few concerns
Like playing here but your bunkers are terrible. More rocks than sand. In some cases it’s hard pan. The practice facility was in terrible shape as in no grass on the driving range. Just being honest.
Played 11:28AM on 11/30/2024 at Golf Club of Estrella. 4.5 hour round. Greens rolled around 9. Deep bunkers surround greens on many holes. Fairways very green and healthy grass growth. New golf carts. Good driving range. Nice clubhouse. Clean Restrooms on course.
Great course with beautiful views
Overall enjoyable course - only slight recommendation is addressing the sand level in some of the traps.
Nicest staff on the course you will ever meet.
Great Shape, Bad Timing
The course is in great shape! Unfortunately, we got caught behind a five some in a competitive tournament resulting in a slow round. We were also told the beverage cart would be out, but we didn’t see it.
Fun course
Course was in great condition. Was cart path only still from rereading but pace of play was still really reasonable. Super friendly staff and just a lovely Desert course. Will
Not super difficult but very fun. Gladly play here again.
This is a true desert course.
The golf course met or exceeded expectations in all areas except pace of play. No on course marshal meant that one group caused the course to back up. Well over a 5 hour round. I would still definitely play this course again.
