About
The Gold Course is one of three 18-hole courses offered at the Wigwam Resort, which was named one of Golf Magazine's "Silver Medal Resorts." Golf Digest cited the Gold Course as one of the best public courses in the state. Mature trees are present on all of the courses, as well as winding creeks that create water hazards, which come into play on several holes. There are also strategically placed sand bunkers present on the course. The rolling landscape of the course causes elevation changes that can affect shots. The Wigwam Resort facility also has a putting green and chipping area.

Golfer Reviews
Pathetic
The slowest pace of play I’ve ever seen. I am 27 years old and have played the game for 20 years. It was embarrassing to play such a poorly managed 6 hour round. This course is better than the staff allows it to be. Get better
Pathetic
5 hour round for a 3 some, 2 or 3 groups backed up on every tee box. Absolute joke
Course conditions
I like playing the gold course because of its layout. The course has been in much better condition than yesterday. The rough was especially in poor condition.
Long but Fair
Was beautiful and long open fairways with reasonable water.
Good course, slow play
Overall the course was in good shape and looked the layout. Good amenities. Play was very slow, 30 min. behind and forced sharing of carts which I get but most courses let a single ride alone which helps pace of play so just a preference when I select a course. Plus you might get paired with a major chain smoker and very slooow cart driver, or worse.
Wigwam Gold - 5/30/2023
Really nice course in good shape. A few bald patches on some fairways, but to be expected in Phoenix, and really not that bad. Otherwise, from tee to green, it was a delight to play essentially a parkland course in the desert.
Had a group of 4 ahead of us who were a little slow. Bear in mind I was playing with an 80+ year old vet, to give an indication of how slow the group were. We still finished in less than 4 hours, which some would argue is reasonable, but we still had to wait on virtually every tee.
Pro Shop is not well signposted, and is unfortunately hidden away but once you get through to the main area, everything is clearly laid out and marked.
Wigwam Gold course
I was kind of surprised to see the condition of the fairways on the gold course. They need a little work. Maybe they are transitioning to their summer grass. The day before we played Pebblebrook and theirs were in excellent shape.
The greens on the gold course were in fantastic shape. Lots of undulations and speed was very good. The tee boxes were also in good shape.
