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.

Worth playing

Lay of the land flat course defence is elevated greens surrounded with sand traps. I felt greens were a little more rounded than contoured with some difficult pin locations. Course in pretty good condition play was a little slow at times two in our group didn’t show up the same for group behind us and another two some behind that playing behind foursomes. We eventually asked two behind to join helped. Nothing spectacular but solid course. Is as reasonably priced as you can expect considering the price increases generally in phoenix area. I do not know costs associated to maintain courses in the valley but the huge increases are a lite bit too much.

Ready for the tour

A Canadian Tour event was upcoming for the Gold course so conditions were very good but tough. Rough was starting to get longer and greens were firm and fast. That probably helped slow play down a little bit as it took more time to play some difficult shots.

Good track

Nice course. Conditions were very solid. Greens were rock hard but that’s due to a q school qualifier coming up. Totally understand the conditions. It was tough. But we knew it going in. Very good track

Perfect Day for Golf

We played the Gold course on a perfect day and had a blast. The "gold" tee boxes were a little beaten up, but overall the course is in great condition, especially the greens. Tough greens on the Gold course, but very enjoyable course. Pretty flat, but had mature trees and a little water that keep things interesting.

Good shape but expensive

Course was in good shape. It was tough to hold greens and pin placements were brutal. Wigwam, just like everywhere else in the Valley, is a little overpriced for what you get.

Ok course

The golf course has very little elevation other than elevated greens that are a bit rounded. But well bunkered

Course is in fairly good condition nobody repairing ball divots but greens seemed to putt fairly well. If you can get a deal is good value.

Good day

Course basically flat greens elevated and a bit concaved balls from shorter clubs hold but longer irons tend to roll a ways. The greens are where the strokes can add up. It’s an ok golf track and was a reasonably priced. Based on what the costs are now in phoenix. Played the Gold course which I understand is the most difficult of 3. - 18’s

Go play it

Beautiful and tough

Course was in outstanding condition preparing for the Canadian Tour qualifier and was correspondingly tough. Greens were firm and fast. Rough was up a bit and tees, fairways and greens were in great condition.

Greens

Mounded greens were much too firm. Good approach shots wouldn’t hold and stimp was too high for recreational course.
