Rating 75.0

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.

Gold Service-Not

Upon arrival I was told there was a frost delay, no big deal. I inquired about the range and was told it was just over there? So I grabbed some clubs for my long trek to the range. Approximately 1/4 mile. While the walk did me fine everyone else seemed to be arriving in carts, where’s mine? Returned no to the starting area I was told the delay was short, 20 minutes or so. So off to the putting green I go. Approximately 35 minutes later I inquired about starting time. Was told to go and see the starter and when I arrived at the 1st tee Mr. Starter asked where have I been. In my opinion I was treated without care or respect of me being there to play a course I long believed was special. The course was outstanding, the playing partners were very nice but the overall service was lousy.

Long with long rough

Played the club tees and battled the course. Rough was long and between the two of us lost 3 balls that disappeared. Frustrating not sure if this is how they keep the course at all times but it was unforgiving. Greens were slow but practice green was fast.

Disappointed

Played the other 2 courses at Wigwam a few years ago. Heard all the hype about the renovations at the Gold & looked forward to playing there. The course was in very good shape...but it was boring! I didn’t have an uphill, downhill or sidehill lie all day. The course is an oldstyle, flat Muni. Def not worth more than $40-$50, especially when it’s cart path only as it was today. And especially with tons of quality tracks all over the Phoenix/Scottsdale area.

I’m sure there are plenty who like this style layout, but to me it was just plain vanilla.

Best course so far

This was absolutely one of the best courses I have played since I arrived.

It's expensive for non resident people so take your money with you.

You my find discount on some of the golf website...

Staff was friendly....
