Robert Trent Jones Jr. designed Las Sendas Golf Club's course, opened in 1995 and among the toughest U.S. courses. Two Zagat surveys have ranked it among the top 50 U.S. golf courses.

Las Sendas Golf Club offers a desert course demanding top play as it takes golfers through the Usery Mountains, with a vista of Phoenix as the tradeoff for managing rough land close to 1,800 feet above the desert. Jones didn't create a course with whimsical decorations like railroad ties, and he didn't build targets. The golf course is for those who strategize, mapping the way from tee to green.

After a round at Las Sendas Golf Club, head to Las Sendas Grille, for the full bar, including wines from California, Australia and Europe, as well as four tap beers and domestic and imported bottles.

The sand traps are like concrete. Unplayable It ruins the entire round. When you bounce the club off the concrete you skull the shot.

Beautiful course and layout is challenging

The course was a beautiful desert layout with challenging holes. They have 60 boxes so you can choose your challenge. Of course was in great condition. Staff was very friendly. Had a hot deal so the value was there. Otherwise, a bit pricey. Only negative was that they did not have very much water to drink on the course.

Disappointed

We were visiting from out of town and were really looking forward to enjoying a round of golf together as a family. While the course itself was fine and we had an overall decent golf experience, our interaction with the booking staff left us disappointed.

We originally reserved a tee time for three, but had to reduce it to two when my son had a potential scheduling conflict. Once that conflict was resolved, he called to see if he could rejoin us. He was told the tee time was no longer available, which we understood and accepted, even though it was unfortunate.

However, when we arrived, we were paired with a single golfer. That was frustrating, as we would have gladly filled that spot with our son. In speaking with the single, he mentioned that his original tee time was 10 minutes later, but he had been moved up to join us because the course was holding times for employees to play.

We fully support the idea of staff getting the opportunity to enjoy the course. What was disappointing was being told the tee time was unavailable, only to later learn that it may not have been the full story. The lack of transparency felt discouraging and cost us a meaningful family experience. Unfortunately, because of this, we don’t plan to return.

Scenic Course perfect day to play golf

The staff was exceptional, helpful and accommodating, The course was in excellent condition. Very scenic and challenging. Small elevated greens not very receptive holding shots with some blind tee shots. Would be beneficial to play the course several times which would improve sight lines. Look forward to playing again.

Rewarding

The amply bunkered elevated greens reward great shots. Good shots and mediocre shots are punished. At least for a 20 handicap golfer like myself.

Amazing Experience!!!

Played 9 holes this morning with my brother while we were in town for the Desert Invitational. We took advantage of the 9-hole round that includes breakfast—hands down the best deal! The breakfast was incredible, and the staff was super friendly. Highly recommend!
