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.

Great Course

First time playing the course. It was challenging, but it was a fair. The course was in great condition (December 20th). It is a fairly tight golf course with multiple blind shots. We will certainly play this course again when visiting the Greater Phoenix Area.

A definite ‘must play’ if you are visiting the area!

While this was my first time playing Las Sendas after a few holes I realized a certain familiarity….when I started my round I did not know I was playing a Robert Trent Jones, Jr course but I have played all of the RTJ Trail courses in Alabama among many others around the country and this is definitely a challenging RTJ course!

The round starts with a challenging (I believe #1 Handicap hole!) risk/reward dogleg over/around water that can definitely set the tone for your round. What a fun starting hole!

The bookend is the 18th, another outstanding hole and if you ran the gauntlet on the other 17 holes do not relax one bit on this hole…it can still be a round breaker so no celebrations until you walk off the 18th green on your way to the clubhouse!

In between, the course is varied and challenging as one would expect. There was a nice mix of needing to move the ball right to left and left to right on holes. Bunkering was, well just stay out of them which if you play RTJ courses you already know that! On that note, the only semi-negative thing that comes to mind is that in a couple of the bunkers the sand seemed very shallow and inconsistent but again not a big deal if you can just avoid the strategically placed monsters!

A really nice course, I’ll definitely be back!

Great Robert Trent Jones course

Of course the first hole is the number one index. Beautifully set up risk reward. I like this course a lot, but I haven't played it as much as I would like to. I think that's going to change. Just out of overseeding of course was in great shape based on the situation. Another month or two it should be spectacular.

Great Outing

A friend recommended that I should play this course - backing it with this comment “ I promise you that you will remember it forever!

It’s one of the 10 best courses in Arizona

Loved the layout, the challenge, its condition and the overall friendliness of the staff.

He was right, I will remember it forever!

I understand that it is owned by some of my fellow Canadians - well done!

Nice, but…

This is a beautiful course, well maintained with friendly staff and beautiful facilities. This was our second time playing Las Sendas and forgot how challenging it is (we are from out of state).

The desert is in play on practically every hole and course knowledge is needed to make the round more enjoyable. It didn’t take a terribly errant shot or the wrong club selection to be penalized as fairways and mounds seem to filter less than perfect shots toward the desert. And it was rocky and full of brush that made finding a ball difficult, if possible, and unplayable if found.

I also question why a course at this price point didn’t have carts equipped with GPS. Signage was also minimal with no tee signs or yardages. We even had to question where the 10th tee was at the turn.

I recognize this course has local members and none of my issues are probably their issues. But if you are not familiar with the course then my suggestion would be to play in a group with someone who has course knowledge. Or do they offer fore caddies??

Great course

Just coming out of overseeding, the course was in great shape. Greens rolled well, and the fairways were lush. Bunkers were in good shape. Robert Trent Jones always builds a tough course. Front nines tougher than the back nine. Enjoy

Terrible experience, wish we hadn’t gone. Pre paid on line, had to quit after a miserable 7 holes of rain and wind. No refund. Bummer. Loooks nice but didn’t get to appreciate it.
