Golden Hills Golf Club (formerly known as Arizona Golf Resort) is home to a golf school and a challenging 18-hole course. The golf course is known for its difficult and scenic par-3 holes. It is has a traditional layout that features large, subtly sloped greens that are guarded by bunkers. Stately cottonwood and eucalyptus trees line the generous fairways. Lakes form water hazards that come into play on five holes and there is also native rough throughout the course. With four sets of tee boxes, the course offers a suitable challenge for players of all skill levels. In addition to the course and the school, the Golden Hills Golf Club has a putting green and chipping area as well.

Greens are great!

Course is improving everyday! You can certainly tell they are moving in the right direction. Price is always one of the cheapest in the Valley. Give it a shot.

No Value

Don't waste your money. This would be a $35.00 Canadian dollars back in Edmonton.

The course was in very poor conditions. Its extremely dated and has extremely low value.

Greens are the best part of the course.

You can find lots of courses in the area with better value. Grand Canyon University course is 10x's the course.

Save your money. You can thank me later.

I will not play this course again under the current management/ownership

The course was in terrible condition! Tee Boxes were all chewed up with no evidence that the staff has worked to fix them. The fairways had abundance of areas with little or no grass. Some areas off the fairways had mud puddles due to leaky irrigation fixtures, The bunkers didn't have much sand. Thankfully, the greens were in reasonable condition. I've played here before and course conditions were not too bad. But, I probably won't be back to play...

Average

Average is about all I can say. Tees, fairways were just natural type grass. Greens were ok but nothing special. Cart girl was friendly (had coffee++ in morning), but only came around twice all round, which was ok for me. Rest of staff was just average. Starter seemed a little confused. Balanced the tee offs to threesomes which made sense then put us as foursome with twosome behind us who had to wait.??

All things considered, I enjoyed the round

Extreme disappointment

This course was in horrible condition and the price was outrageous. they haven't put any money back into this course that they've taken. I would never recommend this course and never play this course again.
