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.

Lots of bare ground (no grass). Standing water in fairways. Probably will not be back.

Golden Bogs

One might be able to get a glance of hills far to the east on occasion, but none on the course. What they did have were many wet areas in fairways and around greens. Winter grass was inconsistent. It is not a course that drains well. Greens were cut and fast and bunkers were rakes and had sand. Tee boxes were a mixed bag with leveling needed. Not a bad course but just too wet for a sunny mid day round.

Golden Hills

Unfortunately there were a lot of wet areas from overwatering. They really need to get a good maintenance supervisor that cares. There are still lots of dead trees on the property.

When you own/run a golf course ya gotta hire people that are smart enough to grow grass. Same crap as in the past. Way way too many bare dirt spots.

The Course is in good shape.

I have played this course on and off for 15 years. I think it’s in good shape except for number 12 It seems like there’s always water laying in the center of the fairway on this hole. Other than that, we had a good time finished in four hours and played with a nice couple. We booked another tee time for Friday with our two adult children. Good job Arizona Golf Resort.

League Tune-up

Played here because many other courses were doing over seed and not open. AGR had just re-seeded, and the course was pretty soggy. Cart path only which made play a little slower than normal. Greens were in great shape on most holes. Staff friendly and helpful. This is the best value right now; my group has played this course often during this time period in the past.
