Golden Hills Golf Club
About
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.

Too much dead grass and hard dirt
Even in some of the fairways it’s just dead and rock hard. Go a foot left of any fairway and you’re hitting off rock hard clay.
Some of the greens are half dead.
I’d play it for 15 bucks all day long but even the replay rate of 20 is too much for what they offer

Not terrible..
Course was super soggy in many places around the course. Needs a lot of work at this place. Not worth the cost of the round. Better than sitting on the couch..

Very Average Neighborhood GC
We had a challenging and fun round with mercurial weather conditions.
We’ve always liked this course’s track but the conditions are dwindling. Many of the greens are in poor condition.
The staff is very friendly and accommodating.

They have made some nice improvements this spring. They still have a lot of work to do maintenance wise. The sprinkler system is there biggest problem.

Poor condition
It seems this course is trying to save itself into a non entity
Played here several years
Carts are junky
Never runs on time
Power cart lshortage
Place doesn’t accept cash
Any rain makes it a quagmire
It could be a real good course if somebody invested some TLC
