About
Located in Mesa, Desert Sand Golf Course is an executive length course with a short layout that is most suitable for beginners, but it is also a good place for golfers of all skill levels to work on their short game skills. Due to its flat terrain, the course is easy to walk with few elevation changes. The greens are remarkably fast and water hazards come into play on five holes. There are also sand bunkers scattered throughout the course. The Desert Sand Golf Course facility offers a chipping area and putting green and it is also home to a golf school.

Okay
Slight uneven tee boxes, very short par 4's, only 1 short part 5, no bunkers, elevated greens are on the smaller side and very undulating

All but one green was very consistent...as well as the fairways. Nice price for an executive course including a cart.

Play The Back Nine First
As late as was our tee-time was we could have played the back nine first. No one went from 9 to 10 for at least 30 minutes.. we paid for 18 and only got 9 holes in.
Very slow play.
However the two ladies we played with were very nice and played well.

Frost Delay?
Arrived 40 minutes early anf found they were about 1 1/2 hour behind due to frost delay!! The low temp of the evening was 45 degrees!!
Other than the delay, the staff and starter we amazingly pleasant and I got a little extra time to putt.
Pace of play was amazingly good and the back nine really opened up. Nice course.
Thank you for your review, CairoDave. We will pass along your positive experience and feedback to our team at Desert Sands Golf Course. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

Great Afternoon Golfing
We golfed 9 holes on Tuesday afternoon. The staff was very accommodating. We had several pars so that always makes for a better round.
Thank you for your review, u023476284. We will pass along your positive experience to our team at Desert Sands Golf Course. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Nice staff
For some reason the course did not get my GN reservation but they got me in within a half hour. It was a five-some but with the pace of play, it didn’t make any difference.
The guy in the pro shop and the starter were great!
