Rating Snapshot
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.

Good value for summer pricing
For the price of the hot deal booking it's a great value for practice. Seemed like there's no separate fairway, all mowed to the same length and a lot of weed grass on every hole. 2 tee boxes were temp areas and the greens were very long, closer to fringe length than traditional green length. They played VERY slow. For how short the coarse is, the greens are tiny. Definitely forces you to be accurate. I got a lot of practice chipping this round.
As long as the value pricing stays, ill come back.
Added a pic of a birdie put
Hello, ma11rats. Thank you for leaving us a review. We are sorry to hear your experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope to see you again soon. Thank you for choosing Desert Sands Golf Course.
Fun track, but greens are HAIRY long
Overall, this course is a great little exec when short on time or wanting to practice short irons. Rating would be better but the greens are like the first cut of rough they are so long and not mowed. I get there has been rain, but it appears they don't have the staff to mow as all other courses are normal conditions. You aren't really putting, more like croquet striking. Once the greens get mowed back down, they'll be great as they are lush for summer conditions.

Nice GC for anyone to play!!
Played 18 holes and everything went well. Smooth steady movement from hole to hole. Great value and the course is in Summer condition for AZ. Very clean Golf Carts. Great course to play for a quick game.

Nice Little Golf Course
I've played this course many times now and I really do like it. It may not be the most beautiful well manicured course but for someone like me who only gets out to play every few months it's perfect. Today the greens played very fast which was a challenge. It is an older course and I like the older courses like this one.
