The golf course at Red Mountain Ranch & Country Club is a beautifully designed layout set against a desert landscape with rock formations, mesquite trees, and cacti. Pete and Perry Dye designed the course, combining both beauty and challenge. This championship course was built on rolling terrain and has large, sharply contoured greens and extensive mounding that is reinforced with railroad ties. There are not only deep sand bunkers but also grass bunkers protecting the greens. There are also four ponds on the course at Red Mountain Ranch & Country Club, but only three create water hazards that come into play on four holes. A notable hole on the course in which water comes into play is the sixth, a hole that has a peninsula green with water surrounding it along three sides.

Mesa magic

The condition of the course and the layout is exceptional. The staff was friendly and helpful. I will be back.

A more active course marshall to keep pace would be my only suggestion for improvement.

Great course

Greens a little slow, but otherwise course in excellent shape. Outstanding practice facilities, with the exception of no greenside bunker to practice from. Would give 5 stars but for those two issues. Will definitely play this course again when the opportunity presents!

Fun layout, slow greens

Really fun to play a Dye designed course. Full of hills, need to be accurate on your approach, target practice. Only hit driver on a few holes. Memorable course to play with a lot of unique holes, great views of the valley and mountains. Course is in a great residential community where the homes aren't too close to the course.

Great rough, fairways were in great condition. Bunkers were mud instead of sand on a few holes. Greens were extremely slow and did not roll well. Really patchy growth in different spots on the green, balls would hit overgrown grass and slow way down.

8 minute tee time intervals slowed things on the back 9. No GPS on carts. Food available at the turn, each 9 ends at the clubhouse.

Single player

Pared up with “three gentlemen” from Edmonton. Slow play, constant bickering and vulgar language spoiled my day. I finally left after the 15 hole as I couldn’t take any more.

Too Tricked Up!!

Pete Dye is known for his tricked up courses, with limited view of landing areas off the tee, giant undulations in the middle of the fairway, deep gullies all around the greens, and railroad ties everywhere! Well, this course is full of all of the above. Miss the fairway by a few yards, and there's a good chance you lose your ball. Way too tricked up to be considered a good golf course, especially in the Phoenix area. Dozens of WAY better courses to spend your $150 on, that will give you a more fair & enjoyable day of golf. Plus, they were just coming off the re-seeding outage, so the greens were painfully slow, and there were many wet & sloppy areas in the fairways. Go to Longbow GC just down the road for a MUCH better layout, nicer condition, and playable golf course! Get to the Legacy GC as well... much better!

A nice Pete Dye course

I played early in the morning so the pace of play was great. I really enjoy the desert setting courses, challenging, but beautiful. The course had been recently over seeded so some greens were cut longer than others which added to the challenge. For me the back nine was more difficult than the front nine. I’d play the course again.

Great course

I haven't had the opportunity to play Red Mountain for over 20 years. Much has changed on the course over the years...a lot more houses and less desert views. However, the course hasn't really changed and it's still a treat to play! A great Pete Dye build!

So much potential hindered by a lack of capital commitment

This 35+ year old Pete Dye layout has a lot of potential, but would appear not to have had much investment over that time. The clubhouse, grill and off-course amenities are straight out of the late 80s to early 90s. The course itself is a decent layout, subject (of course) to the typical Pete Dye shenanigans. Most greens are domed. Many have the typical railroad-tie backings to green-side bunkers or simply siding greens, and an inordinate number of fairways have absurd mounding and contour leading to great, center-stripe drives landing in spots that will have balls hanging above, or lying below your feet. Views are spectacular of Red Mountain and the Tonto National Forest beyond the attractive housing development around the course. Staff are courteous, if not particularly friendly. The value is currently pretty good—the course does not see the amount of play—or command the greens fees—of its neighbors Las Sendas, Longbow, or Alta Mesa. It’s definitely worth a round, or more if you enjoy a Dye layout.
