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.

Stay Away

Just in deplorable conditions. No rough, just rocks and stones and more G.I.R. Unmarked areas that i have ever seen. $200 down the tubes. Pete Dye would be so embarrassed if he saw how they treated his brilliant course design. sad.

Challengeing course

This course is not for beginners. It has many challenging greens and a fair amount of bunkers. Many of the greens a raised which will make it difficult for beginners. If you’re looking for a challenging course this is a must play course.

Curious...

I love playing this course, especially early AM. The past 2 times, however, "members" without tee-times hopped on the course behind me & just kept pushing. We weren't even off the green when they'd take their approach shots. Pretty rude conduct. So, members don't need tee times?

Beautiful Course!

Starter provided all the tips we needed. Pace was perfect with nobody visible behind us or ahead of us. Beautiful conditions for the course and weather.

As good as ever

Return visit: fairways and greens were top notch

As always with Pete Dye courses you are punished if you miss the small greens. But a fair risk reward challenge….but not for the faint hearted. Staff very helpful.

Red Mountain Ranch

Overall a good course. Course conditions good. Pete Dye course with very extreme green complexes. Expect a lot of three putts. Otherwise a fun course. Played with another twosome who we were paired up with. Both were super friendly, one is a member and they helped us navigate the direction off the tee as there were a lot of doglegs. Only complaint of this course was pace of play was a bit slow 4 hours 49 minutes. But, for the price , Red Mountain Ranch is a good value and I’d not hesitate to return and play it again.

good challenge

course was in good shape except for the greens which were slow and fuzzy. Too bad that they are not cutting and rolling to get the speed up.

Very hilly course

This is an excellent golf course. It’s just to hilly for me to play and enjoy myself.

That’s the only reason I wouldn’t recommend it.

Nice Dye Course / Friendly Staff

We played this course with a 2pm tee time and pace of play was excellent! Played in under 3 1/2 hours.

Typical Pete Dye course with deep bunkers, greens with false fronts, as well as turtle back greens, and lots of railroad ties. Fun & interesting round.

Only saw the beverage cart once in 18 holes - on the back nine and she was leaving for the day.

Meh...

In my opinion, not worth the drive from Phoenix/Scottsdale unless--and only unless it's a "Hot Deal" or "Deal Time." Fairways and greens were nice but waste areas were unkempt and ugly. Range was in terrible shape. Guy in pro shop was a minimalist on conversation(his prerogative I guess) and while I did take the outside ops guy up on his offer to clean my clubs(a service I always appreciate as I am happy to spread the tip money around and like clean clubs), but he was socially awkward.

Most enjoyable

Nice layout although not difficult but in great shape and some interesting holes!

Enjoyed my round but was far too slow which was annoying and spoilt the occasion slightly.

Staff were super friendly.

Only downside was that they charge $10 for range balls which I think is unnecessary.
