Red Mountain Ranch Country Club

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.

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.

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!

What happened to the greens?? Play this course at least 5-6 times from November through March and they have never been this bad.

Love the course and they have great food.

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.

the course was in good shape after overseed. Pace of play was under 4 hrs.

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!

COURSE WAS IN GREAT SHAPE FOR JUST BEING OVERSEEDED. CHALENGING LAY OUT WITH SEVELRY ELEVATED GREENS. DONT BE AFRAID OF THE TIPS AS THEY ARE ONLY 6650.

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.

Great track to get a mix of skill levels on. Quite a few fun holes with a variety of layouts to mix it up. I got out mid morning and didn’t have to wait on a single hole. Finished reseeding but still cart path only as of the day we played. Starter was super friendly and when I said it was my first time there he stopped me at the turn to ask how I was making out and get my thoughts on the course. Only bad experience was first thing at the pro shop, a woman cut me in line and then demanded they switch her tee time with another couple to get out with her friends in another slot… that’s not how tee times work, lady.

Course is very narrow and a little quirky but enjoyable. Pace of play was great for an afternoon tee time. Played in less than 4 hours.

Cart path only for the time being. The course is shaping up nicely for the fall season and better than most courses at this time of the year. Greens are getting faster too but still needs rolling. If you are a decent player, this course (from back tees) is about as hard as it gets in the east valley area - 144 slope rating ! Highly recommanded course for pro quality golf outing.

Great layout. Just finished reseeding so art path only or pace of play rating would of been higher. Greens were a bit tricky with some faster than others (cut with different mowèrs). Tough to get a good read on them.

Would definitely play again. Good value for the money.
