Rating 73.0

The East Valley's Superstition Springs Golf Club offers one of Arizona's most testing layouts, measuring over 7,000 yards, with a slope rating of 130. Golf course architect Greg H. Nash designed the course and worked with the landscape already in place to provide the abundant mounding, wide bunkers and good-looking but tough-playing water features.

By the time he had finished with the Superstition Springs Golf Club, Nash had created a golf course that Golfweek called one of America's Best Golf Courses.

After - or before - a round of golf at the Superstition Springs Golf Club, hit up the restaurant for breakfast, lunch or drinks either inside or on the patio, which overlooks the golf course's signature hole, the ninth.

Great people under rough circumstances

The course is in tough shape. They were upfront about it and the fees reflected it. They had a sprinkler line break during the hottest stretch of summer. The staff were outstanding, the pace of play was awesome and I will definitely go back when the course recovers. Money well spent, and kudos to the proshop and outside service staff!

Bad conditions and worst starter.

I have played here a couple times. The starter is the worst part of the day. He acts like he is the center of the golf world and needs to shut-up. He talks for 5 minutes before you can pass him and gives you nothing notable. This is not how I want to spend my money. The course is in fare condition for the heat and money. It is a very blue collar hacker course. The positives are the bag drop workers, cart girl and restaurant employees were really good.

This course has gone downhill. No maintenance, poor amenities. Surprising this is still an Arcise course. Just sad. Find somewhere else to play.

If this is your only opinion stay Home

I’ve played this course in the past so I had no issue with booking the round. I must say this course is in horrible shape. I’ve never seen a course play this bad unless they were condemning it. The fairways had no grass, the bunkers were unplayable and the water was drained from the water hazards . Tee box’s were either dirt or overgrown. It was bad, this was the first time I ever took pictures to document how bad course conditions are. Don’t waist you time or money. It’s sad to see this course play and look like this.

Bumpy greens and dead fairways

Oh boy. Not good. The course is dead pretty kiche everywhere. I know it's summer, but trust me,lots more courses that are better for the money. Fairways were hit or miss rocks, gravel, dry dirt, mud, crab grass or every once in a while normal grass. Putting? Forget about it. The greens make your ball bounce like a pinball and you lose velocity quickly because of that. The water hazard are all dried up and smell bad. Unfortunately, a once gorgeous course has turned into a steaming pile

One of the worst courses I have seen in AZ

The course conditions were horrific. I expect the greens to be bumpy in July in AZ. But the rest of the course was horrible. Tees were not flat--uphill, sidehill. Some places had grass--likely where a sprinkler was placed--and it was so thick it was unplayable. The rest of the course had more dirt and weeds than grass. Very little sand in the bunkers (and that is being generous)

Water Please!

Golf Courses in the East Valley seem to be a contrast between the “haves” and the “have-nots”. And SSGC is definitely a “have-not” when it comes to course conditions. It seems they have too much grass and not enough water. Or they have several areas that are not working properly, as there are hoses and sprinkler heads in some of the fairways. Who knows, but for $70+ in July, I would expect more. Maybe that’s just “how it is” now. But it’s still a shame compared to what this course used to be 10-15 years ago…

Disappointed!

I wanted to take my son to one of the nicer courses in our area because the rates are low during the summer. We were both disappointed on how bad the condition of the course was. The 14th hole was closed, many of the holes were roped off so you couldn’t drive to your ball, the rough was so long in areas that you could be right next to your ball and never find it, and they lakes were dry. I’ve played plenty of courses in the summer that are still maintained, but it seemed like they just let this one go. Hopefully they can correct this. It has always been one of the nicer courses in this area.

Decent shape for the time of year

What staff they have are good, the pro shop, cart guys and beverage cart. They don’t have a starter or marshals so you can wind up with a foursome followed by a twosome, followed by a single, followed by another twosome. It’s probably the best they can do given the time of year and quantity of golfers. I had fun as the single and enjoyed the round. Many bunkers were awful and the best were so so. Like many other courses around the valley.

Room for improvement.

Played on june 18, 2024. Course conditions were pretty rough, pace of play was slow (5 hr round). Wasn't worth the price premium paid for Father's, but decent value at a lower price, around $40-45.
