Superstition Springs Golf Club

They were transitioning over to the summer grass, so conditions were not great.

If you like challenges, then this course is made for you. Elevations, dog legs, fairway traps and natural hazards are built into this course. While I completed the round in less than three hours, expect to lose a ball or two or three but old adage of hitting the ball straight was written for Superstition Springs. Throughly enjoyable!!

I have played this course five or six times over the last 18 months and was shocked to see the condition it was in. The rough was basically dirt, the fairways were mostly burnt out as if they haven’t been watered, the tee boxes were chewed up and the greens had dead spots everywhere. This used to be one of my favorite courses in the valley but at this point, I wouldn’t be surprised if they were going out of business. Every lake except for one was completely dry and it looks terrible. The staff was friendly, they had a beverage cart running, and a grill at the turn, which was all great, but unless the course conditions improve drastically, I will not be returning.

Have not been to this course for quite sometime. Greens were in great shape. Some of the fairways had no grass in areas. Ponds need some work too much Duck weed and smelled terrible. In areas you had to stay on the cart path and walk to your ball because they were trying to get the grass to grow. Had a good time anyway.

Fun and challenging layout. Smelled like sewer on every hole and fairways and rough were in bad shape. Greens rolled nice. Wouldn’t recommend even at the 40$ afternoon price. I’m sure it was nice in its day but it’s been obviously neglected.

I love this course. I played this week and last. I thought the course was in great shape. I love that the driving range is on real grass, not mats! I think it’s a challenging course. Every single staff person was very nice & courteous. The only course I’ve played that has green fees well under $100, and I have played nearly every course in Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa, Fountain Hills. This is by far the best value, as the course itself is fairly difficult, in wonderful condition; grass on the fairways & greens was awesome. All areas are mowed perfectly. One complaint I do have is about the sand traps. The sand is hard & is more like dirt. One the other hand, I have yet to play a course in Arizona that has decent sand. Even at Whirlwind, with $250 green fees, the sand still sucked.

So sorry to say, but the course should be closed permanently. It may have been in good condition at one time but it is badly in need of a major overall or repurposed for other use. There are plenty of other choices in the greater Phoenix area.

5.5 hour round and we started before 9 am. After we were backed up 3 groups on the 5th tee, I called to have the ranger come around. We were told he would be out shortly to speed things up. We never saw the ranger the entire day. The starter told us if we were hungry at the turn call the restaurant at the 8th tee to place an order. We tried to call and sat on hold for 10 minutes before continuing on with our day and no food. At the turn we saw the starter again and let him know about the terrible pace of play. He radio'd our concerns in but this seemed to mean nothing as we tee'd off into the back nine 2 hours and 50 minutes into our round. The Ranger still never came. At some point we were able to see that there was a group probably 5 groups ahead that had at least 2 full empty holes in front of them. Could have been an easy fix, but the ranger was doing his own thing I guess. I talked up the course to some friends as I had played here before and thought the value was great compared to most courses in the Valley, but for no food available and a 5 hour 30 minute pace of play I will take my $100 elsewhere in the future.

Our first 9 took 3.5 hours. We were following a 2 person scramble and they were so slowww. At one point 4 groups were backed up.

They did allow us to do front nine again or would have allowed us to get a rain check for second nine. It took us 1 hour 20 minutes to do second 9.

The sand traps were hard and some of fairways were getting brown. Is a very challenging golf course but I picked a very bad time to golf.

Very interesting Back 9. Fun must play it a second time to know back9 bettering

All was well until the 16th hole. We joineca twosome there and went to the 17th hole and found a 3 done on the fair way and a 4some waiting to hit before w we could ever ger ready to hit so we went to 18 and found 3 foursomes there so we called it a day.

Tee’d off at 3:15 and made it around all 18 holes with a 7:08 sunset.
