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.

SLOW PLAY

Waited on every single hole, after every single shot! Extremely slow play ruined the whole day. Turned out to be over 5 hours to play 18.

Better than the last time

Grass is still growing, good here and there but thin in a lot of places in the fairways. Greens were fast. They have made an effort to clean up garbage from the dried ponds. Still no marshal and play was slow. Beverage cart (Lincoln) is a plus. Traps were very compacted, we dropped out of most of them.

Greens were decent coming off of the overseed season. Bunkers need some love. Course layout is super but the empty ponds are unsightly for such a great track.

Not great conditions

Do not go off fairway or if you do and happen to find your ball bring it to fairway. Conditions not as per photos. Water features are all dries up so many weedy washes. Course was very busy with a slow 5some ahead of us. Would not play again!

This course has more of the trickiest fairways in the valley.

The constant search for balls off the fairways, relate to a slow pace of play. Taking five hours to finish a round isn’t always due to the inexperienced golfers in front of you.

The variety of Pat threes , four and fives make par golf challenging but in a competitive way.

Not worth the time

Disappointing from prior to the start at the range (only hitting off mats but no openings anywhere prior to teeing off) all the way through to the finish. The course might have been good once but it appears to have suffered from neglect and lack desire by the club to provide a quality golf course. The rough is very spotty with a mix of very thick rough with large bare patches. The worst part of the course are the teeing areas. The teeing areas are in very bad shape with large bare patches and some have significant undulating surfaces where you had to search to find an area to hit from.

On the good side the staff were very friendly and helpful for 4 golfers who had never played the course before. Unfortunately we will never play Superstition Springs again.

Great classic track, but…

I grew up playing this course when it was the premier club in Phoenix area. Back when it used to be a PGA Qualifier course it was challenging and well taken care of. It has gone through some changes more from a lack of initiative. Lots of the lakes have been drained and don’t have the beautiful appeal it once had. They are dried out pits with some trash in them. I expect this time of year to have that cleaned up and operational or transition to desert landscape like you did for hole 18. In addition, there is a lot of geese feces all over; tough to control that but it’s crazy the amount and it get all over your shoes, golf carts and push carts.

Nonetheless, it’s still a beautiful layout and post oversees in great condition. Pace of play was a little slow, but the weather is getting nice and I learn to appreciate the outdoors and be patient.

Slow play, poor condition

Left after it took 2:50 to play nine holes, no ranger, greens were marginal, huge clumps of mowed grass everywhere, didn’t get our cart until 5 minutes before golf, cause they’re short carts, get in it and starter calls our name, so no range..

Slow play

Not to say this is normal, as I have golfed here a few times and the pace of play was good, but on this day we hit 4 3/4 hrs. They did not have enough golf carts and we did not get any practice time in. We got our clubs loaded on a cart coming in and straight to the t box to start our round..New carts this year..staff is friendly..

First time Player

This was the first time I played the course. I was paired with another single and had a great time with him. Excellent pace of play on the back 9. The greens were small which made it a challenge to get on in regulation. The grass areas around the greens and the bunkers were high and the mowed grass was left and was clumpy. It made looking for balls a little hard.

For the price at this time of year i would recommend this course.

Great shape

Everything was excellent! Only issue is length of rough. Just 3 feet off the fairway and you're not finding your golf ball! Other than that everything is 5 Star. Even greens were rolling good considering they're coming back from overseeding.
