The Painted Mountain Golf Club is a challenging desert-style course with a variety of different tees to accommodate every age group and skill level. The course offers a lengthier challenge from the first hole, a par-5 dogleg right, to the last, which requires an approach shot over water in order to reach the green. The Painted Mountain Golf Club, in addition to the course, is also home to the John Jacob's Golf School.

Something went south

We played this course a month ago, cart path only, it was in great condition! Played on 11/16, 90 degree rule, and the course literally has gone downhill! Lots of dead grass spots in the fairways, some tee boxes had just sand and were not level, greens were so-so, and one hole par 3 possibly #12, had a leaking irrigation and there was a pond on the approach to the green. I hope they fix it! Would like to see the trash picked up routinely during the day. It’s sad to see how bad the course is right now. The staff is great though!

Fun course, not too expensive

Course was in oretty good shape, just coming out of overseeding. Second time i have played here and its fun. Not as nice or interesting as msny in the valley, but not as expensive either.

No range so be warm when hou arrive.

Wait a few weeks

Unfortunately the course did not come through the summer very well. There was a notice on the carts stating that because of the weather the grass was not very good. They stated that once the cooler temperatures have started the conditions should be better. I would recommend waiting a few weeks before playing this course.

Affordable Local Golf

It’s more of a resort golf course, flat and straight forward, able to score well, affordable for local golfers to get a couple of rounds in without breaking the bank.

Needs improvement

First off I played as a single. starter never called me. I had to skip # 1 tee shot and catch up with the couple he put me with half way down the fairway. Course layout is great and beautiful. Course needs water. Lots of dead areas around tee boxes. Course needs a marshal who does his job. I had to quit on 16 after 2 hrs 45 min to make an appointment. Foursome of idiots ahead of us with no clue. Our 3 some waited almost every hole while they were teeing off. They never once thought of letting us play thru. Guys behind us thought we were slow and hit into us twice. I won’t hurry back to play again

Ok course

Even after over-seeding the course is pretty beat up. Due to the conditions I wish the price as a little better. More like a $50 max course on the weekends. I had a good time though. And the staff were super friendly. I’ll come back on a hot deal or something.

Small greens, par 70

This is a shorter par 70 course. First hole is a long par 5 around a lake. It’s easy to hit the ball through the fairway, or into the lake on the right. There is no driving range, so be ready when you arrive.

Greens are small with some grain and slope. We basically had a no hitter on the greens, no real putts made. We played in under 4 hours and had a lot of fun.

Cart guy is ver friendly.
