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.

Divots, dirt, and scruffy tee boxes

The club house and restaurant are ok, but the golf course is struggling. There is no driving range. You can chip and putt, but there is no place to warm up hitting full swing. The tee boxes are full of divots, scruffy grass, and dirt. And please know this is reflected in the price. We played on Saturday, Feb 3 for $100 per person, the week before The Waste Management Open, a bargain for this time of year. The course is short, and at times challenging, especially the first hole. The pace of play was good. We started at 7:30am and completed our round in 4 hours. If they could fix the tee boxes and add a driving range, they could charge $100 more per round.

There used to be a range there and an executive 9 but they filled it in with homes or apartments or whatever they built there now. All about the mighty dollar to the course's detriment.

Worst pace of play I’ve ever had. What?!!

I’ve played here before and had a good time but I played yesterday and it was horrible. Over an hour behind scheduled pace of 3.5-4 hours. It took us 5.25 hrs to finish. Started at 1pm and was dusk hole 18!!

I asked the Marshall what was going on at the turn and he blamed “some girls” 2 groups ahead of us but did nothing about it and didn’t even realize how far behind schedule we were. Management needs to figure out how to keep pace of play going on bc that was terrible experience waiting 3-6mins every single hole.

Rough course

Paid $70 to tee off at 2:30

Course was extremely slow, and the conditions were brutal.

Almost $100 to not finish and the course was in such bad shape. Don’t usually write reviews but this course is way overpriced.

Not in good condition

Painted mountain is what I consider my home course. I've played the course over three hundred times. Paid $81 to play today which was the most I've ever paid here. Course was in such poor condition. Fairways were bare. Green in terrible shape and grounds keeper put in every hole poorly .I've seen this course in much better condition and shape. And for the price that's being charged it needs to get back to that condition.

Painted Mountain

Not a 100 dollar course. Fairways were spotty. The greens were good. Short course, relatively easy. Friendly people working there. A 5 hour round with poor course conditions simply isn’t worth that green fee. I suppose supply and demand dictates the price.

Odd layout very close to residences. Not very challanging greens

Odd course layout. Sandwiched between residences. Short. Greens were good. Probably several other courses in the area to play before considering Painted Mountain

No driving range/No opportunity to warm up/

Read /Areas close to left, right, and back of greens are barren, like playing a shot off of cement.

Course needs work

Tee times were running behind almost an entire hour. Beautiful scenery, but course itself not so much. Lots of sparse brown grass and dirt. I'm used to looking down a fairway and seeing lush green, but my focus seemed to be caught by natural areas. This course needs work. First and last time playing.
