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.

Course was great and the pace was better!

I was here visiting and only had a one chance to play a round. I definitely am happy with choosing this course. Club rentals were really well priced and the hot deal price on golfnow made this a total steal. The staff were all great as well

Review

Pace of Play was terrible….5:05 hr round. This was accentuated with the course layout that had four par 3’ s on the back nine and to of those were back to back (holes 15 & 16).

Course was in really tough shape. Fairways were ok, rough was just dirt for the most part. Greens were hard and fast but very bumpy.

Overbooked

It took over five hours to play simply because the course was over booked The Ranger was quite rude trying to hurry us along, only to wait behind two groups on the next tee. he had no idea how to manage the course, then again, his hands were kind of tied with the amount of people that are on the course.

Overpriced for conditions

Very average course at a very expensive time. Saturday afternoon, 1:30 tee time, five hours waiting every hole. Guess I was desperate.
