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.

8 some

back nine came to a screeching halt on #12 when 2 foursomes decided to join to speed things up. It slowed things down. We had to jump ahead of them in order to finish before dark.

Good but could be much better

The course conditions were below average for January. Uneven tee boxes (how hard is it to make even tee boxes?), numerous bald spots, and fallen tree limbs not picked. Just a little bit of attention and giva-care would go a long way towards improving this course.

Otherwise, I really enjoyed playing this course. The greens were in great shape. Staff very friendly and competent.

The course allow slow slow fivesomes

The course has a Marshall that does nothing to control the pace of play. We had three groups on every hole on the entire back 9. Very slow play due to fivesomes…

Second time back

I just like this course… it reminds of an old country club something we lack in the valley…. The only thing I would offer a negative opinion on is that the tee boxes need some love

Overpriced

Very overpriced for what it is. No driving range and the course was choppy. Inconsistent greens and tee boxes. Layout isn’t very good. Very narrow and some tee boxes are behind the previous green so if someone over shoots, you can get hit
