Raven Golf Club - Phoenix features a one-of-a-kind round of desert golf. Its fairways are lined with Georgia pine, and its greens have more tiers than one - the kind of golf course that only Gary Panks and David Graham could imagine, and a can't-miss on your next golf trip to Phoenix. Over the ages, the golf club has garnered all sorts of recognition.

The layout features plush, rolling fairways framed by thousands of mature trees, as well as vistas of rugged desert mountains and the Phoenix skyline. The golf course's flexible, strategic design offers a challenge for all players, and the variety it presents will give you the opportunity to use nearly every club in your bag.

That said, the Raven Golf Club - Phoenix might be the perfect place to turn a business trip to Phoenix into a golf trip to Phoenix - it's handy to Sky Harbor Airport and downtown Phoenix.

Not what you pay for

Arrived a few mins late but they worked with me so I was thankful for that although it still took 10 mins to get me a cart & hit the first tee box. Standing waiting for service with clubs for 10 mins. Then finally someone comes around & tries to give me a "your late" attitude. Rude. Then they gave me a soaking wet cart they just hosed down all over, with the prev players score still loaded on the screen. Pace of play was absolutely terrible, zero rangers anywhere to keep everyone on pace. At one point we had 2 separate groups waiting to tee off while 1 group was in the fairway & another separate group was still on the green. It was mind blowing to see this happening at such a course. I didn't even get to finish the 18 before it got too dark at about 545. It took almost 3 hrs to play 11 holes. What a joke.

Nice course, need to button up on the details

Raven is a really nice course, nice layout and very playable for all skill levels. We unfortunately got behind a 6-some, there were 6 guys in two groups that decided at 10 to become one 6 ball. It took them about 45 minutes to play the 10th hole (pace wasn’t great to begin with at 2:15 to 9 holes). We drove up to 10 and there were 3

Groups on the tee, one in the fairway and one on the green. It took the course about 3 holes to I think finally get them to break up and it then filtered out a bit but it was still a long day (5:15) in the sun. Fairways were pristine, greens were shaggy but I’m guessing that was from overseed. Staff friendly in the pro shop, the cleaner guys at the end were sort of jerks when they realized we didn’t want to tip like $40 to clean our clubs. All in all it was a nice course, would have been nice for the course to be a little better Marshall’s and get everyone moving along a little

Really fun course to play. Surrounded by trees which is so rare for the desert. Great fairways and greens. Nice carts with the gps and range balls included. Great pace of play

Course was great service was lacking

The course was in good shape. When you consider the recent storms that came through the conditions were exceptional. The check-in was fast and easy. The beverage cart was timely; we saw her 3 times. Unfortunately, the golf bag attendants were not helpful at all. 1st there was no one working the bag drop. After the round Jacob and Chase rather talk to each other than help my wife and I with clubs (no offer to clean the club heads and no offer to carry the bags to the bag drop.) if it wasn’t for Michelle (beverage cart), I’d given staff friendliness/ service a zero. For a course like Raven charges service should be better.

Absolutely Beautiful

Course was in great shape for it being played in the Arizona summer. It also did not feel like an Arizona course. It felt like I was playing on the east coast.

Good day to play

The course was in great shape and even caught a break from the weather.. The only issue during my visit was the golf cart. The first one given to me started to die so it had to be replaced on the turn. However, the next cart I received steering linkage was possibly broken or disconnected making it very difficult to steer.

Excellent experience

The course is in great shape. The staff was wonderful from the time that we got out of the car to the time that we got done with the round. Everyone was smiling and very friendly. We got a bite to eat afterwards, and the restaurant was outstanding. The food was excellent. Their service was excellent. Great job.
