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.

Course was nice pace of play was terrible. No ranger to assist?

I paid through GolfNow and couldn’t use my Arcis card for rate reduction which wasn’t good either.

Mildly disappointed

I came in with really high expectations, but left a little disappointed. It's a great layout and friendly off the T. I was really disappointed in the green side bunkers and the large amounts of rocks and lack of sand. No I'm not referring to the waiste areas. I guess I just hoped for better based on price and reputation.

Great Course! All 7 really enjoyed!

From WI with 7 guys on our annual golf trip. Last round of the trip and we all enjoyed the range, golf and restaurant. Pace of play was incredible! Not your typical AZ course. Tree line and friendly contouring that moved errant shots back towards the fairway. It’s on our list to play again next year.

Ok, but not great

Frost delay had everyone in a bad mood … including the staff. Range was pretty beat up. At $180 didn’t seem that great. More like a $90 course … in season.

Bucket list course

Beautiful course with lush green fairways and rough. Would like to a combo tee box set up to play around 6,000 yds. A 555 yard par 5 is a little too long for me and at 486 yds a little long for my wife. It would speed up play. I don’t mind bunkers but they were inconsistent to wet and dry and too many tiny rocks which damaged my sand wedge. Will make it an annual round while visiting AZ.
