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.

Monsoon rainfall hurt bunker conditions

We overlooked the bunker conditions due to the recent heavy rainfall. We know they’ll be returning to normal sometime soon.

Always good

We Teed off at 6 am on the front 9 but they were also letting people start on the back 9 all morning as well. We finished the front in under 2 hrs and the back took almost 3 because we got stuck behind 6 groups. Frustrating to wait, specially when we get out that early but still one of my favorite courses in the valley.

value for greens fees

IF all the courses offered thru golfnow were valued as well as this course was, it would make it much easier paying the $100+ for the courses which aren't comparable to the Raven. OF course location is probably an issue as it doesn't have a Scottsdale address But for those of you looking for a nice change from back and forth , mundane layouts , this one is well worth the effort to play!

Great for summer

This course never disappoints. The fairways and tee boxes look great however just in expect the greens to be slow and bumpy right now (typical for az summer). The course is playing a bit firm and fast which was very fun for me. There are lots of interesting linksy bumps and swails on the fairway and around the greens thay make things interesting. . Staff is great, service is great. They had a cart girl on a slow weekday which was nice . Raven also always offers free range balls before your round

Best fairways of the trip!

Looks like a typical municipal course when driving in but once you get into the course, it’s very nice. Pine tree lined fairways made a nice set up. Fairways were like carpet and we were getting 20+ yard run outs of drives. Only negative I had about the course was the punched green. It was like putting over rocks but the fairways made up for it.

A bad day of golfing beats a good day at work

Course was in excellent condition except for the greens. They had just been aerated the previous week and they were very bumpy and slow. Even the course ranger quipped "get used to 3 putting". We played in a light rain for the first 9 holes which is an extreme rarity in Phoenix, but the cloud cover helped to keep the heat down
