The sun shines 350 days a year in Phoenix and you can enjoy this factor at Ahwatukee Country Club. "Ahwatukee" is Crow Indian for "house of dreams", but this could easily be the "golf course of dreams".

The semi-private Ahwatukee Country Club offers an 18-hole golf course designed by John Bulla in 1974 that is open year-round and includes a driving range, as well as a cart included in the greens fee. The golf course is par-72 and measures 6,713 yards from the championship tees.

The Ahwatukee Country Club golf course features a fairly wide-open layout, but has out-of-bounds areas on either side of the fairways - including some with houses, so watch out for those windows - as well as water hazards on some holes. The putting greens play fast.

After a tight front nine on the Ahwatukee Country Club golf course, things open up on a razor-sharp par-4 dogleg 10th hole, with no chance to cut corners: there's a towering forest to the left.

Leaves A TON to be desired

The course design itself isn’t actually too bad, narrow fairways a couple of holes with water in play, long holes to work on your distance game.

This is where the good ends.

It feels like they booked tee times every 3 minutes. Set to tee off at 2:40, and we are already behind by 5 minutes.

Your finish your hole after waiting 5-15 minutes in front of you to finish, only to pull up and watch that same group be waiting for the group ahead of them to tee off.

Everyone wanted to skip each other but the problem was 18 holes deep.

The greens were more like half sand half grass.

Staff was awesome and their amenities seemed nice.

The value of playing in the afternoon for 18 holes for 30-40 bucks is there, just a shame because the course could really actually be a major hit if they watered the grass, and spaced out tee times / had someone trying to enforce pace of play.

Advice? Pay an extra 20 bucks and play elsewhere

Very rough greens

The course is in fair condition, but the greens are terrible. They're heavily sanded and very bumpy.

Good price…horrible greens!

The pace of play was a little slow for a Friday afternoon. The bunkers were concrete, and the greens were in terrible condition, sandy and bumpy. Fairways weren’t too bad. Only laid about $40. Can’t see paying more than that until the course is in better condition.

Sunday at Ahwatukee golf club

The course was fine, however the greens are in terrible condition for it only being April. Hard to imagine them getting any better as the summer approaches. The course layout and the pace of play was good. The staff was extremely friendly and I would golf here again. Hopefully they figure out the greens.

Really bad conditions

There are no positive things to say about any of the conditions. The tees, fairways, greens and bunkers are a mess. An outside service person told me the course is improving since last year. I guess that is positive, but they should be ashamed of themselves charging what they are for green fees. I had time to kill after the round before heading to the airport. Had a hot dog and plastic cup of beer for $19. This course went to the top of my 'never play here' list. Very disappointing.

Kids

No one on the course to regulate play pace. Kids on course taking there time and extra shots on every hole and very slow. They did not let anyone play through. When I skipped a hole to get in front of them, they purposely hit right next to me. I could have been hot by their ball if I didn't see them do it purposely. I then had to skip another hole to get away from them. No one around after the round to tell except for another kid cleaning carts. I think he was friends of theirs. I made my tee time in the afternoon with no other tee time before or after on that day. Only to find them right in front of me. I was a single. Not sure if their friend let them out for free. Waste of my money. I dont think I was even able to play 9 holes.

Should have asked for a refund when I got to the practice green

Short and simple, the course, with better greenskeepers, would be phenomenal. The greens are a horror show that are pretty much unputtable unless you use the force. Standing water on several fairways from the sprinklers that were running while we were trying to shoot, not fun playing "hurry up so you dont get drenched by the sprinkler" golf. I would pass on this course until the conditions are improved. By far the worst greens I have encountered, when your playing partner gives you a free relief, on the green, cuz you landed in sand (without a trap on that hole), its not a good thing.

Easter on the course

The course is okay. The pace of play was great since crowds very small. The course was extremely dry and some spots and standing water in other so maybe sprinkler issues? The restaurant puts out some really good food.

Horrible greens

Last few times golfing the course the greens were the worst I’ve ever seen . The course is actually descent but the greens have been going bad to worse . Not sure what’s going on but I thought they have been definitely turning the course around and the prices have been going up .. but now definitely not worth the price

Bad greens but cheap

We paid $30 each including cart and played in 3 hrs and 15 minutes, so that made the terrible greens tolerable. Tees and fairways were mostly ok but could use a haircut.
