Rating 70.8

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.

Ahwatukee Golf Club Looking Good

The course has had its share of maintenance difficulties in the past, but recent improvements in the greens, fairways, and rough have made it a great place to play again. It's a really fun course with layouts and obstacles that are challenging, but don't require single-digit handicaps to post decent scores. Highly recommended.

Potential but needs a ton of work

It became pretty evident why the round was so cheap after getting onto the course. Lots of standing water, dirt / mud in the fairways.

This place has a lot of potential, but really needs a ton of love and work put into it. The layout was fun, some bunkers in tough spots around the greens, if the conditions of the course were better I'd have had a really enjoyable time.

Had to skip over a hole to pass up a group of kids that were messing around. Had I stayed behind them it would have been a 6 hour round. Pace was good up until that point, and then after getting around them. Eventually got caught up behind two more groups, but as a single it was to be expected. The groups in front played at around a 4 - 4 1/2 round pace, which was totally acceptable. I sat back and watched hockey on my phone while waiting for my turn, and was able to get the round done before dark.

I think it's fine for those looking to just get out and get a round in last minute, but it's certainly not a destination or a must play by any means in its current condition.

Should be called Grass clippings!

I swore never to play this course again a few years ago after a prior experience with pace of play and management, but this time it is all course conditions. With the exception of holes you can see from the road, all grass clipping remain on the course, so you literally have piles of grass everywhere. The grass is also mostly dead, and even when you are on green grass on the surface, down below it is dead and the ground is dry. The course also has massive holes, exposed water systems with leaks, tears and tire marks everywhere. The greens are probably the best feature, but that is not saying much, as they are about a 3/5 at best. Avoid this course if you play golf anywhere remotely decent on a regular basis as this will be a miserable experience. If you are new to golf, this is a good course for you and play better courses as you improve.

Glad I only paid $9

You can’t even tell the fairway from the rough. There were areas around the green where the rough was so high that I couldn’t even find my ball that was 5 feet off the green.

Golf during Labor Day

The staff were friendly. But due to it being Labor Day, there were no service out on the course. But there were also no water in the water jugs provided on the course and bathroom code didn’t work. There were areas of grass that were swampy. We ended up stopping after hole 9 even though we paid for 18 holes. We wanted to try this course but we will probably not be back.

Worst course in AZ by far

This was the worst golf experience Ive ever had. No starter, pace of play was over 3 hours on front 9 we had to leave, they refuse to mow the grass, dead trees and branches all over the course, over watered and muddy, patches of dead grass and mud all over the fairway, no ranger, no cart service, water coolers all empty, and no one to clean clubs. I had told a friend I'd played several times really enjoyed it. This place has really fallen off do not go here.

Mud bog or shag carpet

This course has been the only one I could rate lower than Cild Water. Where to begin...

Greens: 80's shag carpet. Probably a 5 on a stimp. Nothing will hold. Nip a 60° and watch it roll. Bring a wedge in like a lawn dart returning from orbit and watch it roll. BUT, you couldn't attack short of the green to play a release because the mud would grab it like velcro.

Fairways: Not sure mowers were working. Patches in the middle were thicker than the rough. Irrigation is also an issue. If you didn't land on what little grass was there it was a sloppy mess. Standing water everywhere. I had more mid balls in 1 rounds than I've had collectively in many years.

Bunkers: Good ones were good (rare) bad ones were concrete and caverns.

Tee boxes: Again, not sure if all of the mowers were broken or not, but most were about 3" thick. The ladies red tee boxes weren't even laid out on many of the holes so we just had to guess for the wife.

Cart paths: Suggestions. So many were full of water, mud, or both.

This place is listed as Ahwatukee Country Club. Seriously disappointing. Not worth the drive nor the cost.

Get what you pay for

Course condition was rough, staff was incredibly friendly though! It was very slow paced without a Marshall to keep people on track but would go back.

Needs ALOT of work

Normally love this track for the summer value knowing that it won’t be in the best of shape when I go. But this was worse than usual. I know they’re renovating, but the grass all over the course was over grown or non existent. Bunkers had puddles of water from sprinklers being stuck spraying in one direction. Tee boxes were rougher than normal. Greens were okay enough. Probably would stay away for a bit until they can get a bit further in the renovation
