Ahwatukee Country Club

There was / is nothing redeeming about this course. Pace of play was 5+ hours. They don’t have a starter so it is a free-for-all off the first tee. Fairways were muddy or dirt. Tee boxes are chopped up. Some holes didn’t have forward (red) tee boxes marked. First set of bathrooms had to light so we left the door open. Second set of bathrooms - one was out of order and the one operating bathroom has no toilet paper. There was no beverage cart service. It was terrible. Will never golf this course again.

Dump trucks unloading. Lots of noise. Many places torn up. More weeds than grass.

I think this course MIGHT even be worse than kokopelie, and things don't get much worse than that .

The entire course is under construction. There wasn’t a single hole where there wasn’t some kind of distraction. I probably counted at least 15 front loaders or some type of heavy machinery, dump truck etc. I literally teed off on 17 in between a dump truck and a frontloader you think they would stop working while you’re teeing off but nope. I’m surprised the workers haven’t been hit by a golf ball because they don’t even acknowledge that there is someone playing golf there.We were two of the few people on the course which is why pace of play was OK. I understand they’re trying to improve the course but they’re charging $15 more than courses nearby. At least drop your prices if you’re going to provide a garbage golf course.

The greens are fine but there is no grass in the fairways, only dirt and weeds.

Pros: The greens (as long as you were not on the edge that was overgrown with weeds), were in really great shape. Putting was the most fun part of this course

Cons: Four of the holes has sprinklers going off in the middle of the fairway throughout our time playing the holes.

Fairways? No... Mudways would be more fitting.

Mud dunes littered alongside the greens and tee boxes

The tee boxes! Many looked like a mine had gone off - plus they are far from flat: choose your tee shot lie wisely. You either have a below your feet or above your feet lie off the tees.

Back to the fairways - standing water made it very swampy. However, most of the fairways were overgrown with weeds which was a preferrable lie compared to the lack of grass in the fairway at all.

Overgrown weeds sometimes made tee shots that landed in the fairway impossible to find.

Standing water in all sand traps making it muddy clay.

All that being said, my group had a fun time - we just adjusted some rules: If you land in a sand trap, you get free relief no further to the hole (If they cannot upkeep the fairways, the sand traps are certainly not kept up either); If you land your shot in the fairway and it lands in swampy mud water, you get free relief onto a preferrable lie no closer to the hole; If you land next to a sprinkler located in the middle of the fairway, you get free relief no close to the hole.

Although this 18-hole-round was $37ea, we all feel that we overpaid for this course in its current state

Other than the greens, which were in pretty good shape, this course doesn’t look like it is ever watered. Most fairways had no grass on them, and there were dirt areas where the rough should be.

Despite the conditions, it was packed and we waited on all but about 10 shots the entire round.

I've seen greens on the PGA tour that didn't look as well maintained. Tee boxes were good too, but the fairways need work and the layout was hard to follow at times.

We played this course on Father’s Day . I brought water with me because i knew it would be hot (114 degrees) . At the 10th hole, I ran out of water but knew the 12th hole had a water station. We arrived at the 12th hole and found that the water container was empty. I called the clubhouse and spoke to a female employee, who told me that someone should have filled the water jugs in the morning. I told her that the water jug was empty, I asked her if she had a cart girl on today or Marshal and she told me that they did not. She did advise that she would get someone to send us out some water. We made it to the 17th hole and not a single employee from the golf course came out and provided us with water, I knew the 17th hole was also a water station. When we got to the 17th hole, we realized that there was no water, the jug was empty. I called the clubhouse again and they said they would send somebody out but we all know how that turns out, again no one showed. We were on 18 halfway down the fairway when a rude/ P.O. Guy in a cart was heading towards us with a bucket of water. I waved at him, screamed at him, yelled at him, stood in front of him, and he literally drove past me without even stopping. The customer service at this golf course is absolutely horrible, and I will probably not go back. I try to support local golf courses and businesses, but when your customer service is absolutely horrible I can’t bring myself to spend money at your business.

It is what it is. Great value and always enjoy the time.

Course was in good condition except there was too much standing water. Sand traps were just mud.
