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.

Great Staff

Dylan at the front desk couldn’t have been nicer and made sure I was well taken care of when I checked in and was able to answer every question I had. Course is fun and decently priced!

Good value for the money. Biggest complaint is not with course but does anyone know how to fix their ball marks on the green? Jeez I probably fixed 5 or 6 on every hole.

Poor on course staff knowledge & attitude

My buddies’ cart was approached by the Marshall on the 6th hole to tell them we were 4 holes behind. We had been out for 1 hour, 14 minutes; 12 minutes 20 seconds per hole. The threesome behind us was never in sight and we finished right at 4 hours. I’d prefer 3 hrs, 45 minutes max but it was early and the course was still saturated so we came up short on our approaches for the first hour.

He said that he was instructed by the pro shop, but they seemed unaware and unconcerned when we explained it to them at the turn. We were well below the average 4-some per hole of 15 minutes. The mention did annoy my partner for the next few holes of trying to hurry. Get your heads together and facts straight Marshall. The time elapsed shows clearly on the cart. I’ve never had issue in the pro shop as they are good friendly people. Follow their lead or go work elsewhere. The course is nice this year. Be the same.

Better since overseed

First time playing here since September and there have definitely been some improvements. Greens are in pretty good shape and the fairways are improving. Lots of dead trees that you still have to navigate around and a few dead spots on every fairway.

Awesome Course

Had a phenomenal time at this course. Just found a cheap deal on GolfNow, and didn’t expect the course to be as well maintained and beautiful as it was. Owner is an amazing guy, and the course has a great support staff. Would recommend!

Not worth the money

Not a bad course but in no way is it worth $90 to play!!! Tee boxes need work and way to much ground under repair. No where near worth value for money.

My go-to

We come to this course pretty frequently. The staff is super friendly, the tee times aren’t wildly expensive, and the course has really good variety. Very fun!

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.
