The Lakes At Ahwatukee

I went there yesterday to play a practice round on my short game , Mission Accomplished, greens are in pretty good shape,fairways are decent, I didn’t use the driving range, practice greens is okay.No cart person, no restaurant, bare bones golf course

Well we should have waited 2 more weeks after reseeding

Cuz cart path is fine walking lot but greens aren't ready for golf nor fairways, ...... We will go back when it's better,

Do not waste your money on this man, I showed up and didn’t even play. club house is a trailer it’s all dirt except for a bit of the fairways and the green, this place needs to shut down. I’m trying to get my money back from golf now because it was a complete scam.

This is basically an overrated par 3 course with 3 par 4’s on the front and 3 on the back. I thought by starting at 8:30 I’d be done by noon. Unfortunately the pace of play was dreadful. It didn’t matter if you had a tee time or not -whoever showed up went straight to first tee, and from there the snarl ensued.

We barely made it to the turn by 11:30, and high AZ sun was beating down. I was spent and went back to the condo pool. The course is really, really rough. It was so hot even the coyotes were heading for shade - hard too find with barely a few palm trees.

The pro shop is a literal half size single wide trailer, no alcohol, half the course is dirt, half the sand traps aren’t even sand, majority of bathrooms are porta-potty, and they charged $55 to play this garbage course. Save yourself time and money and just go to the range.

A fair review of the course is not possible.

it is in redevelopment and has potential.

it was an unexpected 114 degrees after 9 that day, adding a little suffering to the round. But that's not the course's fault.

I'll play there again absolutely, but not with a client. (Maybe by 2026?)

This course has nice bones. The lakes were about half full due to a microburst damaging the pump that feeds them. I played on a weekday so nobody ahead or behind me. There are some long holes that let you use all the clubs in your bag. Greens were well kept. Staff was friendly.i look forward to playing again when the lakes are full. Only complaint was the J john on the 15th or 16th hole was the most disgusting filthy mess I've ever seen and I've been a frame carpenter for 35 years. I couldn't go inside of it.

"once one of the best... "

LOL

Maybe 20yrs ago. Not today. This place is NOTHING like it used to be. Bad ownership has killed it. Trees were cut down. Clubhouse gone. Parking lot even crumbling apart asphalt. Huge swaths of bare dirt everyware ... Even on greens. Ball jumps around on the bumpy greens. They can't even manage to put water in the ball washers... Which you will need because of all the mud your ball picked up IN THE FAIRWAY.

Easily the worst course I have played in the last 5yrs. Stay away.

The course needed some attention. Fairy grass was dead in playable places. Greens looked burnt. No water available on course.

The tee boxes and greens are in good shape. The staff was friendly and helpful. The fairways are lacking bermuda grass. This is an executive course which allows a faster pace round.
