The Lakes At Ahwatukee

Porta Potties were disgusting, no toilet paper or hand sanitizer. Greens were terrible, very rough. Tee boxes were like concrete. No ammenities on the course, no liquor, no restaurant, the lakes were disgusting, dead foliage, garbage, looked like a sewer.

Can see efforts are being made to improve course. Greens very rough. An ok course considering this for the price.

I know they are trying to make this work, but honestly the course conditions are horrible. Greens are unusable - combo of crabgrass, dead grass and not a smooth spot to be found. Some fairway areas were marginally "ok" but the amount of weeds and dead spots was beyond reasonable. There is no way this course will be able to stay in business without a massive investment in conditions. I'm truly sorry to leave such a bad review, but this was money wasted and not at all an enjoyable experience.

Pass of play was not great. Many singles and twosomes. Should be joining up groups especially when fully booked. No control really as to each tee time going out at the booked time. Check in person didn't care, we were early, said just go but make sure group ahead is far enough ahead before hitting.

Toilets on course fairly acceptable but no hand sanitizer in the dispensers.

Head guy scolded us upon leaving after we turned carts into wash area. Came out to our car and said we left a bottle in our cart and that we should have removed it. Sorry but that’s his job! Lazy! So much for promoting the course he works at. The four of us will never return.

Overall, the course could be so much more. Great layout, but it was a little unkempt when we played. Biggest disappointment is that when we attempted to modify our reservation to add one more player, the phone number wouldn't go through. Then, a request made online was never responded to.

The resuscitation of The Lakes is progressing. I for one am glad it’s happening. I’ll keep playing here and I’m excited to see how the place evolves.

I think this is the course that closed for a while and it still looks like it! the layout wasn't too bad and definitely challenging. The greens were NOT great - very bumpy. The course had lots of tall weeds.

There was water on the front, but the lakes on the back were empty and full of weeds. The fairway wasn't bad.

It was inexpensive and I was playing with beginners, so it was fine for my needs for that day.

This course is a work in progress but I’m glad it’s open and available, at least there is someplace to play that is not booked up a month in advance this time of year.

Very nice course for the money. Greens still a little rough, especially the back nine. But to be expected, since the back nine opened last fall. Very nice layout. Will play again.

Booking at 9 minute is unfair for the type of player on this course ; backup on every hole. Some irrigation would help. No GPS available & hole signage is inaccurate. Has some potential.
