The Lakes At Ahwatukee

Had 5:27 am tee time. Gate closed until the guy showed up at 5:30am.

Course is a s———hole

Fairways and greens are in rough shape. No restrooms except a few portopoties. Water/ponds on the course need to be cleaned they are very green and don’t look as if they are circulating at all. It was my understand this used to be a highly rated golf course but playing it I don’t see that at all

The layout of the course is fun, but the amenities are lacking and the range balls are terrible.

Every time I play there, I really do want to support the course as it's local and I can play the round pretty quickly. It helps with short game and great for family golf.

But you can't get past how dried out the course is, the lakes are all dried out or some have a ton of green stuff growing. The grounds crew is always weed whacking something, but really what? There really isn't any grass. They need to really till the turf and lay down more seed or sod in so many places, as it's just dirt.

The lay out is fun, as you can hit so many different irons and wedges and some par-4s where you can hit driver or fairway wood if you wanted.

Please get a team that can really fix this up better.

I have not golfed for 18 months due to some health issues. This course helped me ease back into the 'swing' of things. Pretty much a straightforward course.

First time at this course and pleased with the morning of golf there!

AL USED TO BE A DECENT AND FUN COURSE, BUT NOT NOW. TREES ARE GONE, FAIRWAYS ARE GREEN BUT HARD-PACKED, GREENS DO NOT ROLL WELL AND LAKES ARE MOSTLY DRY. BEST THING IS YOU WON'T LOSE MANY BALLS IN THE WATER BECAUSE THERE IS NOT MUCH LEFT. GOOD PLACE FOR BEGINNERS TO PLAY/PRACTICE BUT NOT MUCH ELSE. PRICE IS MUCH TOO HIGH FOR WHAT THEY OFFER.

We enjoyed this course, opportunities to use lots of clubs. A Hole in One on #6- very exciting for someone golfing less than a year

I believe that in its heyday, this was a fun and challenging executive course. As it stands now, it is really only playable if you can stay on the fairways, which are not in good shape either. The greens look great from afar, but upon reaching them they are like a a crown of broccoli to play on, and I mean that literally. The ball cannot stay down, on a putt and a chip may land and literally die on the spot. I played first thing on a Sunday and finished in 2.5 hours, so the pace was great, and if you don’t score your round and just want to play for fun it can be worth the $30. If you are serious about your play and get frustrated easily, don’t play this course. By the way, gopher hole on first green attached!

If you’re new or with new golfers, this is a non-intimidating experience. Good and seasoned golfers would recognize that it lacks in certain areas. But for newbies, good course.

20+ years ago this was my favorite executive course. Challenging and usually in excellent shape. I'm very happy it's open again. Tees and greens are in good shape. Bunker sand qualty is outstanding. Fairways are mediocre, and off the fairways it's mostly dirt, weeds, or clumps of grass. Water in the lakes is low, and some are ompletely dry. The design is still solid,and pace of play was wonderful. The pro shop is a tiny trailer. The saddest thing is that 90% of the trees are gone. Still, it's fun to play and a pretty good value!
