Great course, just missing a Bev cart

Easy access to water on every par 3, there are some rough spots that need a little extra care. Besides the fact there is no beverage cart (not a big deal) the course is amazing. Beautiful greens rolling real fast. I highly recommend not missing a fairway! Pace was great, not a lot of wait times as a two man behind multiple 4s

Solid Course & Conditions

Had a good round this past Friday at the Foothills golf club.

Staff is always on point and super courteous. Of course has come a long way over the last year and a half and very much improved.

Very good pace of play for Friday morning and course was in pretty good condition all around even considering the heat the last couple of weeks. Keep up the good work guys!

Solid course

Great course with some length and hazards well placed. Greens need a lot of work as they all have a ton of sand on them, especially on the front nine near the cups - putting was brutal with sand hills on greens. Tee boxes are very average but fairways are very nice. Great staff, snack bar, grille and views.

Welcoming from start to finish

I have played a few courses around the area and found this to be high value for money. The staff are welcoming and helpful. The course and range were well maintained and enjoyable to play. I highly recommend a visit.

Slow Pace

I like this course but the two times I have played it so far have had slow pace, 4:40 yesterday. Also the bunkers look like they are hardly ever raked. There is sand but it’s crusty.

The Foothills Golf Club

Second time playing this course. Enjoyed both of the a great deal. Upon arrival the staff greeted us at our vehicle and helped with our clubs. The Pro shop stag was equally friendly. Purchased our range ball’s and went to the range. Not a fan of hitting off the mats. Not the only course that does this. Extremely small chipping green but other than that it was fine. Staff was still very friendly. Headed to the starter, who made sure we had plenty of water. He checked on us at the turn as well. Was very impressed. The course was in great shape and pace was spot on. Would highly recommend this course. Enjoy

Way better than it was

The staff - excellent, friendly and helpful

The amenities - playing on a weekend, you expect the water coolers to be full and snack bar opened. Some were empty and at the turn, everything was closed.

The course - I’ve played here for a decade and this is the best shape it’s ever been in. Is it perfect yet? No, but for the price, I’d play here 3 times before I’d pay $300 to play in Scottsdale for a 5 1/2 hour round

To the course, keep up the great work and this place will be one of the best in the south valley.

Foothills is a good value

Foothills has always been a little rough around the edges, but not in important places. The greens and fairways are in good shape. It has a nice layout. The staff members are always pleasant and helpful. A special shout out to Jonesie a Marshall who rescued the wedges my husband left at the practice facility and brought them to us on the course. Thank you!

Greens very inconsistent

Never know what you get when you play this course. This time, the greens were very inconsistent, some fast, some slow???? Not in great shape.

Nice Course

First time playing here and I really enjoyed it. Staff was friendly. Conditions were generally very good, although a few of the greens had some spotty missing grass but not near hole locations. Greens were a bit bumpy. I will definitely be back.
