Papago Golf Club

greens great...fairways great... would play again and highly recommend..Do need ranger for pace of play and helping keep carts from being taken in places they shouldnt be....

The golf staff as well as the food and beverage staff were exceptional. The fact that this is a municipal golf course and there is no clubhouse make this course very average. Course itself has a municipal feel. Some of the previous reviews which lead me to play the course were just a little misleading.

... Great and challenging course. Wish we had some form of printed layout as we had to play blind the entire day. Our cart did not have any indicators whatsoever. Bummer. Then they had the nerve to try and charge $7.00 for a course guide.really? Will not go back because of this kind of indifference. Course is first rate however.

A decent course for the money in the area. Pace of play was fine on a weekday. Greens were in good condition. I used it as a warm up to play other more expensive courses in the area while on vacation. I would probably play there again.

It's a shame the bunkers are so terrible when the rest of the course is of such good quality. When the traps are such an intregal part of the design feature, you would think that there would be enough pride to have sand in them.

Course was in good condition and the greens provided a great challenge.

papago had a good variety of holes which required some thought where strategy was concerned
par 3's are long
large greens that rolled true
I would definitely play this course again

Nice area and course but spacing of groups was poor. To have to wait on EVERY shot at least 5 minutes really made it hard to get in a groove and shoot a good round.

My manager from Indiana joined me for this course. We had an excellent time on a beautiful course. He especially loved the scenery.

Course flowed well and groups were scheduled where we didn't feel pressured on either side.

The drink cart came around very regular and the young lady was very pleasant.

A great day all around.

Great course that we will go back to each time we are in Phoenix. One of the best municipal courses we have played and a test of your golf skills. Best on course washrooms we have ever seen and the only one with an ice/water machine. Basic club house/proshop but it is the course you will want to play.

The course was quite challenging with the blind dog legs and narrow approaches on some of the holes. Sand traps were plentiful but the sand itself was hard consistency.
The course has several concrete cart paths to get you started on the right path but after that there are no defined pathways. The scenery is beautiful. The greens were large and undulating and in perfect condition. Pin placements were challenging.

Great test of your golf game with many great holes very nice on. Course facilities

Can't go wrong with playing this course on a trip to Phoenix. Unbeatable value. Well maintained, challenging course especially from the tips. I like that it doesn't go in between houses or communities. Walkable.

Break out the driver and have fun. Lots of room for error here. Its hard to lose a golf ball. Greens are undulating and well kept. Club house leaves a lot to be desired as it is essentially a trailer. Played on a weekday, so pace of play was not an issue.

The fairways were great as were the greens, but that is where it ended. The clubhouse is a trailer, and they stack the tee times too close. We waited on every hole, which is unacceptable. It is an easy solution but one that would affect revenue, so they just expect you to wait.

Played early to catch an early flight. Our group of 12 selected the course to be close to the airport for a early flight. That is the only good thing about the course. The club house is a mobile home. The staff had torn pants, tee shirt and untied shoes. The course was OK if you were on the green, but the rough was just gravel. Pace of play was good (about 4 hours). Overall it does not compare to any Troon course.

Really enjoyed the round of golf at Papago. The course was in great shape and the greens rolled as nice as any i played in PHX.

Will be back next winter!

Well maintained, beautiful setting, challenging course in excellent condition for a public course and an good value.

Friendly staff,course in great condition. Use every club and wish you had some more. Superb scenery on every hole. Great value.

was very disappointed in club house and food services. we played wigwam the day before way better for less money.
