Great overall but at peak season, snack bar was closed.

Had to go off property for a hot dog. Very poor.

Great Price

Considering the price to golf in Phoenix during the prime time “winter months” it’s definitely worth golfing at Paradise valley golf course. $33.00 Can’t get any better than that.

Great Value for the Average Golfer!

I love this little course. And that's "little" as in relatively short which suits my game just fine. It's well layed out and reasonably well kept. I enjoy it often!

Well priced. Fast round.

It was not busy on a fairly cold day, so we moved around the course in less than 2 1/2 hours.

Many wet and muddy areas after rainy days.

Good value.

PV Municipal, great value

The course is a muni and it was $22.00 for 9 holes. Peak season in AZ, that’s amazing value.

The course was in good condition, outside of the fairways and green can be a bit rough with some patches of dirt but overall it’s worth playing.

The older guy in the pro shop is a bit cranky and more interested in watching football but that’s about the same as the Gen Z and their TikTok videos.

Lovely Gentleman

There was a lovely gentleman maybe named Ron? We played at 2:30 pm. He noticed I was sunburned and offered me his personal sun screen lotion. Friendly and so kind. A prize employee. The coyote was a bit creepy but seemed friendly enough

Good for the Money

It was a reasonable rate to play and rent clubs. However, i can understand why people said the rough was bad. Course could use a few improvements, too much scorched earth to try and hit a ball off
