Lookout Mountain Golf Club at Pointe Hilton Tapatio Cliffs Resort receives distinctions: Golf Digest placed it among the top 450 U.S. public courses, and it regularly features among Arizona's best 25 golf course. It doesn't hurt that the golf club regularly hosts eye-catching affairs like the Harmon Killebrew Invitational, the Royce Clayton Charity Classic and the Phoenix Suns Scramble. The golf course itself offers lush greens that entwine with the Sonora Desert's terrain, which the golf club says it carefully preserves, and features 18 holes of championship golf in tandem with magnificent scenery and plenty of challenges.

There's a fairly good chance that golfers will catch sight of a quail or coyote out on the Lookout Mountain Golf Club at Pointe Hilton Tapatio Cliffs Resort, and management asks that layers give the critters the right of way. In order to ensure golfers' shots go straight and don't snag in a cactus or chuckwalla, the club offers both individual and group glf lessons. This is also a place to enroll in the Hilton Golf Academy.

That's before the round at the Lookout Mountain Golf Club, though: Afterward, mosey on back to the 19th hole, called the Pointe In Tyme, for the drinkables and eatables.

Great Find

I played here because of a good rating and time on GolfNow, I had previously never heard of this course. What a pleasant surprise! After a confusing start (the Pro Shop is not adjacent to the starter's shack, or the first tee) what a great golf course. Very playable, challenging and fun. Great conditions, I used almost every club in the bag. The greens were in great shape, the fairways and teeing grounds were also very good. The greenside bunkers were inconsistent, some had nice sand and some almost nearly no sand. One note of interest, this would not be an enjoyable walk, lots of long treks between greens and the next tee. There are also some huge elevation changes - hence the name! Enjoy, I will return!

Scenic

My wife loved the course. I did not like the holes lined with houses. Very tight with some confusing landing areas.

Expensive for cart path only

Price should be reduced do to it being cart path only. It takes much longer to play with cart path only. It should at least institute 90 degree rule instead of cart path only. If the course is open to play let the carts on the fairway.
