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.

The Middle holes

There is some quirkiness to the middle 6 holes if this course. But it is a super fun and challenging course. I try to play it 1 time each year.

Course Not At It’s Best

AZ summer conditions prevailed, leaving the course in a somewhat lesser state. Tees were needing TLC; fairways were sparse and needing attention; greens were fair; sand traps full. It being 111* with a strong breeze added to the challenges. Pace was very good. Still a good value.

Love Lookout

I only gave it a two star because yu charged me $25 to hve my own cart when the other third person in our group did not. It's 110 degrees out there. I did not want the body heat of someone else next to me to add to my discomfort. Besides thee was no shortage of carts available. This was a deal breaker. I won't be back.

Lookout is something to look forward to

The course layout is really good and the fees are reasonable.

The only drawbacks are no GPS on the carts and a below average practice facility
