Lookout Mountain Golf Club
About
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.

Fun Course!
Played this course yesterday afternoon and it is always a treat! This is such a fun course in the area I highly recommend to anyone!
Challenging yet enjoyable for high handicapers
Nice layout, a couple of very challenging holes where distance off tee is most important. great views
I will be back
I would definitely recommend this course. The layout was challenging yet friendly. Very scenic both fairways and greens are in great shape.
Slow play
I have played here often but this time the course could be in better shape at the tee box's and on the fairways. The pace of play was unbelievable literally 2 foursome waiting to tee off because one group does not know how to keep pace of play. Need golf Marshall's.
Really like this course!
The course is in great shape!
I like the way it starts out gradually and gets more challenging as you go. Holes 8 through 16 all have twists and turns to consider with lots of risk-return trade offs! difficult but fair!
The staff are all very friendly and pleasant.
This is one of my favorite courses!
Time to Renovate
Have played this course many times over the last 20 years. It is a unusual quirky layout, with large elevation changes, and some dramatic twists and turns. If the conditions are well maintained with enough rough along the fairway edges to stop a slow rolling ball it can be a fun interesting track. However, the site lines are now somewhat diminished, and they are mowing the edges very tight, so even a well struck shot landing in the middle of the fairway still has a good chance of rolling into the dessert on certain holes. This course was way more fun and fair years ago before Troon took over. Some of the tee box areas are very run down and even dangerous to walk up and down, huge loose rocks and holes. On one short par 3 there was a water valve cap missing in the middle of the cart path right next to the men’s path to the shared tee, could easily break a leg or ankle getting in or out of your cart. There was a ranger parked on this hole and we mentioned it to him, his response was that maintenance will get to it. He should have handled it immediately , by placing a cone or driving up the cart path and grabbing another valve cap from a more remote area, we passed 3 valve cap covers on the way up the hill to the next tee.
In summary this course is fun but it really needs a renovation, things are kind of edgy and not in good shape. And mowing the edges tight really changes the whole playability.
Lots of potential but course conditions, playability and safety issues are really disappointing. Troon corporate needs to visit and evaluate the situation.
This was my last time playing this course, it’s off the list. Too bad !
Self
Course was good but I had troubles. Ran low on balls. Got a little tired.
Great course anyone would enjoy.
Course was well maintained. Very challenging but offered a lot of risk/reward shots. Would definitely come back and play again.
Incredible course
If you haven’t played this course before, you must try this course. This is a great course.
I have played this course quite a few times over the years. I find this course to be a delightful challenge. The course is maintained extremely well. I wish they hadn’t removed the water hazards, but left some good ones. I truly love this course, and have fun even when I’m not playing up to par.
