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.

Excellent

Been playing a different course each day and this is in my top 3 - greens A+, fairways A, bunkers B+ (only because a couple green side bunkers were fairly compact).

Highly recommend and worth a play!!!!

Staff Over the Top

As a first timer here, it was a little complicated with the physical separation of starter and golf shop/golf cart station. Otherwise I thought the entire experience was great. Especially the staff who were first rate and wonderful ambassadors for Lone Mountain!

Forgiving golf

A course that’s thoroughly enjoyable with a forgiving layout and beautiful views.

Our only complaint was the back up on every hole after the first four.

I’d still play here again

Lookout below!!

Had a great time on this course! Awesome layout, challenging but playable, elevation changes, an extra par 5, and winds all around moon valley. Grass and greens are in great shape. Won't hesitate to play again when another deal pops up.

Good course if you’re an above average golfer

Course was in good condition. It’s a very challenging course for an average golfer. We’ve played here annually for 10+ years and enjoyed the course, but this year the rangers said our pace of play was behind schedule. We felt more pressure from the rangers than past years and it wasn’t as enjoyable. We even let a couple of groups play through that had 2-3 golfers.

Great course!

Very well maintained course. Nice views and great course layout. Friendly staff and pace of play is just right. You can easily loose a ball if you don’t stay in the fairways. Lots of desert areas to work around, for this is like a target course where you definitely need to pick a spot where you want to land your ball, or it will be on the rough part of the desert. So bring extra balls just in case. Don’t forget to take pictures on the back 9 when you stop for drinks and foods and for rest room breaks, for this is the spot for that, and teeing off from that hill, for I think it’s the best view you can ever see from that course. Tees and markers are just a grab from the check point area as well. Tee time was 1:10 and finish just in time before it gets dark in wintertime. Definitely playing here again. Just check Golfnow for hot deals.
