The Arizona Grand Resort (formerly known as Phantom Horse Golf Club) boasts a challenging golf course, blending desert target golf with traditional links, playing par-71 over 6,336 yards, and a 7,000-square-foot practice green with a bunker and chipping area for a pre-round tune-up.

After a round at Arizona Grand Resort, head to an onsite drinking or dining spot: there's Mexican food, and then there's Southwestern dancing, and then there's a sports bar so you can catch up with someone else's game indoors or outdoors on the patio.

The Arizona Grand Resort also offers several packages, ranging from stay-and-play to family deals to getaways for women to romantic suite packages, complete with breakfast in bed.

Golden Hills Golf Club

Golf course was near empty. Pace of play was great...Finished in 3.25 hours.

Greens were quick and lacking grass. Lot's of bare areas on the greens. Fairways were plush but once of the fairway, grass was hard to find.

Outside services staff was extremely friendly while the pro shop staff left a little to be desired. Overall, I guess I would recommend this course to the part-time golfer. Advance handicap golfers will get bored.

Great I provement

Arizona Grand is our favourite course! We played this course last April (2025), and at that time we were disappointed with the poor course conditions. We decided to try it again this year and I am very happy we did! The course this year is in almost perfect condition. The only issue is the forward (red) tee boxes; many were humped in the center, making it difficult/impossible for my wife to find a flat tee-off spot. This was our last game before returning home to Toronto, but we will be back next year.

Az beauty

This course is amazing, a little challenging if you can’t hit the long ball. Lots of hills and water.

Had a great time and almost pared the back nine.

Fences

I play The Grand about 40 times a year and they have added these new fences that make it hard to get out on the course where you need too!

Playing blind

My first time, lots of blind shots, elevation changes made this very difficult, course book provided for free was helpful but very hard to pick clubs and hit landing areas. This slows down pace of play for resort guests unfamiliar with the course. Nothing you can do about it, it's a very tricky, challenging layout. Love to play it again.

Needs some work but has potential.

Negatives:

•Mounded & slanted tee boxes.

•Tee box were torn up. It was obvious they hadn’t been moved.

•Tee times are too close together. 8:15 tee time. 5.5 hour round.

•They have 1/2 of the fairways blocked off with rope & stakes.

•Overly sensitive gps on the carts.

Positives:

•Really cool layout with a couple of good views.

•Descent price but still not worth it with the conditions.

•It looks like they may start putting some money into the course. Saw some new flower beds around some of the tee boxes.

First Time

Really enjoyed the course holes offered multiple looks and club options. Open fairways, tight fairways, desert conditions and generous to tight greens. Putting surfaces could have been a bit quicker. Enjoyed the play, definitely worth playing again. Detroit, MI

Great track! Challenging all around.

This course is super challenging and a fun layout. Lots of memorable holes. Only downsides were the fast greens (on a weekend!) and the slow, inexperienced players in front of us. There was a ranger but it didn't seem to help much. Staff was professional and courteous. Had a fun time and would definitely play again!

Great Day of Golf

The course was well manicured, greens were in great shape and layout was good. Definitely playable and we didn’t lose many balls.
