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.

One of the best layouts but….

The pace of play makes it unbearable. The greens look like 30-year-old turf. They might be some of the worst in the state. And for that price, totally not worth it. We will never play here until those things are taken care of. Very unfortunate because the layout is fun and extremely challenging. With some beautiful views. The front nine and the back nine play like two totally different courses.

Great track

Staff was fantastic, pace of play great and conditions were awesome. Great views on some of the back 9 holes and a few really picturesque par 3s. Would return and would recommend to a friend.

Best fairways

We all were happy with the course and staff at this place and being seniors the white tee was good for length. We were hit up upon but lots of blind shots at this course. Follow the GPS instructions and no problem. Cheers were going to play it again now knowing where the water is etc..

Arizona Grand course is beautiful

I loved this course. Beautiful course. Many reviews said challenging but I found it just right. Resort property is swanky! Very nice. Slow play started on the back 9. Otherwise 5 stars.

Beautiful and varied course

Really fun and beautiful course, two very different nines with both resort and desert feels. Very friendly and professional staff, good value for the price except no good practice areas.

Bummer

Did not know it was listed as temporary greens. I believe that 50% of the greens are either bare, growing crab grass or weed and being treated. I suggest you check with the clubhouse on the green conditions. everywhere else on the course looked good.

Disgraceful

don’t play here. greens aren’t overseeded and there’s WEEDS all over them. tee boxes are a disaster. pace of play sucks. $11 for a miller lite. absolute joke of an experience and shameful greed from management. this place used to be pretty good but it’s awful now. shame on the GM whoever that is. a pathetic display of greed. cool for you golf is popular and you can take advantage of customers to pad your pocket. what a joke.

Great Round!

I always enjoy Arizona Grand. Overall great conditions, but the greens were a bit bumpy and faster than usual.

There's always a bunch of goose poop on holes 2-4.

I went out as a single @ 7:15 am and caught up to a 4-some the 3rd tee box and then a 2-some on hole 10.

I'm a 13 handicapl and I shot +8 (so a great day for me) and even better, it only took 2:15 for the round!!!

Great course and we will play again. Very friendly staff. The condition of the course was unremarkable. Use the GPS as it shows all obstacles. Enjoy 😊

Needs work

Have always loved playing here until this time.

The greens were terrible. Wasn't told this when we booked or when we checked in. When asked after done playing what happened to the greens was told they have a virus and that they need to dig them up and build new greens. Additionally, the marshall started hounding us on the 4th hole telling us we were 2 holes behind and we needed to pick up pace of play. He came by 3 holes later and told us the same thing. We finished the front 9 in under 2 hours and completed 18 holes in under 4 hours. For goodness sake, were we supposed to run? The marshall and the conditions of the course did not make for a fun day. Please do better Arizona Grand.

Course had no rangers out during our round. One of our foursome was bitten by a dog on the 6th hole. Course has no signs telling residents that course is for golfers only. Security came out and took statement on incident and comped the round for player bitten, but did nothing for the rest of the foursome as we had to stop play for 45 minutes to deal with security. Declined to file police report due to being on vacation and the time it would have taken as we had a 2nd tee time. If they want to treat the course as a resort, they need to be more proactive on trespassing by others and their pets.
