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.

Pace of play on weekends not worth it

2 hours and 45 minutes to play 9 holes. Greens and fairways not in good condition and didn’t see the cart girl until hole 7. Maybe worth it on the weekday but don’t go on a weekend.

A great day for golf

The course was in really good shape overall. The greens were rolling nicely. The weather was 75 degrees which was really odd for this time of year. I was paired up with a very nice man who just moved here from San Diego. I got to share my knowledge of the course with him. I just wished I played better.

Fantastic course, great people

So many fun holes with elevations, desert and plenty of traps. Course is always in perfect condition (a few greens have minor issues) and the staff is friendly. I play here a few times each visit (have to check for favorable pricing) and often do a same day replay.

On 17 and 18 play the elevated tees (typically roped off but no one cares) for some stunning views. GPS and club cleaner on each cart.

They have a nice discount at the restaurant after play.

Nothing special. Many better options

I rarely play here and decided to give it a try again for the forest time in years. It’s a resort but the course is much more like a basic public course. The lack of a driving range is always an issue and the layout isn’t great. I’m would rather just have play Ahwatukee Golf Club next time. Too many great course close and that’s why they always have available tee times.

Gimmicky course in poor shape

The good: staff was super attentive and friendly

The bad: pace of play was slow, almost 6 hours for 18 holes.

The ugly: course was in terrible shape, fairways had lots of dead grass and bare spots. They’re trying to do some repairs with sod replacement, but overall shape was pretty poor.

Great course / layout - show up early on the weekends

Great course and great layout. I have played it many times and it’s a load of fun.

My only advice is to be sure to show up 30-45 minutes early, the course will sometimes move up your tee time without notification. This happened to me and we missed the first hole.

Love this course

Great course. Friendly beverage cart and it was around a lot. I left my bluetooth speaker on the course and trying to retrieve. The ranger was very odd and pushing us to finish fast even though we had groups in front of us that we were waiting on all day

Back nine beautiful

The staff was extremely friendly, except for the lady working in the Pro Shop acting like she didn’t wanna be there. The greens on the front nine were not in great shape. But the rest of the course was great.

First Time Playing

Trying something new

This first time experience started rocky. I lost two new golf balls in the first three hole. But I hooked up with two local golfers and things got better. It's best to join up with someone who knows the course and get advice. I had a much better round of golf with their assistance.

Arizona Grand was Fun

Played this course last year and it is as good as ever. Fairways were in good shape, greens also. Staff were very friendly and helpful. I will play again.
