San Tan Highlands

The front 9 was in as bad of shape as I have seen this summer. Obviously it is tough during the Arizona summer, but I was shocked at what I saw. The gateways were about a 40/60 split on grass/mud.

The back 9 is a really fun layout and was in much better shape.

I played alone on the front and finished 9 in about 70 minutes. The back 9 took almost 2 1/2 hours.

The front 9 Fairways are a mess. They had more dead grass and bare spots than green grass. The Cart path concrete is un-even and broken up on many spots. By far the worst fairways I have ever seen. The back nine seems like a different course. Fairways were much better but still lots of bare spots and dead grass. The greens were well watered and played as expected. I expected much better conditions for $90 considering the top courses in Scottsdale are not much more than that this time of year.

I’m not sure how management can justify charging $78 for the course in the current shape that it is in. The front 9 fairways are 80% dirt, aim for the rough. Not worth paying more than $50 in these summer conditins

The fairways had recently been aerated so they're a bit of a mess right now the greens must have been aerated two weeks ago they were fuzzy and slow but that's to be expected. Staff was awesome very friendly. Practice area we were hitting off of Mats which were in good condition but would rather hit off grass of course.

No beverage cart to be seen during the 4-Hour and 20 minute round. Pace of play with slower than expected especially since this is the summer months.

My first time playing here now I know why it’s always so busy. Greens in good shape as well as the fairways. Staff very friendly and attentive made check in a breeze. Will definitely be back to play before summer ends.

Need Ranger to push pace of play. Group in front playing two balls. It’s too hot to lag pace of play. Some tee boxes uneven making it difficult to tee off. No ice in coolers no acceptable conditions for summer heat. No cart to refresh cold drinks.

Corse was kinda wet in a few holes but it’s always fun playing here.

So disappointed in the condition, don’t spend your money!

Played this course a lot, the greens were in terrible shape heavily sanded , bumpy . Couple that with excessive waiting at each hole , probably contributed to it being Father’s Day but over my worst experience at this course , normally very happy playing there

Greens recently punched, approach areas recently ripped.. look forward to playing it when it's in better condition. Very fun layout, Devils Drop is a fun one. Lots a scenic holes.

I’ve been playing golf in Arizona for 20 years and this is hands-down the most poorly managed golf course in the valley. Played with some friends this past Sunday on Father’s Day and was a 5.5 hour round. On the third hole, we noticed there were eight people on the green two groups ahead of us, which then started a significant slower pace of play. On the fifth hole, the pro shop was notified who then sent somebody out there to address the situation and apparently they split them up. There was another significant slow down at the turn and we noticed the same two groups rejoined on 11. Called the pro shop again, who made contact with us and indicate that he wishes there was something more he could do about the situation. Oh and it was $80 to play. This course is maybe a $40 track in the summer. No starter or ranger at all. With all of the golf courses in Arizona to choose from I wouldn’t even have this in consideration.

Usually really like the course, but no mention of all fairways being under construction or mention of greens being covered in sand! I understand it’s summer and course repairs happen, but cant charge like course is in good conditions for a course under major maintenance.

Could only play the Front Nine. Back Nine is why I like this course. The course Ranger was indifferent this time. Young kid seemed more interested in his phone than providing any communication. We ended up starting on our own because he was nowhere to be found. Oh well. We played.
