About
San Tan Highlands (formerly known as The Golf Club at Johnson Ranch) boasts a championship course with a front nine that winds through the Sonoran desert and a back nine that finishes at the base of the bordering San Tan Mountains. Naturally, the first half of the golf course is relatively flat and the latter half has a hilly terrain. In contrast to its categorization as a desert course, this course has grass from the tees to the greens but the cactus-filled landscape definitely implies desert. The greens are quite large and undulating and the fairways are fairly open with generous landing areas. Strategically placed sand bunkers and water hazards come into play throughout the San Tan Highlands.

Great scenery Photo submitted by Shypoke55 on 04/13/2013
We love this course!
The front 9 is not the best but the back 9 is beautiful. We love this course and always have a great time.
Condition going down
The greens were in good shape, fairways really showing some brown areas and tee boxes were quite mixed. The driving range area for hitting was terrible. The amenities were okay but some obvious omissions (eg. the water bucket on tee box 1 was completely dry). The course has a nice layout and is good to play but the level of condition and some services have deteriorated lately.
Windy day
The course was in real good shape. Tee boxes fairways and greens good condition. Very friendly staff. No complaints.
Overpriced dust fest
Conditions are bad. Dry and dead spots in fairways. Bunkers are good, greens are ok on half the holes but bumpy and overplayed with no TLC as of late.
Paid 115 for tee time, round took 4:37 minutes. They are letting 9 hole guests tee off on the back 9 in the middle of our 18 hole rounds and it backed up for 15 minutes on 10 with 5 groups on the hole at once.
Charged 18 bucks for a double jack and coke. I can buy a bottle of jack for 20. And they charged for range balls.
Go to poston butte instead.
2-24-2025
Played on 2-24-2025. Half the tee boxes, fairways and greens were a bit hard. Carts were very clean. Outside staff Ken Henry was very helpful and professional. Would like to see if the management would start giving a veterans discount.
Pricey
For the price the course is starting to get in poor condition. Quite a few of the greens are getting burnt or desiesed. A lot of the fairway are burt or dried out. For the price you would think the course would be in better shape.
