Palm at McCormick Ranch Golf Club

Played Palm course and it was very tired. Greens were not in bad shape, but rest of course especially back nine was horrible. Pace of play was very bad as well took over 4:45 to play.

Not worth the money not matter how much you pay. Take your life in your hands on the first tee as no fencing between that and the driving range. Restrooms on the course were dirty and run down.

Course was in decent condition. Pace of play was >4hrs for 18. Slow for not being that busy. Club House and Proshop above average. Friendly staff, sub par rental clubs comparatively to greens fees. Wouldn’t pay more than $100 to play again. Many other options in the area.

We played the Palm course. The staff in the pro shop were not friendly and other players were discussing it as well. On hole 2 as I was teeing off from the red Tees a ball from the driving range just missed me. The website brags about the course but honestly we played nicer courses for 1/2 the price.

The starter was very friendly. We were paired up with a very nice young couple which made the round enjoyable! It appears as this course is more geared for tournament play with little effort into upkeep of the course.

There are many BARE spots on the course and many with no grass at all. For the price we paid I wish I had known. Greens were OKbut some silly pin placements make it not enjoyable.

Not coming back,

Palms front 9 beautiful. Grass is perfect. Staff was super nice. Lots of Water.

The course was great, staff is friendly, and the course is challenging. Multiple holes surrounded by sand traps, swamps/water and makes it difficult to get on without under or over shooting. Great time, would recommend.

The staff here is dishonest and crooked. There was a storm in the area, and at the turn we were encouraged to leave under the PROMISE from the staff that we would be credited for a tee time in the near future. We never would have left unless they assured us this was the case. Then we emailed them to make good on the credit, and they played dumb, citing cliches about golf being an outdoor sport.

The problem isn’t the weather or the policies. If that was the case, don’t encourage people to leave by promising them a credit you don’t plan to make good on.

Course was inGreat shape and very playable, making for a great experience. Played in about 4 hours with hardly ever a wait.

Went on a golf trip with 20 guys, all of which flew across the country to enjoy all the great courses Scottsdale has to offer.

McCormick Ranch was by far the biggest disappointment and it wasn’t even close.

It poured rain for 2 hours. It happens. Standing water everywhere, course was unplayable. We kindly asked the staff for a refund and/or rain check and were very rudely talked down to by the staff.

Jim in particular was especially condescending and kept saying he has “his private owner he needs to keep happy”. Apparently they forgot that without customer their course doesn’t exist.

Worst of all they charged the card on file 72 hours in advance which is an outrageous policy to have. This should have been a red flag from the start.

Give you business to courses who respect their customer, not this joke of a course.

The staff wss friendly and course was in nice condition, tees and fairways were well maintained and the greens were smooth. The bunkers could use some work, but overall the course was in nice shape.

Weather came on after we finished 9 holes. It was thundering & lightning. We decided to quit then & asked for a 9 holes credit.. We were told by the pro shop to call the manager to see about a credit. We called the manager & he told us no he wouldn't give us a credit! . ..We won't play here again. Is it that hard to give a 9 hole credit when we had already payed the full price for 18 holes??

It was a little wet and soggy due to rain. Surprised there weren’t water bottles in the cart. Being in Scottsdale and at that price, water bottles should be a no brainer.

Though should be in prime condition in March, grass growth very poor throughout course. On course signage poor. Practice green dead spots. Driving range mats are good but can't use tees in mats very effectively. Should supply tees as they travel out on to forward tee area and can't get yours back with out dodging other players hitting.

Low areas very wet and poor grass growth. Place has been neglected; cart paths/buildings/course. Went in on a Sat at 3:15PM for meal and kitchen closes at 3PM on a Sat????? Way to expensive for value .....
