Palm at McCormick Ranch Golf Club
About
McCormick Ranch Golf Club features two lush manicured year-round courses amid the lovely views of Scottsdale. Both the Palm and Pine golf courses' championship tees lay to over 7,000 yards, and there are also the options of men's, seniors' and ladies' tee sets to allow everyone a crack at the tests offered by these golf courses.
Golf Illustrated selected the ninth hole of the Palm Course at the McCormick Ranch Golf Club to be "One of the USA's Top 18 Water Holes." It's just one of 10 water holes on the golf course, which, as you might imagine, also features lots of big palms. In all, the golf course plays to over yards from the blue tees, including four par-5 holes that measure over 500 yards.
A round of golf on the Palm Course at the McCormick Ranch Golf Club kicks off on the par-4 first hole, which plays close to 400 yards from the blue tee and requires a drive right-center to ensure a short-iron second shot.

Golfer Reviews
Beautiful course
Friendly staff, beautiful course, great condition, fast greens. Would golf it again and recommend this course
Played the palms
Started at 3
Was able to get 18 holes in fast pace not too hard
The first 9 was nicer the the last 9
Friendly staff but condition of the course is awful. Over watered, pothole filled cart paths, sewage small by standing water
Mccormick Ranch
Had an excellent time. Course was in great condition and fairly challenging. Late afternoon tee time and was able to finish before dark.
What a joke
Went with my dad and brother. They said I needed to pay $35 otherwise I had to ride with the other solo in the same cart. Went to pay and it was $50 for a cart. WHAT A JOKE!! They had PLENTY of carts open too lol. What are they charging me $50 for...the outlit for the cart? I mean really? Course was in good shape, cart girls were amazing, but will not be golfing/recommending anyone back to here for that simple reason. I'm 26 years old who is paying $110 to begin with and to be charged with $50 to ride in my own cart, rather than with a random older guy who wouldn't want to ride with me or anyone to begin with, is crazy.
Overall condition
The overall condition was much better than I expected for the 100+ weather. Actually, it was excellent. My only recommendation would be to have more sand in the traps, unless this is by design to keep the pace of play flowing.
Nice course and a friendly staff
I enjoyed playing McCormick Ranch. We played the back 9 of the Palm and Pine courses. Both were challenging with several water hazards and bunkers. My only complaint, and this to be at about every course I play at this time of the year in Arizona, is that the bunkers are mostly wet and there are puddles in the bunkers and around the courses. Being that water is a hot commodity in Arizona, I wonder why they don’t address this.
I will definitely come back and hopefully play the front 9’s of these great courses.
Way overpriced
Booked through GOLFNOW at last minute and I understand why it was only course with available tee times in the morning. $170 for mediocre course is crazy. I would not recommend unless you find a deal under $60.
Complete dog Sh!!
For $150, this is BY FAR the worst course in Scottsdale.
Great location.. bad golf
Ive wanted this course to be better for decades. Somehow its still dryed out and soaking wet at the same time! the sand is flooded with old water and yet cracked like an old lake bed.. that shows how many times its been filled with water, let sit, then not maintained.
The course has a distinct smell that one could describe as not just my golf game stinking.
The potential is there but the maintenance has never kept up with it.
Tried it again after several years and its like i never left. Its a pass at 57 a round and a do not play for winter rates..
Good round
The course got hit with some crazy storm as they had many trees down. Because of this we have to play the back 9 of the palms and the back 9 of the pine courses, which was fine. I thought the course was in fine shape for the dead of summer. The staff a McCormick is always not the friendliest compared to other courses, but they had a beverage cart running all round.
