Mountain Shadows Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
The executive golf course at Mountain Shadows Golf Club in addition to being an excellent course has the added benefit of having a picturesque location nestled in the foothills of Camelback Mountain, and it also offers views of the equally majestic Mummy Mountains. The oleanders and palm trees sprinkled throughout the course enhance the pleasant atmosphere. The golf course's 18th hole boasts beautiful views of the sunset during the twilight hours but the signature hole is the par-3 12th hole. It plays uphill toward Camelback Mountain and over a pond and brook to a double-tiered green that is well protected by bunkers.

Fun short course with tough greens
Bring your best putting game! Very friendly staff.
What an amazing transformation
We were blown away at the changes, it is beautiful. We did have trouble finding the course with all the new admissions to the resort areas. Finally spoke with gate attendant....found small sign to get to the course.
Staff are the best, carts are excellent. The course is manicured perfectly. Really enjoyed golfing at Mountain Shadows once more
Thank you for joining us. We strive to be friendly and helpful with great course conditions. We are on the west side of the brand new Mountain Shadows hotel. And the best views in town.
Always a Good Tuneup Venue
The Short Course is just that, with only par 3s - a change from years past. The course plays shorter and easier, the result of development in the area, but it's no pushover. The greens are tricky, with lots of slope, and the rough (at least in November) is lush and thick. Indeed, anything on the green is no guarantee of par.
Pace can be an issue - I was behind a slow couple and lost an hour overall waiting on them on every hole.
Thank you for the feedback. We're a fun, fast round with interesting greens and great view. Typical rounds are 2.5 to 3 hours max. Still much quicker than a regulation course.
Fun course!
Short course was in great shape and I was impressed with the fast play. All holes were par 3 and with the undulating greens presented a very pleasant challenge! Had so much fun we played 36 holes in just about 31/2 hrs!
Thank you for the 5 start review.
I felt scammed. There was insufficient notice that this was a par 3 course!!! Only the word "executive" which I didn't see. You should have more prominent wording
We describe the course with the word executive, Par 54, and our yardage of a 2,310 yard course. We're a fun, fast course with the best view in town. Plenty of challenge and you can finish in 2.5 hours.
Hit my first hole in one on the 14th.
Of course I love this course
Congrats on the ace! We hope to see you again soon.
Great Fun!
The course is a lot of fun...the views are great and the staff are absolutely a joy to be around. The short course, with betting hole 17 1/2 is a great wedge and short iron test. The greens weren't great coming out of overseed but I've played here before when they're fantastic. Food is really good and the entire property is wonderful!
Thank you for the great review. The greens have improved coming out of overseeding. Enjoy our fun, fast round, our great view and cool setting for a lunch and a drink.
The best birthday round of golf ever!
The best birthday round of golf ever! In years past I would play The old course once a week. During the interim I’ve had many surgeries and am now getting back into the game. This course has changed in so many ways I can’t count them, it is nothing short of fabulous. It’s an entirely new course although a short par three , It has many challenges, enjoyable challenges with the same wonderful views. I can’t wait to get back !
Thank you for spending your birthday with us and look forward to your next visit. The course has been updated with some great changes. We strive to be a fun, fast round with great views of Camelback.
GREAT DAY
GREAT DAY. WEATHER, COURSE AND STAFF WERE EXCELLENT.
Thank you for the 5 Star Review. We hope to see you again soon.
Nicely Renovated
This was our first time playing Mountain shadows since it’s a big renovation. The golf shop a great staff are wonderful and it’s fun to have an 18 hole three parcourse to work on our irons and short woods. Course was a bit dry and may be due to upcoming reseeding. Lots of mounds but made it fun. Got a Golf Now hot deal which really made experience great.
Thank you for the great review. We are a fun, fast, round with a great view of Camelback Mountain. Overseeding is done and looking beautiful.
Beautiful scenery and friendly staff
We got a great rate through Golf Now and played 18 holes in about 2 1:2 hours. The staff was very friendly and the golf course was in great shape. You can’t find another course that offers the fantastic views of Camelback Mountain! The food at Thr Hearth was delicious!! We will be back!
Beautiful Course
The staff was very friendly and took the time to talk to us. Encouraged us to take a walk around the hotel to see what is available. The resort is very nice as well as the course. The course is all par 3. Situated north of Camelback mountain with beautiful views. The cart girl was around 3 times and provided cups of ice for the water bottles that were provided for us in the cooler. Will play this course again.
