Mountain Shadows Golf Course

Very nice par 3 course to hone the short irons. Thatch layer isn’t quite built up yet so greens are rock hard and fast as ice sheets. Incredible views in paradise valley.

Before the remodel it was my favorite executive course in the valley. Now I cannot recommend it. Perhaps, after the greens have matured, it will be good practice. Right now, the crews were already scalping and blowing grass and dust, and conditions were terrible.

The greens were rock hard. Fast is good, but hard, fast, and rough is not. The bunkers have good sand.

Unfortunately, the charm of the previous course has been lost. Now it is barren, and not even a pretty walk.

If you interested in giving the course a try, at least wait long enough for the overseeding to come in.

Beautiful scenic course. Great place to work on your short game but don"t be fooled, the greens are tricky.

First time playing since the re-design. No more par 4 holes which was nice. You'll get a great practice session with you mid & short irons.

This course couldn't have been in better shape. The fairways and greens were top notch.

My concern is that they made the course too easy. Very short 3''s, up to moderately long 3's. There are no par 4's on this course. For a change, I'll come back to this course, but I wish they had left it the way it was

Excellent course to sharpen short game skills. If you can play this course well then you can play almost any other longer course well. This is the first time I have played the re-designed course and while it is similar to the original course it is very well done. I would recommend this course to improve your short game before playing longer courses.

I enjoyed the previous layout, but the new design is very challenging and fun. Great place to work on your short game. The greens were a little fast for most pin placement on this day, but nobody said it would be easy. The sand used in the traps is like powdered sugar. The course was very well manicured, and you can't beat the views of Camelback Mountain!

The clubhouse facility was very modern, but not pretentious. Every staff member was extremely courteous and friendly.

Definitely looking forward to my next round here.

First of all my wife and I were impressed by how friendly everyone was! We hadn't played this course since it was redone, and kind of wish they had left it alone. However, we ended up having a great time on a well maintained course. A great way to work on your short game, and except for two holes with a confusing green layout it is well done. One last thing if you have never been there: look for a big white building while driving down the street and that is it. If you get lost like us ask a security guard at one of the gates.

Beautiful course. Greens in excellent shape. Tried course as I am rehabbing from knee replacement. As a par 3 course, it is somewhat challenging. Course has water and bunker hazards. Good for me, bunkers are not deep. What makes the course challenging for a par 3 are the greens which were not only fast but the actual hole sat on rolling greens which I found deceiving. Bottle water is provided. Playing again in a few days. Beautiful scenery. The water hazards contain blue water which I discovered keep down the algae but I also think it keeps birds and some insects at bay.

This course is a treat and not to be missed.

Anyone will tell you it's challenging, but the beauty and interesting course design makes it all worth it. I typically shoot about a 105. I once shot a 112 at SunRidge and just about called Sports Illustrated. The last holes, "The Wicked Six," are as the name implies, but beautiful, fun, and good exercise--four of them are uphill.

Another thing I love about this course is the golf carts. They have audio/visual, which really helps you play the hole. Small detail, but for this course, especially, super helpful. Also a great club house and fun happy hour scene. Outdoor patio has fabulous views, cafe lights, torchieres for colder days.

Enjoy your round at SunRidge!

Nice well maintained 18 hole par 3 course. Friendly staff. Will play again

I have a soft spot in my heart for short tracks, but this one was different. It has all the amenities and flash of a high-end resort property in Scottsdale, but with a short, fun, exciting par 3 course. The greens and their surrounds will give you some headaches, but in a good way. Because of the summer, the greens were slow, but they were true and rolled great. Looking forward to playing in season when they're slick - this course will give you everything you've got! Great staff, great outdoor bar, the best tee boxes I've seen in Phoenix, and you can buzz through in about 2 hours if you're taking your time. I loved it, and will absolutely be back!

This course was built the year I was born and is in amazing condition!! As a self-taught golfer, this course helps me improve!! I did par for times

Before its destruction, Mtn. Shadows was a beautiful scenic, somewhat quaint executive golf course. It had beautiful trees, grass, colorful bushes and it had "atmosphere." Whomever redesigned it as "Eco-friendly" certainly knew nothing about golf courses.Between the tee and the green are long yardages of gravel. The whole course looks drab. Oh, to give some challenge on about 4 or 5 of the holes, they added huge hills, just as if it previously were a dump and they had to hide the trash. This course had class. Years ago I was a member for 10 years. I will never go there again and am passing the word to everyone I know. and will try to erase this ugly memory from my mind.
