Mountain Shadows Golf Course

Mountain Shadows used to be an executive course. I'm not sure what it would be called now except very short . none of the holes were long and there wetre way too many that were 50,60, 70 yards for the front tees. Some of the greens were very challenging.The staff were all very nice. Not my kind of course any more though.

First time playing here since course was closed for a major remodel. They did an excellent job. Friendly staff. Great short game tuneup on this all par 3 executive short course.

Course is well maintained. Pace of play was great no waiting between holes. Staff were very attentive and friendly. Beautiful surroundings and they did a great on re-designing the course

Disappointed. The only challenging holes had gimmicky greens. We ended up skipping some holes near the end because it didn't seem to be worth the effort.

Was thoroughly disappointed in the whole course--layout, condition of the greens, the so-called improvements, the reverse green etc etc! The course was much prettier 4 years ago! I have canvas prints made from snapshots on my wall to prove it! Also there was an awful sewer smell where the bag drop was located.

Par 3 golf is fun to play. Played course in 2.5 hours.

Distance between holes 17 and 18 is too far when you are walking. Houses take priority over golf design.

I absolutely love the new design. The new owners did a great job of mixing new modern design with classic Mt. Shadows golf.

The Pro-shop is fantastic and the views can't be beat. Great test of skill as most of the greens, being their only real defense, were very undulated. Not ll, as it is a good mix of challenge and fairness.

I don't understand who couldn't love this track. It is a refreshing change of pace from the "normal" courses. A great, quick break from the "norm".

Golf staff were great, Rusty's (I believe that was the name) was a great place to catch the sunset and have some cocktails.

It did help that I was able to even out the bet on a "press" on the wager hole, which was a pleasant design and a great concept.

Do listen to the "old school" people, this is a new and refreshing change to the sport and the lifestyle!

Enjoyed the old course much more didn't care for all par 3 holes and pro shop too modern looking like the old one better . I tried the new course but won't return. Good luck

This newly opened renovation is trying to hard to be unique. Way too many gimicky greens... miniature golf stuff.

Holes 13 and 14 share a green with 14 hitting backwards... weird!

The greens are new so I guess you can forgive the terrible shape they were in. The best green was the silky wager green between 17&18. All the others were bumpy and impossible to read.

Overpriced for two at $100. No reason to return.

Great spot to hone your skills, don't be fooled thinking this is an amateur course as it's challenging. Tough pin placements and you can get in trouble quick if you miss a shot. Love this course and it will be on my regular list to hone my short game.

The redesigned course destroyed the original Mountain Shadows course. They replaced the fairways with gravel leaving only the tee boxes and around the greens with grass. Being the redesigned course is new, the greens are very slow and bumpy the little grass left around the greens is lumpy. I would not recommend to anyone to play this course for at least another year.

Really had an enjoyable round on this new course! Nice to be able to complete 18 holes in about 2.5 hours. Great layout and plenty of challenges. Staff was fantastic and pre and post time spent at Rusty's Bar and looking around this new property added to the great day. Will certainly be back soon and let everyone know of this little jewel in the desert.

This was my first time playing mountain shadows after the renovation. Didn't have much expectations going in but overall it was a very disappointing experience. Staff was extremely aggressive when I first arrived, the old lady at the front desk was rude when I asked if there was a discounted rate for people who live in the community. Greens were in terrible condition and the overall design of the course was overkill. I get they try to make it a quirky par 3 course but they tried way too hard with the layout and slopes of the greens. Not worth $60! Even for a so called "resort course". The only bright spot of the round was the cart girl who was very friendly and had a good variety of beer. Also, the clubhouse had a great view with billards table to play on after your round.

The recently reborn Short Course at Mountain Shadows has one thing missing from most golf experiences these days--it's just fun to play. Suitable for all skill levels, with great food and drink at the resort to boot. I played with my beginner wife who had a great time and we completed the round in less than two hours. Highly recommended!

The course is fun and beautiful. Very challenging. The greens are adulation and tough.

Wow - totally blown away by the remodel to Mountain Shadows! They did an outstanding job recreating the holes, while adding a bunch more character and style. It was in excellent shape, and the staff there was very friendly and excited about the future the property holds. Be sure to check out the hotel there, too, as it matches the beauty of the course - simply stunning. Great courses to play if you're sneaking out of work early, are with the family, or are just looking for a fun and challenging round that you can play in 2.5 hours. This is going to be a regular stop for my group! Great job and congrats to everyone involved in the remake of this club - you did an excellent job! Perfect blend of retro and modern in a golf course.

Beautiful course but shorter that most short courses we've played on. Course undulations make for good chipping and putting practise.

Other reviews were glowing so our foursome's expectations were high. From the minute we drove onto the property they dwindled. Construction everywhere, pro shop was a disaster, dust/dirt/detours, and for $50/person this was very disappointing! Course was interesting and the views were nice, but not spectacular. Tee boxes were top-notch but the greens were terrible for this price - bumpy and slow! And the fringe was gouged - mowed very unevenly.

With these conditions the fair price would have been more like $30 - $35. We walked and it's a very walkable layout with interesting holes - a few blind shots into gimmicky greens but, hey that's golf and a few surprises are OK. The staff tried valiantly but the construction & conditions were unacceptable for that price. We won't be coming back and we won't be recommending this place to anyone else!
