Orange Tree Golf & Conference Resort

It started out I was quoted the wrong price over the phone. Got to the course it was a different price! Then the pro shop told us 2 greens were bad, it was 12 greens were really bad! The rough was hard as a rock with no grass or very little. Some tee boxes were bad as well! Not worth the money, at all! I’ve played there every time I’ve been in town so I invited 2 friends, they won’t go back, I was embarrassed to bring them there. They should be charging $50 per round!!!

Nowhere does it say greens are horrible and unplayable - not here on golfnow or on their website

They are scamming golfers by not being transient - lying basically and overcharging on top of everything

I am requesting a full refund from Golfnow

Pathetic mgmt of course to let this lie happen

Unfortunately the greens were in horribly ill repair

Let’s start with I can’t believe they are changing full price the driving range had 0 grass on the tee area and that was the introduction. Tee boxes were beat up and uneven, there were several green with large dead areas to putt through. Fairways were decent but no better than other less expensive courses in the area. Layout is forgiving with lots of room to wander. Would wait till conditions improve to play again.

Greens are in rough shape and fairways were mostly hardpan, not a good value for the cost.

While I have really enjoyed this course in the past, it is in terrible shape. They mentioned the winter maintenance and care was mis-managed. It was a nice gesture to give us a 10% discount on the rate and a free small bucket of range balls but I would say buyer beware. Even if they offered a free round instead, I would ask if I could use it next year. Greens were in terrible shape. Fairways and tee boxes were not the greatest as well. This is a fun course with some challenging holes and still recommend it, just not now. Hopefully they get this all fixed soon.

The greens were in poor condition they appeared to be diseased with 15-20% having no grass.

The lack of rain really shows. Greens were disappointing, with almost all greens show bare spots, sometimes up to 50%. Fairways are good, but if you’re off, you’re hit off dry dirt. Bunkers are in excellent condition

The greens are bad. Very bad. Charging $100 for a round is actually atrocious. I can understand their summer conditions, but even in the summer they have better pricing in comparison to many. Someone looked around at the other nearby courses and knocked $20 off and called it a day.

Staff was very nice, pace was good, fairways healthy, but greens were really bad still.

I love “The Tree” , but will not be back until I have confirmation greens have been restored.

So not worth the price I paid, the greens are all spotty, they should definitely lower the price until they get it back to playing condition

If you book your Tee times at the Orange Tree resort you will be assured you’re getting the cheapest rate. Double check your rates at GOLFNOW booking when you reserve.

Orange tree is one of our go to courses when we winter in Scottsdale. This is the first time the course was in bad shape. Many of the greens had bald/bare spots. Over watering caused a small pond in front of a par 3. Just disappointing The staff was in fine form as usual.

It appeared that the fairways and especially the greens had not been taken care of.
