Starfire Golf Club - The King Course

Aware of over seeding however the overall condition was disappointing, and level of amenities was poor.

Tried to play a round with a friend visiting from out of town. We are in our 60’s, not some punk kids. Instead, had a marshal follow us around continually telling us we were playing too slow even though there was absolutely no one in front of or behind us and we were on pace for a four hour round anyway. Honestly, I am going to pursue legal avenues to get my money back for a really bad way to conduct business by Starfire. SHAME ON YOU FOR HAVING BAD EMPLOYEES. DO NOT PLAY THIS COURSE. THERE ARE SO MANY OTHER GREAT COURSES IN THIS AREA THAT DON’T HARASS YOU FOR NO REASON.

Very good course with an excellent staff. Just reopened from overseeding so conditions were not perfect. Still a great day of golf.

For October overseeding season in Arizona, this was fantastic. All were friendly and it was in great shape

Incredible design where the number one hazard on the course is somebody's Traeger Grill or a Child's playset. Stur Fyer has developed a genome of crab grass so rare and exclusive, they seem to showcase it as the majority of the fairway.

The front desk guys treat this place like AuguSTARFIRE, they are doing you a favor by letting you play on the hallowed grounds, home of the 8-some bachelor party, of Stur Fyer.

This place exists to trick people from the Midwest into spending $320 on a round during WM Phoenix Open Week. Operation cheese curds and snowbirds

My favorite hole is on the closing stretch of the back nine, the one where you can bomb it over the houses and business along Shea. Gotten some insane kicks off that dudes roof. Good lies and angles out of their front yard, don't go too far right into 6 lanes of traffic.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The only disappointment was that they had the front 9 of the course was closed due to seeding. They had us play the executive course as the front 9 and then play the back nine of the Starfire course. We would have selected a different course to play if we had known that in advance.

That is not to say the executive course was not a fun little course but just not what we had anticipated to play.

We were a twosome behind an extremely slow foursome. They were even playing a best ball and still it was painful. The course had a couple of martials that were friendly but did not do much to correct the pace of play. Another couple drove past us and did not finish their round clearly frustrated with the slow play as well.

Doing a review of a course which just finished overseeding is not fair and it has to be taken into account. Path only conditions. Friendly people but no discount inspite of the overseeding conditions.

They were overseeding the front nine so we had to play the par 3 course for the first nine holes. Overall course conditions were below average, recognizing it was mid October. Should have been lower priced. .

We played a round at this course and 4 days later they ran a transaction and charged us a no- show fee. I called and talked to Travis the golf director and he refused to reverse the fee even after acknowledging that we did play and were there for our tee time.

This is not the kind of place that you want to play. There are too many other courses in Scottsdale which are run by honest, reputable professionals.

Absolute goat track with rude and disrespectful employees. Tee boxes are so hard you can’t get a tee in the ground, had to use the rocks that marked the tee box to hammer them into the ground. Starter made several distasteful comments, on multiple occasions, that upset my group. He was borderline bullying us. Pro shop employees weren’t much better. Avoid this place at all cost, absolute nightmare.

Disappointed in staff that Took care of you at the end of the round. They did not bring to my attention a bag I left in the little container behind the seats that had. A number of items in it worth about $40. When I got back to my timeshare, I realized it and phoned the desk and just suggested they deal with the individual.. I guess I really don’t expect that happened.
