Course Highlights
Troon North consistently impresses with flawless greens, well-maintained fairways, and a challenging desert layout framed by stunning Arizona scenery. Attentive staff and strong overall value make this one of Phoenix's top public course experiences.

Pinnacle at Troon North represents a stunning, challenging golf experience blended into the high Desert's natural beauty with steep arroyos, natural washes and forests of saguaros and desert foliage. Portions of some fairways are hidden behind boulders and hills. Huge greens surrounded by large bunkers and sloping terrain challenge golfers on every approach shot.

A round of golf on the Pinnacle Course at the Troon North Golf Club kicks off on a par-4 hole that measures 392 yards from the Black tees. Things get crazy long on the 16th hole, a par 5 that plays to 609 yards from the Black tees. By that measure, the 18th hole will be a cakewalk, at par-4 and just 447 yards from the Black tee to the clubhouse.

After finishing the Pinnacle Course at Troon North Golf Club, head to the Grille, which offers a view of others trying to complete the course you've conquered, as well as the desert.

Beautiful

The most beautiful course I've ever seen. Great layout. Every hole felt unique. Only issue was that I asked to up the tee time and they were nice enough to do so at the same price or so they said but then when I got there they tried to charge $38 more per golfer. They ended up giving us a discount so it was only $13 more per golfer but at that point it felt petty that they didn't just give us the original price, especially considering there were lots of tee times available. Besides that, I will recommend the course to everyone as it was recommended to me.

Staff Friendliness

Review of Troon North Golf Course:Troon North Golf Course offers a stunningly manicured course and a picturesque backdrop for a day of golfing. However, my recent experiences have been marred by disappointing encounters with the staff. Unfortunately, this issue persisted from my first visit, where I found the staff's lack of friendliness to be off-putting. On both occasions, there was a failure in communication, with no notice given about the closure of the driving range, despite inquiries made to staff members.Moreover, the demeanor of staff members, particularly at the golf cart pick-up location, left much to be desired in terms of customer service. While the course condition remains consistently excellent, the overall experience is diminished by the staff's attitude towards guests. For the premium price charged, one would expect a higher level of professionalism and hospitality.In conclusion, while Troon North Golf Course boasts pristine course conditions, the disappointing interactions with staff members detract from the overall experience. Until there are improvements in staff friendliness and communication, I find it difficult to recommend this establishment to friends seeking a welcoming and enjoyable golfing experience.

Good but better for the money

Greens were the slowest I have played here and the driving range was closed despite the bag room giving us directions to the far end of the range

Troon North Pinnacle

Nice course with very heavy usage. All greens were heavily marked by previous ball damage and the tees were also pretty beat up. The layout is difficult, yet fun. The lady who operates the carts and the proshop guys were great.

If the House of Mouse built a golf course in Frontierland I’m pretty sure it would look just like the Pinnacle Course at Troon North.

Wow

Very rarely will I leave a five star review. This course deserves it. Top to bottom, amazing. I got on for a reasonable price so I may be a little biased. However this course is one of the best that I have seen. The layout gets better and better as the course goes on. Fairways and rough are in immaculate shape. Must play in AZ.

Never fails to disappoint

While I get that many feel that TN has priced itself out of the market; this course (especially Pinnacle) remains the penultimate example of desert golf.

All good until….

Welcome, great; staff, great; lay out, great; driving range, mediocre due little turf where it is currently set up. Nonetheless always a good feel… right up until you get to the first green…. And then the 2nd, and then the 3rd… ball marks were shocking for a high end golf course and simply unacceptable at this price point. Allocate some staff to repair them. Shameful that golfers don’t fix them, but my guys we fix 4 -5 per hole, it’s just not enough. #2 looks like a somebody did a helicopter ball drop! Sorry, but I expected better at this price point. probably 8th time I’ve played this course and have never seen it like this.
