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.

Just OK

Nice course, Tee’s and fairways were in great condition but the greens had a unusually high number of un-repaired ball marks. Overall I have played courses that I felt were a much better value.

Excellent all around

Definitely the best course I’ve ever played with the course conditions. There wasn’t a blade of grass out of place. I was a little hesitant going it with all the complaints about the ball marks on the green. Yes there were some old ones but the staff does a good job of rolling the greens so they don’t effect your putts. No complaints from me about the greens. The course itself was a challenging desert course with a lot of placement shots. I lost more balls in this round than I have in my last 15 rounds combined, but I still had a blast. Pace of play was great. Finished in just over 4 hours even with a 10 minute pit stop at the turn. Saw the cart girl 3-4 times throughout the round. Overall - fantastic experience.

Slow but had a blast

Late start due to frost delay. Slow play but it was the couple we were paired with- the marshal was always nearby and kept an eye on is. guess our pace was not too bad.

Fantastic! What a course! What fun! Challenging, beatiful views, prestine fairways, wow! Worth the money!

Great Design / Terrible Green Condition

Played Troon North Monument as the closing course to our three day tournament (also played We-Ko-Pa & Grayhawk). The course design/setting was stunning, but we were surprised to find the greens in terrible condition. Unrepaired ball marks and dead spots littered every green on the course, which created a very difficult & unpredictable landscape to putt through. Was in worse shape than a local muni. Not at all what you would expect for a course with $275+ greens fees. Highly disappointing

Great course

The course was moderately maintained, lots of unrepaired divots. The greens were very fast and mostly flat. The pace was good and the staff were very friendly. Over all good value as we picked up a sale v

Cart Path Only and Range Closed on Mondays

Fantastic course, but cart path only was brutal. Range closed on Mondays so stay away on that day. You just can’t charge the green fees they do and be cart path only.

Overall good value for under $80

Downfall was poor condition of greens and no ranger seem to speed up play. Unable to finish 18 holes due to a slow group in front. Otherwise beautiful scenic course.

Beautiful course. A little intimidating with all the gaps you have to shoot over but amazing scenery. I would say it’s better all around the the Tpc course in my opinion. Definitely will be playing the other troons course next time I’m there

Amazing course

I’d play it again but I would expect a course like this to finish in under 4 hours. We ran out of daylight and had to stop early. Played 14 holes in 4 hours.
