About
Editor's Note: Course closed in 2018. See The Phoenician Golf Club listing.
The Desert/Oasis Course was the Phoenician's first 18 holes, which were later joined by the Canyon nine. The aptly named course may have desert surroundings but its numerous palm trees and blooming flowers will make golfers feel as though they've been transported to a tropical destination. Although all three golf courses cover only 150 acres, none of them feel cramped. Any lack of length is quickly forgotten after playing the creative challenges of the layout. The golf course offers plenty of variety that make it appealing to low and high handicappers alike. Dramatic elevation changes characterize the Desert nine, providing the breathtaking views that have led it to be the most requested course. The Oasis nine is memorable as well with water coming into play on six holes and a unique moat of sand on the par-4 finishing hole.

Canyon Course...tee off towards Camelback Mtn. Photo submitted by u000001276894 on 09/24/2012
Best views in town
If you can find a deal here you have to take it because the course is amazing! But Full price …it’s a bit steep …add in $10 drinks = ouch e on the wallet lol
Nice Redesign
First time back to the Phoenician since the redesign (they consolidated 3 nine hole tracks into one 18). New layout much improved, back nine is very memorable close to Camelback Mt. Fairways and greens both in good condition even right before winter over-seeding.
There are a few very long distances from green to the next tee, but not really a problem in a cart. Only downside was the massive construction of homes on the grounds; this is obviously temporary.
Great views
Very nice course, range finder on cart very nice distant to hazard distance to green and over. Top notch
All the bottled water on the course was free
Beautiful views of the valley from the back nine
Beautiful Course
Unbelievable views, the course was in perfect condition. One of the most beautiful golf courses I have ever played.
Great course
Very scenic, beautiful layout...friendly staff..only drawback was a very slow back nine pace of play.
Bring you own booze
Seriously. The prices for drinks out here are insane. $90 for 2 bloodys, a double jemison and 2 beers. I'm fine paying for my drinking at a golf course, but, this is nuts
Beautiful Course
Great course and layout. $65 rate as a hot deal of Golf Now made it very attractive. Played as a single and did catch up to a twosome at one point, but just allowed me to work on game a little. Saw bev cart 4 times and a Marshall did stop by and said they moved along a group that was dragging
nice course
great course, only thing to fix is the wet bunkers, can't hit out if half of them
Great course in Phoenix
Awesome course, fairways were in great condition, lush dedpite the 104F conditions, green s rolled well a bit slow. Pace was great 4.5 hrs Tee time was 0910. Tee boxes were weathered though. Would play again
first time
was excited to see a $40 round come up on the day, greens were slow, $10 beers was a bit much considering it was so hot and i am always thirsty... great city views from i think the 14th up against the hillside. north of $120usd in peak time, not too sure.
Solid for the time of year but slow on a saturday
The course was in nice shape for August. Greens rolled well, but the pace was very slow. Hr bermuda there really grabs your club. Stock up on water as there is not much on the course. I thought the back 9 was very cool.
Great play
Played at 1030 on a Thursday for $45. A steal as prices usually around $120. Towels in carts, awesome gps system with live TV and football scores. The views are amazing on the back 9. Pretty short track but greens are pretty difficult. A lot of slope, never a flat putt! Had coolers of waters every 6 holes or so. Cart girl made about 5 rounds. Played 4 hour round with a foursome. Doesn’t move very fast, that’s my only complaint. If you’re a single you’ll be paired with someone. You won’t be getting this course done in 2 hours as a single. Course was amazing for time of year. Construction going on a lot of places but it never affects your play. You’ll just be worrying about knocking a worker out on some holes
