Great Eagle Golf Club, rated one of the most affordable golf courses in Arizona, is a championship course in the West Valley. Although it has a traditional design there are several unique and challenging elements that come into play such as undulating mounds that cause uneven lies and well-guarded greens. Water hazards also come into play on four holes. The golf course offers three sets of tee boxes so that there is some flexibility regarding levels of challenge, but overall the course is suitable for any player. The Great Eagle Golf Club, in addition to the course, also offers both a chipping green and a putting green.

Good place to play

Fairways and cart barn guys are great

Greens are ok.

Range balls are over 15 years old

Golf carts are almost 20 years old.

I hope they invest in these two items to make this place nicer

Super fun course

Always reasonably priced. Finished in just under 4 hours. The cart path is a little rough but fairways and greens are in great shape. Back 9 is especially fun, and the RV homes that line it are so interesting. The staff and other golfers are always fantastic. So many smiles today! And don't miss the fantastic bar and patio!

fun round

have always liked the layout , over the years course conditions have been inconsistent, yesterday fairways and greens were good with the exception of a few holes on back 9, off fairway fair to poor, have always thought the layout was good, enjoyed my round pace of play was good majority of holes good condition on greens and fairways, for the price its a good deal, will definitely play again , but if prices went up, nope

This doesn’t feel like a golf course

This seems like there was almost no plan… just piles of dirt, holes and depressions, very little grass. It was so bad that it was actually interesting. Who would try to sell golfing to people on this mess??

Great Eagle Again

Had a great day on the course. The weather was awesome. The fairways were in good shape, the tee boxes still need some work. The greens were very hard and the ball would not stop. But, it was a fun round with no waiting which is great for this course.

Very Rough

The layout isn't terrible but the condition of the course is about as bad as I've ever seen. This place could be nice with some major investment. I paid $65 to play which is way too much and revealed itself as a terrible value.

Horrible

Greens fee WAY too high. Golf cart has no suspension and the ridiculously rough ride actually hurt my back. Cart paths are either bumpy gravel or unlevel asphalt with tree roots pushing up. Constant slamming while driving. Traps are dirt/rocks...not one rake on the course. Grass around greens spotty and clumpy; greens too long and need mowing. Water/mud everywhere. I've played golf in Arizona for 27 years and this is one of the worst courses I've played. Sorry to be so critical, but had I read this review yesterday, I would have saved alot of money and disappointment.

Challenging course

This is a lengthy challenging course with many steep knolls and bunkers. The greens and fairways are in good shape and the layout is fine. Unfortunately the remainder of the course is very unkempt. But at least it wasn’t an exorbitant price. We had a good day…as long as you know what to expect.

3:45 Tee Time in February--Need I Say More?

Booked a late tee time just to chase the ball around. I have played this course before. It had a full slate of retired folks out (me included) on a Monday, so the pace of play was challenging. The course is in adequate shape, though the first hole fairway had been punched. Greens are adequate also. With the bunkering and the uphill approaches to some of the greens, it is a challenging layout for just about any golfer.

Potential

It is a target course and it has quite a few elevated greens. the rough is rough and makes it difficult around the greens to be consistent.

The Staff was very nice and the price is right.

I would only recommend to a friend letting them know the conditions are not good, bad, if you are off the fairway
