Great afternoon
Everything was wonderful. Will definitely play again.
Hot Deal
I stumbled into this course as Hot Deal Special sponsored by Golf Now. Probably the best $10 (plus GN Fee) that I have ever spent on anything golf.
Nice course for my level (15 Hndcp) and I was able to score. Fairways were wide which helps my game.
The staff treated me very well despite the Golf Now discount and the drinks were inexpensive. Happened to be paired up with two nice people making it a wonderful 3+ hours.
This Course Is In Great Shape
Really enjoyed playing Desert Springs G C, a course that was NOT full of the typical burned and bare spots from tee to green that I see at many/most courses in the summer. Kudos to the G C crew and management. Staff was very friendly and the price was right for golf and also for beer and a dog. It was a bit of a drive for me to get there but it is well worth it and I will go back to play here again soon. Plus a 3 1/2 hour round on a Saturday, how great is that.
Great layout and condition
I was very pleasantly surprised at the condition of this course for August. Fairways and greens in excellent shape, better than some courses in winter. Good layout and good pace. Will definitely go back again.
nice day toplay
All round a great course. I will play there again.
Desert Springs
Sun City Grand always keeps their courses in good condition. You can't beat the summer prices and their food and beverage prices are always reasonable.
This course was a pleasure to play
We are very fortunate to be able to play great courses like this
Very straight forward, enjoyable course.
Staff exceeding helpful and friendly. Greens in good shape as well as fairways.
Very well kept
Very nice course and well kept bunkers. Fairways are wide enough for seniors.
Can't go wrong...
Can't go wrong with any of the Sun City Grand courses and Desert Springs did not disappoint. Plenty of challenge for all skill levels, do yourself a favor and make a visit.
Good track.
This course is usually in very good condition. The day we played, the greens were smooth and fast, fairways were in great shape and we played (twosome) in less than 3 hours. Course can be tough from the back tees, especially when the wind is blowing. Wide fairways help keep your ball in play.
Great Conditions
Course was absolutely beautiful and in awesome condition! A little far out there, but well worth the drive for anyone1
Excellent Round of Golf
First time we had played this course in many years. We loved it. Greens were fast with challenging slopes and wonderful surface condition. Plenty of water features to add an extra challenge. Played in a shotgun start yet still finished in 3 3/4 hours with very little waiting. Highly recommended.
A friendly round of golf
Not many surprises, what you see is what you get. Nice course for golfers of varied abilities.
Great Day but very windy
Had a good time, Paired up with a pretty good
golfer. Played in 3 hours, course was open till
last 2 holes. Pro shop was very friendly. The
wind really blew hard all the way and I still had
a great time. Good company great course.
Desert Springs
Immaculate! Pace of play fast! Greens smooth and undulating
Challenging Course
Greens were a little rough and bumpy but guess that is to be expected this close to over seed time.
Avoid until mid November
Tees and fairways were OK, but for some reason they decided to scalp their greens 2 weeks before overseeding. If you have a putt over 3 feet, good luck! I like this course, but the greens are so bad now it is just a waste of time.
This course is an excellent course with great features.
It is being readied for overseeding so the greens are mowed close. The layout is outstanding and challenging.
Great value
The course is a fun course. It has a variety of holes and can be played from a number of tees.
