The North Course is one of two courses at Granite Falls Golf Club, the other naturally being the South Course. The North Course was built on a rolling, hilly terrain with stately trees and abundant shrubbery. Although the fairways are quite generous, they are undulating and surrounded by sand traps. There is also extensive mounding and bunkering, both grass and sand, to provide more challenge. Water hazards come into play on 10 holes. Many holes have beautiful mountain backdrops, creating a scenic environment for the game. The course has four sets of tees, making it accessible to all skill levels. Granite Falls Golf Club, in addition to the two golf courses, also features a grass driving range with target areas, two putting greens, and a short game area with a practice bunker.

Fairways Experiencing Summer Burnout

Fairways and grass around the greens all experiencing bad summer burnout with large portions of no grass. Greens in good condition. Both of the GF courses are great courses.....just bad time of year for them. I will definitely play here again, just not in the immediate future. Staff are always very courteous.

Snowbirds gone

Finally the snowbirds have flown away and we get to play a great course at a fantastic rate. I rated this course moderate but the greens are difficult. There is tons of room of tee boxes. but shots on proper side of fairway are rewarded. Greens have lots of undulations and were nice and quick, Generally you need to be below the hole here. Can't wait to get back.

If your good off the tee - course can forgive some shots.

I like it because I am moving to the area. Greens are good and tee boxes in good shape for January! I am moving to SSG and look forward to more golf at this course.

Great course!!

I've played a lot of the different courses and I was expecting a middle of the road course for the price. When i saw it I was amazed at how nice this course is. Great layout, excellent looking course conditions. I will definitely play this course again.

Course in very bad shape!

Played Saturday morning July 5th we had a shotgun start and the pace pf play was great as we finished in less than 4 hours. The course is a very nice layout but is in absolute terrible shape. Fairways have little to no grass at all and many of them had expansive area where the grass was cut completely out and the were attempting to repair. the greens were extremely bumpy and possibly the slowest greens I have ever putted on. If you were outside 20/25 ft it was almost impossible to hit the putts hard enough to reach the hole. I doubt this course will be any good until the fall. I would not recommend the North course but give the others a try instead.

no sun city pushover!!!

Granite Falls north course is one of my favorites courses in the Sun City west chain of courses to choose from. This track from the tips is no pushover,greens can be tricky if you end up on the wrong side of the hole. Fairways always nice hard to find a bad lie unless u miss them. Like most az courses bunkers are mostly just hardpan so don't expect anything different here. Nice carts,and for 13$ hot deal on golfnow you just can't go wrong. Enjoy the course!

Time well spent

Nice course, not the most challenging course I have played (my best round in the last 6 years), but fun nonetheless. Greens rolled true, well placed bunkers, and just a little water. Pace of play was about 4.5 hours, but the fact that beer was 10.50 a six pack made it that much better!

Beautiful Course

After a strange start on arrival with having to sort out our own buggy and find our way to the first tee things just got better and better with the course being superb and brilliant fun.
We would play again definitely.

Nice Course

My wife and I had a nice experience at the Granite Falls North course. The course was in very good shape. The greens were surprisingly fast and challenging, but very fair. The rate was exceptional given the time of year. We had a great time and highly recommend the course to others looking for a fun, yet challenging course for a decent price.
