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.

The course layout is very pleasant to the eye but the fairways were in bad shape, Bermuda grass is not in yet and all the winter rye is dead.

Granite Falls North Course

This well kept golf course is great for players of all abilities. There are two sets of forward tees for beginners and those who do not hit shots longer that 125-175 years making it possible for shorter hitters to make pars with two good shots on par 4 holes. The greens are quick and in very good shape. There are some dead spots in some of the fairways due to the extreme temperatures of late. Tee boxes are free of broken tees and members repair ball marks so your feel like you will make putts. Highly recommend!

The course was in good shape considering the heat has taken a toll on much of the fairways ...

Did not care for the course ranger forcing us to give up a cart after 9 holes to ride with a 4th golfer who caught up with our threesome at about the sixth hole. This woman had absolutely no golf etiquette and she made the last 13 holes a very unpleasant experience. Suppose it was our fault for not letting her play through.

Great West Valley Course

Beautiful course, somewhat challenging. Almost perfect, Would give it five stars, but the sand is in bad shape, Needs to be addressed. There is a lot of traps on the course. So you will find yourself in it from time to time. good luck getting out.

Good condition, great price

As most AZ courses, the sand traps need some work. Some of the ones I was in were very hard. Most of the fairway and rough grass was in good shape. Green were reasonably fast. Wish there was a beverage cart out there. Overall good to very good.

Thoroughly enjoyed the round.

Play was slow but it's that way everywhere now. The course was in great shape - and the price was unbeatable at $15! Thanks to GolfNow and to the courses that participate.

Granite Falls North has it all

Granite Falls is on Golfnow only half the year when the snowbirds fly the coop. So look forward to my summer season of playing Scottsdale grade courses for a fraction of the fees right here in my backyard. Any course you choose inside Sun City Grand gives you just the right amount of water, bunkers superb greens and plenty of shade for the long hot summer.

Water and trees make for an 18 hole oasis in the desert.

Fun course set in a retirement community, laid back, easy pace. Greens are slow, but overall conditions were excellent.

Fun course to play

Have some time and patients when playing this course. I was a single and no one would let me play through. The staff was disorganized. I had to call the clubhouse while I was at the 1st tee to see if I could go because I was never called and it was 15mins after my scheduled time. The course itself is in great condition, very fun with some really challenging shots, but then some relief with a few easy holes mixed in. Overall as a fun course, 4 stars. Customer service, 1 star.

Nice course, well conditioned, good layout.

First time at Granite Falls, definately the jewel of Sun City Grand. The course has a little of everything, water, elevation, mountain views. Although breezy and "cold" for AZ standards, it was a nice course.

Enjoyable round of golf

This is the first time I have played this course and it was really an enjoyable round of golf with different hole setups and good distance for my game. The conditions were very good and because I played in the late afternoon, the course was not crowded.

Course was well designed, challenging yet playable. I have a new favorite course !!

By far the best new course I have played in the last 15 years. Was born and raised an avid golfer in Arizona then lived and played courses in NC for 15 years. I have not been as impressed or enjoyed a round as much as the day I played Granite Falls North. What a wonderful welcome home.
