Situated between the Catalina and Rincon Mountains, Forty Niner Country Club runs alongside a wooded riverbed. The golf course features fairways lined with mesquites, giant cottonwoods, eucalyptus trees, and weeping willows. Desert shrubbery also lines the fairways. The course has a traditional layout that sprawls across gently rolling terrain. It's a nice walkable golf course but it's not easy. Rather than distance, this course requires accurate shot placement and careful strategy in order to maneuver the tricky doglegs and subtly elevated greens. The most difficult hole on the course comes early on. The par-4 fifth is an only seemingly narrow hole but the double-tiered green has a dramatic slope right in the center. Forty Niner Country Club finishes with a par 3 that requires a carry over water. If played smartly, it offers a great birdie opportunity.

Nice Course, Friendly Staff, etc

We played this course for the first time yesterday. I would describe it as a mostly flat golf course. It is laid out nicely among the houses that line the fairways of the golf course. Golfers have a nice distant view of the nearby mountains. The course was well-maintained. If you hit the ball without a hook or slice, you won't get into trouble that often lead to getting double bogeys or worse. The Pro Shop staff and landscapers maintaining the course were all friendly and helpful. We will plan to play this course again sometime.

What a Day

The sun was shining. The birds were chirping. The Palm trees were blowing in the breeze. Missed putts, didn’t matter. Missed fairways. Didn’t matter. It’s a great course with people starting with the nice people inside and they don’t get any better than Kenny to hook you up with the first tee. Enjoy the day.

Great value course

The course played well and will be even better in a couple of weeks when the overseeding takes full effect.

Worth the money

The course is still not fully grown in after overseeding but is still in good shape and looks like it will be wonderful in a couple of weeks time.

Pace of play

I really wish tee times weren't every 7 minutes. It's inevitable that you will "hit the wall" this time of year. Frustrating when you could easily skip 2 holes and have a wide open course. Pace of play enforcement is non existent here as it is with most courses. The golfers in front of us apologized at the turn, we already knew that they had no where to go. Luckily the group behind us backed off after almost hitting into us twice.

Forty niner club

Just a week out of overseeing the course was beautiful.

Greens were slow though and still healing but that is to be expected.

Lots of watering so the course is a little soft but not too bad.

Good things to come as this course comes out of the overseeding!
