Forty-Niner Country Club

As you line up to hit a shot, you see the Catalina Mountains in the background and on another hole you see the Rincon Mountains. Very peaceful.

Sand traps needed sand and the tee boxes should be aerated. The course was well laid out with a feel of privacy.

I have always enjoyed playing forty niner. I really like the layout thru the mesquite trees. The course however needed some work. Most of the fairways had very little grass and the tees were not in much better shape. As far as the greens were concerned, they were playable unless you were putting downhill to a front pin location. I think the application of a little water would go a long way towards enhancing a better playing experience.

The constant wind with severe gusts made this round more challenging than usual. Good thing there was nothing on the line except my pride!:) Not having played in such windy conditions except maybe twice before, I found myself guessing whether my club selection should be one, two, and at times, even three clubs different from usual. I still had fun trying to navigate this added challenge realizing that I would need much more practice doing so in order to score better.

This last time I was there they were really running people through the course but the timing wasn't bad and all the people playing were nice. We were back to back but that's efficient. The weather was great! The drinks were great! the ball cleaning stations were filled and clean. The course is easy enough for a beginner so it was just a nice relaxing day.

We are recreational golfers and appreciated that we were not pushed or encouraged to pick up the pace. All foursomes ahead and behind us were golfing at the same pace. Perfect course for the price.

Lots of rocks in traps. Some fairways in bad shape.

It’s easy to be critical so the following is mentioned in a positive manner. The course looks like it is getting plenty of use, tee areas particularly are getting beat up. Tees on the front nine were very hard, difficult to get tees in, no doubt holding back on watering hoping for rain.. the same could be said for most of the fairways . Fairway quality in landing area and around greens were contaminated with other grasses giving a lumpy inconsistent surface that made clean striking of the ball difficult. The playing fee at the course I think reflect the quality of the experience. I am always happy to play this course.

A little worn around the edges, but a great fun to play layout. Tees, fairways good, greens domed, hard and quick. A little out of the way but worth the trip.

Greens were consistent. Grass around greens was good. Some fairways were in good shape, some not so good . The overseeding was sparse. Play moved right along. Priced reasonably for the afternoon times. Just don’t expect the Ritz.

Really like playing this course, great value for the money! A little far from Green Valley but worth the drive! Will and have recommended to my friends

Had frost delay so a bit late starting - understandable. Group in front very slow. 5 hour round - hard to get a rhythm going.
