Painted Desert Golf Club

The course is in great shape but the game took 5 and a half hours! I would not go back and play because of the length of time between each shot. There were 3 groups on every tee and we went out at 11am.

The course is good but the experience was ruined by the slow play.

The design of holes are ok but the feeling you get is the houses were lasted out and the course was made to fit. As pretty as the surrounding area is I feel that the housing lining the fairways could have been done better.

The guy out in your parking lot that is you supposed starter is one of the worst human beings on planet earth! I have never need treated so rudely in my life! The guy was a complete jerk because I told him I had just made my reservation an hour ago on this app. He told me I don’t know what I’m talking about and that I wasn’t on his list so I’m not playing there that day. I went in to complain in the pro shop, and a pretty nice guy short where’s glasses, and said his name was Dave. He told me I wasn’t the first to complain about him, but no one does anything. He assured me that someone would call me, but no one has. I left this review which was from a round on Jan 5th to today the 26th! I figure 3 weeks is enough time for a manager who cares to call me. I guess I was wrong! Be warned, I live 5 minutes from this place and I play here 3 times a year and every time is worst than the last! They should just sell it off, it’s obvious they don’t care about their customers!

Nice 3.5 hour round fairways are hard as a rock though

I would recommend. We had a good time and many thanks for the help in both the pro shop and starter.

We had a noon tee time which we figured would allow us plenty of time to finish. Upon arriving at the course, we were told they had frost delays in the morning and were still running behind. If frost delays were in the morning, why wouldn’t they alternate front and back nine to get caught up???

Instead, we were forced to wait and didn’t tee off until closer to 1. There was NO starter and NOBODY on the course monitoring pace of play We waited on EVERY hole and finished in the dark. We won’t be going back to this course.

From arrival at pro shop and dealing with friendly staff the start of the experience helps get the round started. Course condition and layout are great. Layout forces you to consider and reconsider club choice fue to properties lining the course as well as managing the holes that require the ego and driver to remain in the bag. Very much enjoyed the round and the course and it’s amenities. Price point was great when based on booking through golf now. Would recommend.this course.

It was a fun course to play, a little tighter than some, but overall a good experience and value. Had a great time with the locals I played with, and staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Overall I liked the course. The course was in very good shape. Playing out of the desert is tough!!! Cart paths & sand traps need some love.
