Enjoyable Round

The course was in very good condition - especially for June in the desert. Fairways are wide and approaches were good. The greens could use more grass, but they were in good condition and rolled true and reasonably fast. Was impressed to see a bag drop attendant/starter, too. Reservation was prepaid so I didn't even have to check in at the pro shop. Will play again for sure.

Good course for the Money

Starting the summer months, the Golf Club facilities were limited. The starter was friendly and informative. For the money and location. the golf course was perfect for our golf experience. The course was in decent shape, the greens were healing from being micro- punched but very playable. The holes were challenging with water on some of the holes.

Great course for value

3 hr and 15 min pace of play. Was two of us w a tee time of 8:00am. Course was great and excellently maintained. My only issue is that the bar for food was not ipen til 10:00am, no beverage cart person, there was no clear yardage markers on the course, and there was no gps yardage on the cart which obvi would be helpful and was a lil annoying. Suggest putting clear yard markers in the fairway OR putting GPS on the carts.

Party of 6?

There was a party of 6 golfing in front of us. Extremely slow round, 4 + hours. SM should not allow parties of more than 4 to play together. Otherwise all good.

Beautiful back 9

The front nine of this course holds to its designer. The back nine is a very beautiful layout and is totally opposite of the front nine. Being able to find it at this cost, there were no complaints on my behalf. It's always good to have golf now as an app.

Just an ok experience

Dropped bags at bag drop. No attendant on duty. A young man came out of building and gave me a key. Never saw any clubhouse. Pointed me to the first tee and that was last I saw of anyone that worked there. Course had some rough areas, some construction going on. Pared up with a nice father and daughter who were familiar with the course and they were very friendly. I wouldn’t rush back here.

Not much to say

I did get to play with a nice Father and Daughter. But when I arrived I went to bag drop, no one to be seen. Then a young man ran over and grabbed a key from a bucket and said here is your cart key. He said have fun, I asked if I needed to check in and he said nope, then he pointed to the first tee and said go ahead whenever you want. Much of the course was under repair. Not the greatest experience.

The course has improved 100% since the homeowners took it over. The course is clean, the greens are perfect and fast and the service was great. It was slow on the back nine, but it was Memorial Day weekend and so one would expect that would be the case.

Great Value

This is a fun course to play. It's not overly difficult but does have some hazards to watch out for. It's in decent shape but the greens were punched and there was a lot of maintenance happening on the back nine. The crew didn't place the tee boxes and there was a red flag on the back of the green on 17. Regardless, I'm certain I will play there again over the summer.

Course was less than expected

Lots of construction. No starter. No one really told me anything when I arrived. Basically a guy handed me a key for the cart and said have fun. That was all the interaction with staff.
