Faldo at Wildfire Golf Club at Desert Ridge Resort

Decent conditions for the time of year, pace of play was great

Played the Faldo course and it was in great shape for this time of year with the exception of their traps. No sand and like hitting off of a sidewalk.

Beautiful course in great shape, except the bunkers were rock hard. Not sure if this is just summer in Arizona thing but small issue for an overall amazing experience. Greens and fairways were pristine and a fun course with lots of different tees for all levels. Staff was friendly and helpful!

Greens are in great conditions. Traps need some sand. Otherwise eleventh course and value.i got it as a deal for $75.

Have been playing Faldo for years. It never disappoints. If you’ve never played it, give it a try. Oddly enough, they rarely put the pin near where my ball lands! 😂

Course was in good shape. Some tight driving holes which I love. The gentleman that waited on me at the pro shop was very rude and ignorant. When I asked if I could get my parking pass validated, his response and tone was unacceptable. Not what you expect for a $250.00 dollar round of golf. Pace of play was terrible. A group of four, two holes ahead clearly didn’t understand proper golf etiquette or pace of play. The Marshall spoke to them multiple times but nothing changed. If anything they got slower, guess he was ill equipped to address the situation correctly which would have been warning first, skip a hole second, and third removal from course. Cart Lady was great and made it to us at least four times which was great. All in all a great course to play, if you can deal with the downsides.

This course was on my list to play. It did not disappoint. Many of the holes were picture perfect. I was surprised to find out it has 108 bunkers. Many courses no longer have sand in the bunkers. While this course had sand in many of the bunkers it was primarily small rock in the fairway bunkers. The greens were in good condition with challenging pin positions. The staff was friendly and all worked to make you feel welcome. This is a course to play but had to wait for cheaper play as it is on the pricier side. Enjoyed the round!

I’ve played wildfire over 100 times. Was so disappointed at the condition of the course. Grass was very sparse. Had mud balls every shot They should be notifying people of these conditions before they spend a lot of money to play there

Well designed

First 8 holes good pace of play and then often 3 groups on a hole and very slow

Bunkers very hard

The grass part of the course is in great shape. The bunkers are really bad. The bunkers are a hard pack with a very thin layer of sand. If you hit into a bunker, play it like a waste area not a bunker shot. Pretty disappointed for a course that has so many bunkers. They look pretty, but definitely a penalty when hitting into them.

If you’ve played the Faldo course, you know there are tons of bunkers on every hole. 108 total bunkers. The sand was the hardest I’ve ever played on. EVER. It was like hardpan dirt. Extremely disappointing especially for a resort course charging $200 for an afternoon round. Absolutely horrible. Until they get this fixed do not spend your hard earned money on this course. They owe me a refund. The pro shop was closed when we finished so couldn’t talk to anyone. Such a shame for a great course layout.
