Faldo at Wildfire Golf Club at Desert Ridge Resort
About
Faldo Championship Course at the Wildfire Golf Club measures as long as 6,846 yards, depending on which tees you're shooting from, and lies on 174 acres and features some differences from the average desert-themed golf courses. Faldo offers abundant fairways, big bentgrass greens and tee boxes, as well as the golf course's neighboring mountains, century-old saguaro cacti and 106 sand bunkers - which remind golfers of Aussie sand-belt golf courses, which gives it a magnificent locale for golfers.
Wildfire Golf Club is much-feted: When the Faldo Championship Course opened, the Arizona Republic selected hole No. 2 among the valley's 18 best. The golf course received recognition among the 2006 Travel & Leisure Golf's "World's Best Golf Resorts" for family getaways and in the 2006 Conde Nast Traveler rundown of the "Top 100 Golf Resorts in North America." These are in addition to the Gold Tee Award from Meetings & Conventions Magazine.

Golfer Reviews
Value for the money?
Well playing slow always increases your strokes and this round confirms this thought. My wife does not understand golf nd thinks it’s a dumb game since you pay a lot of money to try to hit the ball less!!! Guess she’s right but our group got their moneys worth yesterday.
Really good until the back 9
I golfed with two buddies at 2:25 knowing that there was a chance we wouldn't be able to finish our round. Golf was great up until the 11th hole when 1 of our carts died. We requested someone to come out to our carts literally 9 times. We called the club house and resort multiple times each and could never get a hold of anyone. We called from 4:40-5:00 since the clubhouse closed at 5. No one came or even spoke to us except one time we got through to the resort and asked them to transfer us to the club house. They never did and then hung up on us. We ditched the cart and the 3 of us finished a many holes as we could with only 1 cart. When we returned, no one really cared and that was really disappointing.
Fun course
Can't complain. Loved everything about the course. I played both courses few days. Loved it. I would definitely play these again. There was variety all throughout.
Awesome course, a Gem!
Really enjoyed the course, well maintained, perfect fairways & greens. Great fun course for every level of player. Not a typical resort course, thanks.
Difficult course if your game isn’t in top form
I didn't play my best. However, the views of the surrounding area and the raw beauty of the desert scenes made this a memorable round of golf.
One of my favorites in the desert
Played behind a 5-some and still finished in under 3 hours!!
As with all Marriott run courses, staff were extremely friendly.
Greens and fairways were in excellent condition. Rough was dormant, typical for this time of year. Faldo course has lots of bunkers so bring your sand game.
Be Mindful of over-seeding times.
We thought the course was great! Would have been much better if we could drive off of the cart path. Greens were also super slow and kind of bumpy due to over-seeding but we totally understood and adjusted accordingly. I will definitely go back a d try again once the conditions are different.
