Faldo at Wildfire Golf Club at Desert Ridge Resort
Rating Snapshot
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.

Will be back
This is a great course, lots of sand, but can be avoided. The staff was pleasant but not overly friendly.
Found the course interesting
The course offered challenges but it was fun to play.
Must Play
Great facility all the way around.
Enjoyed a great breakfast. Nice big range. High-end carts. The layout and course conditions were great. Greens were a touch hairy, rolling maybe 8. Other than that, a 5 star experience.
Beautiful course for AZ!
Great course to play with lots of sand traps. Also great course to play late in the day.
Faldo course is very nice.
I live on a private golf course and am very particular about course conditions, and how the course is managed. This course is beautiful condition. The tee boxes look very good. The fairways are very green, considering it’s a desert course that’s a good thing. The greens are perfect. There are many bunkers that protect the greens and landing zones. The staff and marshals are very polite and very helpful. Everyone should take the opportunity to play this course. There is also a Palmer designed course too I’ll play that soon.
Nice course
Great course. I’m a high handicapper and was able to find most of my balls. Some challenges on the greens tho. Would play again.
Paired with 40 handicapper. Terrible experience
Unfortunately we were paired with a 40 handicapper. Terrible experience!
Pushed to keep things moving and didn’t complete round in the daylight.
Not what you expect when paying $165/round/person.
Sad!
Complained to Pro Shop and no remedy offered in to date….
