Faldo at Wildfire Golf Club at Desert Ridge Resort

We had multiple people driving backwards on the course without looking where we’re going. There was a group in front of us literally driving across greens in golf carts and marshal didn’t see an issue. Course conditions were good. Greens were rolling great but there were several fairways that were sandy. Course was nice but does not compare to other top notch courses in the valley.

Was to play Faldo course. Played front 9 then directed to Palmer course front 9 to finish round.

Booked Faldo course and found out from starter that back 9 on both courses are closed due to bunker renovations. ended up playing Faldo front and Palmer front...UGH I am not a bid fan of the Palmer course........will not be back until all 18 holes are open.....

On a perfect weather day, had the facility pretty well too myself. Was paired up with another single and we never saw another golfer all round. The summer monsoon rains have made the course in great shape. Fantastic value to play a course of this caliber in the summer, but with Spring weather. Great day!

This day could not have been better, the course conditions were impeccable. the staff was extremely friendly, there was nothing to complain about. If there was one possible negative some of the bunkers could’ve used a little more sand. Thankfully I wasn’t in that many of them. But I will definitely be back to play this course again this is exactly what you would expect for my Marriott owned facility .

wide fairways. need to hit good approach shots, greens are fairly smooth

Very good course. I’d put it just outside top 10 of courses I’ve played in metro PHX. But I’d put the pricing just inside the top 10 most expensive.

Very good layout. Good conditions Well trapped and the sand was fair and consistent despite being thin. Nice practice facilities. Cold drinking water every third hole. Cold towels at 1 and 10.

Does not have the elevation changes, breathtaking views or true signature holes that most of my top 10 courses have. No boring holes either.

But the best part was we played in 2.5 hours. There was a twosome a couple holes in front of us and a threesome a hole behind us that had to have a similarly fast round.

Great course; greens and fairways in excellent shape; completed 18 holes in 3 hours; staff is very friendly and accommodating; only negative was the sand traps need sand but that wont happen until whenever the traps are reconfigured. Very challenging course when the pins are strategically placed on the greens. Can't wait to play either the Palmer or Faldo course again.

Fairways are wide but the bunkers are punishing and very steep if you unfortunately have to get out of one - which is extremely likely as there are many and every green is guarded by them - even in front - so forget about running up shots to them. Tees, fairways and greens are all in excellent shape. The only complaint is that their bunkers (especially greenside) are Very steep & have very little sand at their base , which makes greenside outs very difficult even for above average players which I am not. If you can't hit high and flush irons you'll be spending your day hitting out of them :)
