Faldo at Wildfire Golf Club at Desert Ridge Resort

My girlfriend and I played the Faldo Course at Wildfire Golf Club early in the morning before work - a fun and enjoyable challenge.

The conditions were good, though not exceptional. The greens rolled well, but a few areas of the course could use some extra care. While the course doesn’t quite hit the “wow” factor, it’s a solid choice for an enjoyable round.

I have played this course numerous times over the years. Always in good condition except greens are at times slow. Just a fun course to play.

Drink cart ran out of sandwiches by 1pm and no dogs or sandwiches at the turn. Your F&B manager needs to step up.

Wet course from overseeding a fact of life but always frustrating.

Not too impressed for the manicure of the course given the price. Also, club house very concerned about speed of play which made for a very frustrating round. There was never anyone waiting on us but the marshall was with us every step of the way. Even asked us to skip a hole when no one was behind us. Very annoying.

Played mcdowell mountain the next day and course condition was much like what i expected and no marshal even asked us to hurry up even though course was busy.

The Faldo course was in very good condition considering the long stretch of extremely hot weather.

Golf course was amazing! Only down side of it being a solo golfer was catching a group of 4 on hole 6 who wouldn't let me pass. Thought maybe there would be a marshall driving around to keep everyone up with pace of play but there wasn't. What should of been a 2 1/2 maybe 3 hour round turned into a 4 1/2 round just because I was waiting on every hole. Other than that, course was amazing, the greens and fairways were amazing and would definitely play here again.

I really enjoyed my time at Wildfire Faldo course. I came on a Saturday at 12:15. They allowed me to play as a single since the course wasn’t too busy. The practice facility and staff were great before teeing off. The course itself is in great shape and challenging with so many bunkers to avoid. I didn’t catch anyone until the 8th hole and was able to pass them on 10. The marshall said he should give me a speeding ticket since I was 40 minutes ahead of pace after the front 9. Overall the round took 3 hours and was a great experience. Will be back in the future.

The only thing that wasn’t perfect at this place were the greens. Because they were recently punched and way too slow. That’s understandable, it was just that time. My issue is that the practice green WASNT. The practice green was beautiful and perfect. So I warmed up on a green that wasn’t representative of the course. Other than that it was a fantastic day

Great time playing here, first time out but I will definitely be back! Played the Faldo course, enjoyed everything about the place!

Course was in very good shape with the exception of several bunkers that need manicuring..

All in all just a great day on an excellently maintained course! The views were amazing too!

The Faldo course was a little more friendly off the tee than most, with larger fairways, but still challenging due to a lot of bunkers. The far sides of the fairways also had longer grass than many courses in Phoenix/Scottsdale, so it helped the ball stay in play more. Other courses seem to have such hard, short grass on the perimeter that it can sometimes kick out after a less-than-perfect shot. I'll be back.
