Fun course

My group and I had a fun round despite the dry conditions. The condition was expected because they are prepping for overseeding. The fairways are wide open and there are plenty of bunkers on the fairway and around the greens. Some bunkers had little sand and a couple with really nice white sand. The everyone at the pro shop, starter, and beverage cart was friendly. I’d definitely play here again!

Solid day

The course was in good shape for this time of year. Greens were a bit long, but were recently rolled. The putts still held their lines, but a tad bit on the slow side. The course is green and prices are right. Will be back again soon.

Ridiculous

Drove all the dawn to Foothills golf course and was told only the back nine was open. No notice of this on GOLF NOW ? The guy in the shack saibd call GOLF NOW and tell them so they can give your back. Ya right, it is a pain in the BEHIND to deal with GOLF NOW on these issues. RIDICULOUS!!!

Gold Card Purchase

This review is regarding the Gold Card program. In the past for the price of the card you received the Gold Card and a gift card for $100.00 included in the cost of the Gold Card purchase. This year the Gold Card still costs the same as previous years with no discernable differences in the benefits however the course has elected to not provide the purchaser of the Gold Card membership the $100.00 gift card. IE membership costs the same as previously but the benefits are now without the $100.0 gift card. A real downer to the tune of $100.00.

Great value!

Greens were in excellent shape and fairways are in very good condition. Course condition, layout, and cost make this one of the best values in the Phoenix metro area(just 20 minutes south of Chandler). They just re-opened the grill for breakfast and lunch - club sandwich was great!
