Golfer Reviews
**** it’s cart path only!!!! ****
Golfnow doesn’t tell you that prior to booking, you will see it after and if it’s a hot deal you won’t get your money back.. we showed up this morning 730am tee time at 1020am we finally made it to the back 9. Gave up after 9 holes. Course is cart path only, greens are sh^t, very very slow play, every person is out there trying to take advantage of this “special” long story short, drove from Glendale to play a sh^t course, much rather pay triple the price and have a course in great condition than play this junk. What a waste of my time. Not coming here again!
Thief on staff
Our foursome played the golf course on Sunday before over seating began. I accidentally left my rangefinder on the golf cart as we loaded our bags. When I realized that I had left it there I went back to the course and the pro shop was closed. I finally managed to reach the pro shop staff and told them that I left it on the cart and that the young lady cleaning the carts Had to of found it. As we were the last group out on the course. Unfortunately it was never turned into lost and found as someone decided to keep it for themselves instead of returning it. My mistake for leaving it on the cart but I had played here many times and had no reason not to trust They would do the right thing by turning it in. Bottom line secure your items and don’t trust of the staff and take care of you if you make a mistake and leave something valuable on the cart. I love the course but I’m certainly disappointed.

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!
