Whirlwind Golf Club - The Cattail Course

Pace of play was very slow. At times there were 4 groups at a hole. Only saw ranger once.

Played an afternoon round and all the bunkers were wet and had no sand making them very unreliable. Course has none good risk reward holes and can be fun to play with proper placement

Excellent course with tough greens. Very enjoyable.

Really enjoyed playing Cattail..First time playing Whirlwind. I would highly recommend this course as playability was fair and greens are very puttable.

The weather was spectacular and the overseeding has taken beautifully so Cattail is lush and green. Fairways are in great shape and the Bermuda rough is dormant so the course plays slightly easier than it would in warmer months. The greens were a little slow and bumpy as it’s apparent the course gets a lot of daily play and not everyone is as diligent as they should be in fixing ball marks. As always the course is well watered and in places that can encourage your ball to check up so plan ahead for that. Overall the course is in great shape.

No issues with the actual course at all. The round took forever though. From the 6th hole on every time we got to the next tee the group in front of us was still waiting to tee off. Around hole 10 the ranger came by and said they took care of it but nothing changed. We barely finished before dark with a 1:30 tee time.

First time playing Whirlwind. Very impressive golf course. Fairways and greens in excellent shape. All staff very friendly and accommodating. Great lunch-try the Mexican Cubano sandwich with onion rings. I'll return.

Beautiful and challenging course set in wide open desert and no homes nearby. I received attentive friendly service from the moment I arrived. Booked solo through Golfnow and was placed with a group of three great players. Free balls on practice range, GPS in cart, beautiful landscaping , and excellent course conditions. Features elevated tees and greens, some slope and challenging hole placements on green, and enough sand in bunkers to allow a proper out. This place is popular so expect sold out schedule and therefore 4-4.5 hour pace. Enjoy!!

Best views I played in the area. Tee boxes, fairways, greens conditions were incredible. Very well taken care of. They accommodated a group of five night problem. Definitely coming back.

Live in Gilbert, haven't played this course before today. Love it .... staff was awesome, the course was fun and challenging. Over a great course.Golf carts kinda bother me (If you stray of course, forward is disabled and you have to back up), but living in the desert I understand it is for our safety.

course in great summer condition, but bring your A game around greens

Awful condition for the current rate. Have played the course 20+ times and never seen it like this.

Greens are so bumpy any putt outside of a foot is not going in.

Fairways are half dead.

Played in a foursome and the other 3 were contemplating asking for a 50% refund due to conditions.

We were very disappointed in the poor quality of the course. When asked of the staff, they excused it to its recent opening after punching the greens and fairways. Why not disclose that when reservations are made? One hole would be soaked, with constant need to place the ball somewhere a bit drier. Then the next hole would be a patchwork of recently laid sod. We played with a member who expressed the same dismay. He said the other course (same price) was far superior in its condition .

The pro shop was nice, the practice area was fine, but overall, I would not recommend this course at this time.

I'm a repeat customer. Love these courses. Laid out in the desert, on the outskirts of the hub-bub, these two courses--Cattail and Devil's Claw--have become some of my favorite courses. You travel through a nice desert environment the entire time you are on this course. The layout of the course is a challenge for all level of player, with the conditions as good in the summer as in the winter. On the day I played, there were some areas under repair, and the greens had been recently punched and sanded, but that is the nature of the course superintendant--they get on top of it before it becomes a complaint.

In today 's course, there was an accident where a beverage cart was overturned and a female driver was laid under the cart. My friend and I lifted the cart, called 911 to catch the incident, and the other player called the golf course office and announced the news. After that, there were only two employees, but they did not ask for the situation at the time of the accident and did not say thank you to the customers who helped. My friend and I ran as soon as we saw the cart fall. My friend, who was a bit uncomfortable with the legs, ran with me. However, the employee walked off the cart slowly to the scene of the accident, and his facial expression was full of irritation. Anyone who enjoys golf can suffer injuries or accidents. At the golf course here, I think I should probably think I can die.

Beautiful golf course!! Great challenge! Beat conditions I’ve played this year so far!!

Love the course but they always treat you like an amateur there

Course was in good condition and layout was good. Line up at first tee box for early morning round didn’t make a whole lot of sense, considering there was a starter & marshal(s) present leading to a 4:40 round.
