Whirlwind Golf Club - The Cattail Course

Played in 4 hours. Great and challenging layout. Excellent practice area. Would recommended to my friends.

Upon arrival you are greeted with friendly, helpful staff who immediately explain the course layout including pro shop, practice facilities (included in green fee) and starter. Your experience is just beginning - the pro shop is filled with all kinds of reasonably priced attire and the practice areas are true to the course itself. The starter gives you so much advise you forget all the fine information by the time you make your first swing - good thing there's a handy yardage booklet to keep you on the fairway. The greens are fast but true and more oblong than large, like most of the courses I've experienced in the area. Fairways are cut into the desert landscape and the overall feeling is quiet content. I highly recommend this course from start to finish!!

The starters were awesome, pairing me, a single, with a fun threesome. Thanks

The staff was excellent and friendly. The course was in great shape and the greens were terrific and fast.

got caught by a slow foursome and ended up missing one hole and pressured on 3 others. Course itself was very nice

Had a great day. course getting ready for overseeding but still in great shape

One of the only courses that haven't over-seeded.
In great shape and my out of town guest really enjoyed the experience. Pace of play was excellent.

WHIRLWOOD IS A GREAT FACILITY AND IS ALWAYS IN GOOD CONDITIION.

Always enjoy playing at Whirlwind........a little pricey but the course is typically in fine shape.

Everything was great the day we played. We played the Cattail first and then we decided to play Devils Claw both great courses.
The only complaint that I have is price, for a resident very hard to enjoy these great courses in the season would really like to be able to play when the course is in winter season. 80 dollars when it is still 100 plus degrees, then 35 for replay. Why is there not a residents rate in Arizona or at least the valley, pretty much have to put clubs away for winter. Hawaii has a local rate that allows residents to play at greatly discounted rates ex. I played Turtle Bay with resident and only had to pay 30 when the visitor rate was 150. Great deal why is there not something like this in Arizona, Would really like to be able to afford golf when courses are in pristine shape

Cattails, as usual, was in great shape. The greens were true and the ball rolled nicely on them. The fairways were immaculate and the bunkers had REAL sand in them. I play this course about three times a year and look forward to the opportunities I have to get out there. Keep up the good work!!!

The courses are always in great shape. It is well managed with friendly staff and rangers. Both Cat Tail and Devil's Claw are wide open but don't let that fool you. It is by no means an easy track. If you don't mind a little heat, the summer prices are a great value.

Everything was great except the greens. They were very "spongy" (excessive watering) and extremely slow. They looked good, they just didn't roll well. We played the "Cattail" course and overall it is a very nice layout. The practice area is fabulous and everything at the course is very well manicured.

Good service nice layout would return anytime. Nice greens clean fairways and rough and people are incredible and polite, couteous and professional.

I have played both courses and this time it was the Cattail course with my wife. At times it was a little tough for her because of the rough, however I found it challenging but fun and the staff took good care of us. The restaurant was execellent with wonderful food and plenty for the money.

I would highly encourage anyone to play either course at whirlwind. My personal favorite is devil's claw. This is a very well maintained golf community. Might to pricey in the winter but well worth your money any other time.

Played the 6300 yard tees (old guys) enjoyed the fairness of the fairways, yet challenged by location of where to try & place ball.
Our group is in the 12-20 handicap range.

Beautiful desert courses as there are two, moderatly challenging, there is water, it is somewhat wide in the fairways. I did need to watch and place my shots as there are a lot of left and right dog legs and obviously I had to watch for bunkers which are placed in the curves of those dog legs. Great course, well maintained. Though it is in the valley early morning and later afternoon tee times give you dawn and dusk views that are unbelievable. Enjoy your game and the lack of city noises.
