Located in the West Valley, the championship-length course at the Coldwater Golf Club boasts several different challenges for an interesting round of golf. There are elevated tees as well as several dry washes. There are two lakes providing water hazards on the golf course as well. There are also dramatic elevation changes caused by the mountainous terrain. Aside from the challenging game, the course also offers beautiful mountain vistas. The course has not only one signature course but two. The first is the modest eighth hole. Although it is short at 100 yards, it features an elevated tee and a triple-tiered green. Coldwater Golf Club also finishes with a signature hole. The beginning tee shot plays to an open fairway over water with a dry wash to the left, while the approach shot is closed-in by another wash to the left and a lake to the right.

Not worth the money

I have not played this course in 4 or 5 years, conditioning has surely gone down hill. I have friends that live on the course, my sympathy goes out to them.

Soaked fairways

I know what they are trying to accomplish, but carts on soft fairways due to over watering only defeats the purpose. Damaged areas should be roped off. Too many unrepaired divots. Need Marshall to protect the golf course. Tee boxes still need work. Too many uneven lumpy & areas. Love this golf course. Praying everything falls into place.

Fall Golf

I've played the course about 20 times, and the course is always in good shape. Pace of play is good, and the greens offer a variety of breaks and slopes to challenge your putting skills. Always have a good time at this course, and it's great for players of all levels. Jeff

Came back a long way!

This course is nice again. I know they suffered for a long time with whatever issue they had especially with the greens. Everything looks really nice now with the exception of around the greens. A little bit of mud lots of gopher holes and mounds. But that’s not a big deal. I’ll keep laying there.

Skip it

Local course that is not in good shape at all. Bunkers are mainly muddy messes, water hazards are mostly dried up; definitely not worth the price.

In poor shape!

The course was on cart path only.

The weren't happy with the results of the first overseeding.

So they reseeded it again. The course was very wet, soft & muddy. Luckily we brought a wet towel along. Otherwise we would of been in trouble from all the mud our balls & clubs accumulated after every shot.

Due ti the conditions there were only a sparse amount of golfers. With the lack of golfers they should of been out working on the course.

Most tee boxes were poorly kept & they have hundreds of mole hills & holes all over the course.

With the shape the course was in they should of discounted everyone's rates. Mine was a bit cheaper due to the hot deal but still was not worth the price I paid.

Slow and poor conditions

This is my third time playing the course, was hoping it would be in better condition. About 50% of the fairways are dead or dirt entirely. The greens also have full on dirt patches. This has been the case all three times I have played here. There was also a senior tournament being played in front of me, which is fine, but it took just over 2 hours to get onto the tee box for hole 7. No Marshall or anything to attempt to maintain a somewhat decent place. Will not be playing here again regardless of the rate

Work in progress

2nd reseed. Owner not happy with first one. I agree. Another 2 weeks of cart path only. Was not notified till day before. Hope it turns out well. Hopefully all golfers do their share by repairing divots and respecting the golf course.

An Excellent Value ...

Overall pretty nice. Not top notch, but they're not priced that well either. Had a great time with the 2 I played with. I was not expecting to play cart path only but they had to reseed.a second time. ... all in an effort for a better fairway! At 70 I was not sure cart path only was going to work, but it was fine.

Vacay

Been coming to Phoenix for a golf vacation for a few years now from the northern states and have used it as a starter course. It was never a premium course but acceptable, unfortunately this year they had issues with the overseeding and had to redo it so it was cart path only, wet and patchy. They did give us a discounted rate which was nice. Hopefully, they have better luck next year.

What an amazing track!! The price was extremely reasonable and the course was in pretty good shape for the beginning of the season. Greens were in pristine condition with challenging subtle putts to what am I supposed to do now!! I would recommend this track to anyone. Can’t wait to go back!! Thanks to the informative and mannered staff. Thank you Del for making the first experience a memorable one. Not often you see the boss out on the course making sure its patrons are having a good time. Drew and Jacob in the pro shop, thanks for the information. It’s nice to see young men that are passionate about the game. I’ll be seeing you boys soon!!
