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.

Good value

Layout was interesting, not very attractive surroundings. Tee boxes and fairways were very good, greens really bumpy. Pretty good value for high season. Would do it again.

Not quite the same as three years ago

It’s been 2-3 years since I have played the course. And I loved this course. This time however it wasn’t the same. It’s a little shoddier, the fairways were good, the greens needed a bit of care. The areas surrounding the fairways was overgrown and trashy. It just seemed overall to not be as well cared for as it once was.

Zero Stars

For the price they are charging this course is easily one of the worst courses in the valley this winter. The layout is wonderful if the greenskeeper could figure out how to grow and properly maintain grass. This course needs to be bought and some money siphoned into it. Green are the equivalent of putting on a cow pasture, the tee boxes are all completely un-trimmed and far from flat. This course needs someone who cares because clearly that is what’s missing.

The Greens

The greens were in poor shape, with plenty of bounces of the ball as it rolled.

Too bad..

Absolutely awesome design for the track, reminds me of dune courses back home. Everyone working the shop is so nice and accommodating. For the bad… we started on one at 2:00pm, things went smooth for maybe 4 holes until we ran into multiple groups on every hole after. Round took 4 hours and 45 minutes. I can put up with all of that, no problem, but these have to be some of the worst rolling greens in the valley, and that’s the one no for me..

Nice Course

I like the course, they could maintain the rough and off fairways better, but if you stay on the fairway, the course is well worth the money. Tees and traps always need work. For the money, its a great course for the average golfer.

Fair

The fairways were pretty decent. The greens looked moth-eaten. We had little interaction with staff so no comment. Seems overpriced but everything has gone up.

Subpar greens

Conditions have gone downhill from previous years. Greens are scruffy and bumpy. Tee boxes are ragged. Rough is rough, so no issue there. Some bunkers very hard. The only decent areas of the course are the fairways. I grade those a C because there are some bare areas, but they’re mostly playable with decent lies. Course needs to fix the greens so the ball rolls instead of bouncing and bobbling.

Disappointing

Course conditions were disappointing. The fairways were fine, but the rough was nonexistent. The greens were firm and the turf was rough, but playable. We had scheduled another round due to the reasonable cost, but cancelled after playing the rouind.

greens need work

Whoever cut the holes that day did not know what they were doing. Pins would not seat in the cup. The ranger said the holes were too deep. Some of the cups were above the edge of the hole. The greens were very hard, and putts bounced on the line to the cup. Pace of play was very good which was a pleasant surprise. We finished in just under 4 hours. The rest of the course was fine.
