Copper Canyon delivers consistently well-maintained fairways, fast greens, and a challenging yet approachable layout that blends desert and city course styles. Friendly Troon staff and smooth pace of play make this one of the Valley's best values.

The course at Copper Canyon Golf Club is deceptively exclusive in that although the club has prestige and a luxurious atmosphere, there are some reasonably priced tee times. The layout features an interesting mix of holes that offer panoramic views of the White Tank Mountains to the south. The large, undulating greens that are framed by generous fairways are the trademark of the course. Water hazards come into play on a few holes and there are also sand bunkers situated throughout. This golf course offers four sets of teeboxes. Copper Canyon Golf Club has extensive practice facilities for golfers to use as well, including a full length driving range with several target greens, a large practice putting green, and a short game area with a bunker.

EXCELLENT GREENS GREAT SHAPE

Well worth the drive, incredible shape great greens. Very consistent rolled true and held every approach shot, just wish the course wasn't so far away. Great deal for the money, with the conditions they could easily charge more, but because it is well over an hour drive away from the city.

Summer round

First impression upon arrival was poor. The supposed bag drop attendant on duty was not to be seen. However the rest of the day was very good. Practice facility is better than most. Amply sized practice putting green, driving range, and the chipping and sand trap practice area helped greatly after having not played for some time. Greens were smooth and fairly fast. Fairways were middling as the grass was burn away in a lot of areas. Overall it was great value for the money and i'll definitely return.

Love the Greens!

Cooper Canyon is my favorite course in the west valley. I would normally give the course all 5 stars but the fairways were dried out in quite a few places and this made for some extremely tight lies. The greens were in excellent condition as always. We played on a day when the wind was blowing 15-25 miles an hours so the course was a bit more challenging than usual, but it was fair. If you have never played CC, now is a time to do so.

Great morning of golf!!

We were the first tee time out at 6:30 on Thursday 7/9/15. The staff was great as well as the range and putting green. We were playing as a 2 some and finished the first 18 in under 3 hours. Because of the all you can play special we were able to play 27 holes before 11 A.M. I have played a wide variety of courses the last couple of months all around the valley and Copper Canyon was in the best shape overall of any of the previous courses played this summer.

Yes, it is one heck of a drive but well worth it in my opinion. The course is in great shape, the staff is awesome, and the facilities are top notch. I will definitely be back.

Greens were near perfect. Bunkers need work; inconsistent.

I would not be discouraged from playing this course again solely based on inconsistent bunkers and fairways needing water to bring back grass.

Great course design. Greens were immaculate on the day we played. Wide fairways but lots of trouble if you miss them and end up in the desert.

Fantastic Greens

If you enjoy putting you'll enjoy this course. The greens were in excellent condition and fast. Unfortunately the same can't be said about the fairways, they were brown and dry. Still in all a very nice course.

Great course

It was over 100 degrees so pace of play was not an issue! Wide fairways, what you see is normally what you get (a couple holes have water you can't see on tee). Greens are excellent - roll exceptionally well. Weather has taken a toll on fairways but still a beautiful layout. Fun to play.

course beautiful but greens were not

I've always loved this course but this time we did not enjoy it, we were paired with another couple, but before tee off we were told we were a twosome, that couple teed off ahead of us and held us up for 9 holes very rude, course was very spongy, greens were fast but very bumpy and soft, cups were a mess edges all rounded over, overall playing time was within reason, but we would have finished a half an hour earlier except for the couple ahead

Nice layout

First time playing course front nine fairly straight forward and not very interesting. Back nine makes up for the front. Fairways in avg shape as they are making the transition to the Bermuda is not coming is as well as planned. Greens in good shape pace of play was bad as several novice golfers were on the course. Would recommend but be prepared for a 4 1/2 round

GolfNow Trick for Copper Canyon

I think I would have enjoyed this course a lot more if I hadn't learned that they aerated the greens until AFTER I made my reservation on Golfnow. I enjoyed the course and played with one of it's members. The fairways were in pretty good condition, and I think the greens will be pretty good in a few weeks. The bunkers were terrible - they were like cart paths with a little sand sprinkled on them.

I prepaid thru golfnow and played for $20. I thought it was a pretty easy course for good golfers and a pretty difficult one for bad golfers. The course and clubhouse are both immaculate.

Normally great course

Troon is known for quality golf courses, however, the bunkers were an embarrassment. They would not be acceptable on a muni course. When the course conditions cause you strokes, that is not good.

another well maintained Troon property

First time I have played Copper Canyon and I was not disappointed. I was looking for a quality round of golf with good customer service and an acceptable pace of play. That is exactly what we got. Copper Canyon was well managed and well maintained. Staff was great from the bag drop to the ranger keeping the pace of play on time. Greens, fairways, and tee boxes were all consistent. Thank you for a nice round of golf.
