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.

Great layout (except for the distance between some tee boxes), nice views, well designed and a fair challenge IF you play from the right tees! Woman friendly.

Very playable for all Handicappers

My wife and I played the course two days in a row. An afternoon round on January 5th and a morning round on the 6th. My wife is a high handicapper and I play to an 11. The course quality was very good. The tees and fairways were very well maintained. Being winter, the course had been overseeded and so the edges were all inactive. I found the lies on the dead grass were much more difficult to get good contact because the lie tended to be quite thin. There was a nice balance on risk and reward if you can hit your aim line. The greens were fast and very subtle. It took me a while to get the pace and I never felt like I could trust my reads. We were warned to stay out of the fairway bunkers because the lips are high and so they are very penalizing. I learned my lesson the hard way nevertheless. The only complaint I have is the thinness of the sand in some of the green side bunkers I landed in. I and a couple of players I played with ended up blading some shots because our club bounded off the bunker base. I would recommend this course for anyone looking for a quality course on the west side of Phoenix.

Fav course in West Valley

I live out here in the West Valley and have played every course and this course is my favorite. I never get tired of playing it. This summer it has been in awesome condition. They have done a great job this year. I played yesterday and even though they are preparing for overseeding, the course was still in good shape and the greens were soft. I rarely play this course in the fall/winter due to the higher cost but in the summer, this is my Sunday afternoon go-to course.

This course is hard to beat!

Had a great time again! Paired up with a twosome along the way and we moved along at a nice pace. From the tee boxes to the greens the course was in fantastic shape. Staff was extremely helpful and friendly and the rate was very reasonable for such a fun course. Beautiful water features and mountain views. I am looking forward to my next round here!

Worth the Drive

Haven't played the course in 13 months and back then there were no homes on the course. The course was great back then and you guys even made it better. Only golf course I have played this summer where you would have to fix pitch marks and the ball would check and back up. Generous fairways and greens in top notch condition. Staff all top notch including Ken, (who we were partnered with and works there), great guy and ambassador to your facility. Would it be asking to much to move that course about an hour drive to the east.

Awesome course

Course in great condition. Some of the sand traps in bad shape from the rain storm the week before but overall awesome course to play for our first time. The best course I've played in AZ thus far. The staff was very helpful and courteous. We even got a free lunch and unlimited play for the round as well. The top of my GC list in AZ. Plan to play again in the near future.

What great conditions

It's a Troon Course. I have never played a Troon course that wasn't in top condition. The greens were the fastest I have played on in a good while. They also held shots well and I had to actually repair a few ball marks! The cart attendant was very helpful, as it was our first time playing this course. It now moves to the very top of my list of favorite courses in the Phoenix area.

Best in the West

Played this course for the first time in Aug and it is the nicest course in the West Valley for sure. Fairways are very forgiving and the greens are very large. There is not a lot of break on the green but they are protected by a lot of sand which makes it challenging. These were the best greens I've played all summer and I play every week. Every approach shot bit well which is very unusual for a AZ summer. They treat you extremely well here.

Another great Troon course

Its hard to go wrong with a Troon Course. Course was in great shape and had some nice quirks to it. Greens were really soft - Only got six inches to a foot of roll no matter what club I hit into the green. The ball rolled real pure on the green.
