Course Highlights
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.

Great day on the course!

Copper Canyon is not the most difficult course in the valley, by a longshot, but it is still reasonably challenging, well maintained, well run and the scenery is a big plus. Warning: it's a bit of a hike to get out there - but worth it. Course is friendly to all skill levels. We played yesterday and the wind and tricky pin positions made for an intereseting, fun golf day.

One of my favorite courses in the area. Have never been disappointed with Copper Canyon.

The course is beautiful

We loved this course....our first time. However, we were the last out for the day and the greens were in poor shape. It appeared that people were not repairing their divits and the greens were so soft that when previous players dropped the flag, it left impressions. Otherwise, a great experience.

course condition is outstanding and there are some very challenging holes

a weather front had moved through the area and even though conditions were extreme i could not pass up the opportunity to play this course for less than $30.00 .. have played the course in the past and feel it is slightly overpriced but it is the beginning of snowbird season in the valley ...the drive to the course can take some time

Always in great shape

Copper Canyon is by far the nicest course in the NW area of Phoenix. For most, it is a long drive but it will be worth it to anyone who chooses to make the trip. Since I am only 3 minutes away, I am very forturnate as I get to conveniently play one of the nicest and most affordable courses in Phoenix.

Very nice layout. Well maintained with challenging greens and bunkers.

Typical desert course with not much elevation change, but interesting holes. Nice greens that were fast for being overseeded. Lots of strategically placed bunkers, both fairway and greens. Plenty of room on the failways but they demanded that you think about tee shot placement. The staff was great and the pace of play was just over four hours. Good value for the money. I will definitely return.

The greens were in great condition and true.

It had been just over a year since I last played here and it was definately in much better conditon this time. The views are spectacular and the course was in great shape. I don't know what your policy is but please advise players to repair ball marks at check in and at the turn. I repaired at least 3-4 marks on each green.

Not happy!!! Course has bad rep for rushing and rude rangers!!!

3 Things ruined my round here

1) I was early and the ranger attempted to rush me out before I got to practice. At 60+ dollars a round, they should not be making their scheduling issues my problem.
2) I was put with a 3 some(4 total), and we played FAST!!! We where inside four hour playing time(I clocked it at 3:49 total). Didn't stop the ranger from giving us a hard time to make us go even faster.
3) The same ranger who tried rushed me out was rude to the one woman in my group.

This is not usually the issue with all Troon courses. I played Estrella the following day and as usual was treated very well. The group I was with, interestingly enough single, and couple I joined both complained about copper canyon on same issues. I won't play here again.

A great course in perfect condition. Nice pace of play and a staff that seems concerned that you will enjoy your round.

A bit out there distance wise but well worth the drive. One of the best I've played in awhile.

Best greens to date!

Course was in really great shape. Greens were the best we have been on. Still was cart path only and think that really hinders the flow. Wrong clubs in hand etc. looking forward to returning when carts can enter fairways. Beautiful and nice and quiet. Was breezy and chilly but still enjoyed the round. Can't wait to go back.

Asthetically pleasing

My husband and I have played this course several times and really like it. It is a public course in a "Del Webb Sun City" age restricted community that gets a lot of play mostly by the residents. Each time we have played here the course has always been in excellent condition. Asthetically, the layout and design of this course is pleasing to the eye. The very reasonable price included tee time, cart, range balls and lunch, which I beleive is only available during the off season. This should be on your list of courses to play.

Always worth the drive

Course was in great shape, not crowded in afternoon. Could be better pace if staff didn't let so many singles out right behind groups; always pressure from behind.
