Ak-Chin Southern Dunes Golf Club
About
Stretching over 320 acres in the southwest area, Ak-Chin Southern Dunes Golf Club (previously known as Royal Dunes) transforms mostly flat terrain into a challenging course that uses practically twice the amount of land a standard course. The course incorporates superb landscaping featuring towering mounds and hollow valleys for an interesting and scenic game. This desert golf course has wide fairways and generous landing areas. The dunes-style layout requires precision from tee to green. The difficulty of the golf course lies within the deep, strategically placed sand bunkers, multi-tiered greens, and native grass roughs. Ak-Chin Southern Dunes Golf Club provides adequate challenge for players of any skill level.

Awesome day.
Best course I have played in AZ by far. Great sand in the bunkers which a lot of course lack. Best greens I have ever played on. Staff friendly and helpful in every way. Going back tomorrow..
Excellent greens and pace of play was 4 hrs
Greens in excellent condition, they don’t break as much as they look like they would. Fairways are generous and firm, bunkers well placed. Be sure to play the right tees as course plays longer than posted yardage! Greens are skinny and require precise iron approach shots. Freddy couples rewards soft cut shots from right handed players at his course, but beware don’t try to cut the doglegs too much as water and sand awaits wayward shots
Great course conditions
Southern Dunes is by far the best course in the Maricopa/ Casa Grande area. Greens, fairways, rough were in fantastic condition. Bunkers, and there are a lot of them, we're all raked and in great condition. A few tee boxes were alittle dried out but no big deal. We teed off at 2:40 knowing we probably wouldn't get 18 holes in but only missed playing the last hole so pace of play was great. Got twilight rate so the value was very good. Overall a great course, to bad the wind got up on the back 9.
