Ak-Chin Southern Dunes Golf Club

Pretty nice track. Middle of nowhere though. Carts are dog slow but cart girls make at least two passes per 9 so get ready to drink

The course is in great shape I enjoyed the round.

This was my first time around southern dunes. The layout is great. Tons of sand and some difficult sight lines. Bunkers were in great shape. Greens were a little bumpy And tough to read but it was end of season Bermuda. Would def come back and try to go lower...

1st timer, Fantastic staff from the welcome/cart guy, through the pro shop and into the beautiful Arroyo Grille! course in great shape... fairways... bunkers... greens... tee boxes. Just try and stay OUT of the bunkers and you’ll absolutely love it!!

Course was in great shape! Greens were better than expected and just a few days after being punched. We had a great time!

The "recreational" golfer will find this course very difficult. No doubt the temperature which hovered around 115 degress contributred to this challenging design. Lots of bunkers in landing area of tee shot for all levels of players and all greens heavily bunkered. I agree that the course is ranked #4 in Phoenix area. Well deserved reputation. GREAT FOOD and SERVICE with inside dining now being offered. THANKS

The course is in absolute perfect shape. The staff is always friendly and very knowledgeable. The practice faculty is always maintained as good as the course. I can’t rave enough about ACSD!

I love this course! No BS, just a great track and a great test of golf. The staff is always super friendly and professional. I've played over 80 golf courses in this state, and Southern Dunes is number one on my list, but, there is one thing...You guys should consider not using Armour All on your carts, particularly on the seats and steering wheels. That stuff really screws up the feel of golf grips. After the first two holes, I took my towel and a bottle of water to wash everything down just so I wouldn't get any on my hands, so that I could swing my clubs normally. A small thing I know, but it really makes a difference. I wonder if other players have mentioned it to the staff there. Other than that, the course is tremendous.

First time playing at this course. Course was challenging and fun. Definitely makes you choose wisely at to what club to use off the tee. Greens were in great shape, as well as the fairways and tee boxes. Except for the tips on #18. Needs work! Maintenance promptly moved out of the way and shut off machines when golfers approached. Course was in great shape for the middle of July! Can’t wait to get back and play again.

tee boxes very rough and unlevel. Fairway below par, greens impossible to hit for a par.

I would choose a different coursr right now..

Course was great, conditions were wonderful, rate of play as a single was perfect. If there was anything that could make the day better would be that the greens were a little faster. But it's Arizona and it has been 116, though today was much cooler 109. Worth the hour + drive.

Worth the drive down to play this course. Pace of play for a Saturday was awesome. Course in great shape.

Pros:

The greens had been recently punched, but still rolled well.

Plenty of bottled water on the course.

Average practice facility.

The grille food is adequate.

Cons:

The location is difficult to get to.

The course is mostly sand, with grass added.

Many mosquitoes and biting flies.

Summary:

A different cup of tea. Not for everyone.

Layout was good but definitely a faders course. Only three holes were drawers holes. Course in Good condition, pace of play was good, but got taken at the arroyos grille. $8.79 for a mediocre hot dog at the turn and $28. For 4 draft beers on the 19th hole. Unacceptable!!
