Ak-Chin Southern Dunes Golf Club

I highly recommend this course! Great conditions for June and very helpful staff. Will definitely play again!

Unfortunately the greens were absolutely atrocious. The course shouldn’t even be open with greens like that. Horse flies and mosquitoes were a problem as well. They did have bug spray, but still an issue. We expressed our disappointment with the greens and staff was generous enough to offer us a rain check even though we had already played 14 holes. We decided to finish since it was so far away from where we live. I love the course layout, but wasn’t worth paying money in the condition it’s in.

Southern Dunes is an amazing course in the middle of nowhere, just 20 minutes south of Phoenix. This course is always in great shape with a staff that does everything they can to make you feel welcome. It ranks right up their with the best of the Troon courses in Arizona.

First, this is a really, really nice and challenging course. Bring your sand wedge. You may be giving it quite a workout. Great options for tee boxes. Super long, long, medium.

However there are two problems right now. One, The greens, which are normally perfect, got punched last week. Putting is nearly impossible right now.

The other problem is mosquitos. They assault you the second you get out of your car. Clouds of them. Bring extra bug repellent. But even if you do, and apply liberally 2-3 times, they will still be all over you like a cheap suit every step of the way.. Depending on your psychological makeup, the mosquito problem exists along a continuum beginning at “they will subtract from your experience” all the way to “they will drive you stark raving mad. “

Again, great course. Challenging and fun layout. Usually in super good shape. But I won’t be going back for a little while.

One of the best courses in the state. Tough but fair.

Course was in excellent shape but I played in heavy wind and found a good number of the many many bunkers on the course

The course was in great shape and the Customer Service was 2nd to none! Will definitely play again.

Top rate facility spoiled by an insane number of bunkers.

Really enjoyed my first round at this course. While a little bit of a hike from Scottsdale I’ll be sure to play again. The course was challenging, many holes well bunkered, but not excessively difficult. A lot of fun when compared to your average vanilla course.

Awesome layout kept in pristine condition. Greens were in great shape and rolled true. Top notch practice area. Worth the $$ and the drive out of town.

Excellent course, friendly staff a must play if you are in the Phoenix area

Extremely challenging course, made even tougher by morning tournament and sun baked greens. By the time I teed off at 2PM it was nearly unplayable for a golfer of my ability; 9 handicap. The approaches are well guarded by numerous deep bunkers and unless you could land your approach at least 2 to three paces short the greens simply would not hold.

The real deal breaker though were the mosquitoes. We finally quit after 14 holes because they were unbearable. A gentleman in the locker room was covered with dozens of dime sized welts where he had been bitten right through his golf shirt.

Extremely windy day which created dust storms. Should have been given option for refund given course was basically unplayable. Small, hard packed greens made it a bit unfair. Staff very helpful.

From the staff helpfulness to the course itself, this is a class operation all the way around. The layout was challenging and the course conditions were excellent. Can't ask for a better place to play golf!

We player in 4 Hours 15 on a very well préparer course.

The course has a lot of bunkers and is very well designed.

Staff is very useful and friendly. À top golf expérience.

Awesome course to play in Southwest part of PHX area! Great conditions!

Great greens. Fairways were in very good shape. The rough is “rough”. The fairways are all heavily bunkered and with the bounce off desert fairways, they catch a lot of drives. Overall a very good experience.
