Granite Falls Golf Club offers two courses, the North Course and the South Course. Rolling hills sprinkled with stately trees and large greens define both courses. The South Course has a challenging layout that appeals to all skill levels with four sets of tees and subtle but effective bunkering. Water comes into play on 10 holes. The golf course offers a scenic finishing hole that has two lakes, joined by a cascading waterfall with a fountain in the background. In addition to the two golf courses, Granite Falls Golf Club boasts extensive practice facilities including a short game area with a practice bunker, two putting greens, and a grass driving range with target areas.

Need a firm putt.

The course is in overall good condition. The greens require a firm putt as they are a bit slow and do not break as much as you'd think. I did not have to fix many ball marks which told me the greens were compacted which would have made me think they should be fast. I guess they are a bit fuzzy which slows them down. I played from the blues which gives you a couple of 200+ yard par threes especially when they put the flag in the back. When the wind kicks up that makes these much more difficult. There is no beverage cart service so bring your own or buy it at the snack bar. There are water fountains every few holes which is a God send in this heat.

The course is in good condition as it just came out of over-seeding. Tees through greens have shaped up nicely. There were no burnt spots anywhere. For AZ in the summer that is saying a lot. The grass seemed a bit long and the ground a bit soft, but that might be due to them getting the grass to grow back so well. The only thing I found a little odd was the putting surface. They were slow and did not hold a line well. They looked like they should be fast, but they were not. Maybe that is what put me off. Still to get the putts to go in you had to hit them very firmly. If the putt slowed down it would wander randomly. The carts are newer and very comfortable.

Fun track

Really enjoy this course. Presents a reasonable challenge. A bit pricey if you are not a resident but still like to play it.

Disappointed that the restaurant was closed for repairs. That was the case a year ago as well.

Pace of play - over 5 hours

Played here many times….however, the pace of play was terrible on 11/11/23. Over 5 hours to complete the round. The two foresome’s in front of us were the cause. A ranger final surfaced on the 16th hole and recognized the two hole gap in front of these two foresomes. He was very apologetic, but the round was nearly over at that point
