The course at Corte Bella Golf Club was done in a desert style but avoids the target greens and forced carries that are at some desert courses in the area. It has a classic layout on a beautiful terrain of ficus, Italian cypress, and oleander, creating a scenic ambiance. The designer, Greg Nash, kept traditions of classical golf architecture in mind and made a course that champions the strategic player. Both the immaculately manicured greens and the wide fairways are well protected by bunkers on this course, making accuracy on the approach shot a priority. Water hazards come into play on three holes at Corte Bella Golf Club.

Golf Corta Bella

The Staff was wonderful. We went off first for the day, and we moved right along 3.5 hours. A few of the fairways were dried out, but the greens were nice. I would go back again. Wish it was a little less expensive, at least in the summer.

Corte Bella Summer

The course was in good shape. The greens were pretty good and should be really good in about a week or so. The sand traps need some attention but that is the same in all of the west valley courses. The staff members we engaged with were all extremely friendly and helpful.

Definitely will play it again soon.

fun layout

I've played here before and will certainly play here again. the layout is terrific and the staff is always friendly led by Tyson? in the proshop. however, keep in mind that this area has had a lot of rain recently and the fairways certainly show it. that will certainly improve as the weather dries up. the only surprise, which may be weather related, is the bunkers certainly need more sand. thankfully i was only there twice. of course i will come back

Very nice course for a good price

Booked a 11am t time to save a few bucks. Came out to 32$ a person with free range balls. Well maintained course, greens were punched two weeks ago but wasn’t bad. Pretty wide fairways, lots of bunkers, hardly any water. Very nice course considering the price is similar to most sun city courses that are not nearly as good. Will be back

Corte Bella

First time playing Corte Bella.......Staff was welcoming and friendly, the range was well supplied. The course played well, only a few bad spots, but we just had some heavy rain a week ago. All over a very good experience. I would go back.

Nice amenities!

104F feels like 114F makes outdoor recreation a bit difficult, but this is a very nice course and the staff and extras are noteworthy. Coolers on the cart with ice are a welcome benefit at this course. Pace of play was slow, and the greens are in the process of re-seeding, but all in all, I enjoyed the day. The tunnel between the 17th and 18th hole was a wonderful breezeway to cool off while waiting to tee off. Shade and trees are traded for a lot of sand bunkers that are dry, high lipped and difficult to escape, but luckily I was able to avoid most of them.

Rough shape

Course has a lot of potential. However these were my thoughts after playing:

1. First stop was the putting green and it was representative of the rest of the greens. Awful. They were clearing working on them but we played in the morning and after every putt you had to wipe a ton of sand off your ball.

2. Fairways were not consistently in good shape. You could hit a drive right down the middle and end up on a dirt patch.

3. Tee boxes were fine but in my opinion the grass should be cut shorter on them, a little long compared to the places I’m used to.

4. Staff was friendly.

5. Restaurant left a lot to be desired.

6. They did acknowledge when I got there that it was a bit rough and gave me a $25 dollar bounce back coupon for next time. But upon further inspection it has to be used before September 1st and on a tee time after 9 am. Well in the Phoenix summer I rarely tee off that late so I doubt it’ll get used.

Poor Shape

The course had been recently aerated, both the greens and fairways. Lot's of bare spots. The over-seeding didn't take well at all. Sand bunkers were rock hard. A lot of rough was dead pan. I wouldn't recommend playing this course until everything fills back in. Very disappointed.

Punched & Top dressed 7/12-14

Greens were punched & top dressed earlier this week as well as other areas being plugged. Of course putting suffers & you might find fairway balls resting in hole from plugged fairway…..it seems like a few of the courses are doing this type of maintenance at this time of year. It kinda is what it is. Sand traps could use a lil attention but there seems to be plenty of sand in the traps for the most part. Plenty of water & ice on the course. Once the course heals up from the recent maintenance it should be really nice.

Greens in Poor Shape

Greens and fairways were in extremely poor shape due to patches of dead or dying grass. The practice green was almost unusable, but it did make the rest of the greens seem better by comparison.. This course is usually in much better condition, so not sure what is going wrong this year.
