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.

Little expensive but reasonable

Nice Course

This course is worth playing if your ever around. It is semi private so getting to play it during prime season could be a little tough.

Very playable course

Well laid out course and fun to play. Golfer friendly except traps are not in great shape, to many rocks and they need sand. This is still one of my favorite courses to play.

Good Round of Golf

Corte Bella is a nice course in a 55+ community. There are houses on the course but generally they are pretty far away from the fairway. Course was in good shape. Only complaint was there were some rocks in the sand traps. Staff was friendly and I got members discount in the pro shop. Would definitely repeat.

Consultant

Corte Bella is a Treat. You are welcomed on arrival, escorted to the Pro shop, shown the range with free range balls, on the way to the range, the starter checks you in and notifies you when you are up. The range is pristine, the greens are tournament and tough.

You play a scenic course, in idyllic conditions, at a moderate pace, challenging greens, and complete a wonder day.

Great greeens

Of all the courses I have played in the Phoenix area Corta Bella has the beat greens. Not the easiest as many undulations but fast. The layout is great with a good mix of holes. Fairways and tee boxes are in great shape. Staff is great. Real country club feel.

Definitely recommend and will play again and again.
