Corte Bella Golf Club
About
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.

challenging my game
The course is laid out to be both difficult and forgiving. the fairways and greens weren't in as good of condition as I would expect a course with the rates for tee times that this course has. the greens had true roll but there was very little green on them and in the fairways. the bunkers were in good shape and well maintained and had the typical small stones found in many desert courses in the area.
Worth the drive
Corte Bella's layout is the standard residential/golf development style (houses down both sides of every fairway) but still offers a challenge worth playing. The fairways are generous (no concern of hitting homes, unless grossly offline) but have bunkers and other trouble in play to make you select specific targets for most tee shots. The greens were in great shape and have enough contour to make them "fun".
Nice course, fun round
Lots of bunkers with very little sand on top of mostly dirt. Greens are super fast and hard to hold, easy to miss a eight foot putt by 3-4 feet, made for interesting round and highest score of the year. Got easier as the day progressed. Will be back to try again!
Good course fun to play
This was my first time playing the course and I happened to be playing the same day they were having the club championship. This meant some very challenging pin locations on some very fast greens. Overall the staff was terrific and very helpful. Would have been great to have a beverage cart out on the course but had a great time playing. Would definitely recommend the course.
Great condition.
Course was in fantastic shape with some pretty challenging pin locations as they had the men's club championship that morning. Pace was a little slow on the front, no marshals on the course, almost 2.5 hour front. Cleared up on the back and whipped around the course. Always a good experience here with a challenging course.
Well conditioned course with consistent greens
The greens were in excellent condition, fast, consistent and true. Tee boxes and fairways are lush and well groomed. Staff is friendly and helpful. Enjoyed our round and would love to return to this course.
A delight to play
A beautiful course with lots of sand. Enjoyed being able to play a hybrid of tees for the first time through on this course. The course is located in a gated community and you will need to come in through the south entrance. Definitely on my list to come back.
Great scoring opportunity
If you can hit the ball straight and hit the right level on the greens, you have a chance to play really well. The greens are very undulating - you need to be on the correct level. The greens are fast and true with many subtle breaks and while the breaks look obvious, they often break less than expected.
Its a great day out - clubhouse worth a visit after your round.
What a treat
I use Golfnow to find courses for my wife and I to play together without spending a ton of money. Quite often, courses are over rated by people who either don't know a good golf course when they see one, or have never played a high quality golf course. Nevertheless, we have played courses that cost more money, but have not been nearly as pleasant to play. Corta Bella was an unbelievable find and a pleasuret to play. The practice facility was very nice, the staff very friendly, and the course very playable. The area had a lot of rain the night before and we were restricted to cart path only, but that is to be expected. The fairways were generous and the greens had ample undulations which made for some very interesting putts. I was very pleasantly surprised by the value that we got at Corta Bella. $ 30 for an 8am shotgon. My son is coming out next week and I will try to get back to play this course again. Oh...and it was very female friendly, which my wife enjoyed. Not a lot of forced carries for her.
Interesting greens, nice bunkering...
I enjoyed the course and found the greens to be a fair challenge. It is too short to play from the white tees if you are a solid to moderate HC, but I was paired with someone more comfortable from that distance. I probably used driver 5 times from the white tees during the round. No cart girls, very limited water access and Tuesday is Ladies Day, so it is chaos after 11 AM. Would like to try it again from the tips.
Posstive
Great course Would play it again greens have a lot of grain but you can see it. Course is over seeded for winter all aeeas have grown in nicely. Could up the speed of greens but they are true
Corte Bella - Fun Desert Course
This course was challenging, but not overly so. It was a welcome course after a day of extremes on one of the other local courses. Love desert golf!
Lush course, great value
The tee boxes, fairways and greens were in pristine condition. Probably the best conditions in the NW valley. Staff was friendly. Very nice semi-private course experience.
good value
Tricky greens, interesting course. Challenging. Lots of bunkers
Challenging but enjoyable
Corte Bella is always fun to visit! It's a "classy" club with very nice amenities. The course is very fair, but presents some fun challenges on several holes. I'll be back soon!
course is great!
Had a wonderful time playing, a little difficult, but lots of fun,
Very nice course
The course was excellent! The staff was excellent. We happened to get a special deal thru Golf now but we would pay the normal rate because the course and everything about the place was great!
Really really slow pace of play
this course would be a 5 for me unfortunately it took five and a half hours to finish 18 holes. .absolutely terrible. .overbooked and no Marshal to speed things along
A great course to play
This is a great value for the money. Every aspect of our round was first class, from the staff to the course itself. Especially appreciated the wide fairways throughout so you were not afraid of hitting a ball into someone's backyard.
Course is challenging, one has to think about every shot.
Greens were some of the best we've seen.
Look forward to a return visit in the not-too-distant future.
