Golfer Reviews
Course conditions a big issue
Always have enjoyed playing out here. Everything around the course is good but conditions are almost unplayable. I’ll wait until I see multiple positive reviews on the conditions before coming back out
Not a fun round
The entire course is in bad shape. Tee box to greens there was more dirt than grass.
Baked out and brutal greens
Had played TPC Scottsdale Champions Course after flying in for a vacation and had time for a second round of the day. Looked dry as I teed off and then found naked out fairways that resembled brown dirt. Got to the first green and they were punched with heavy times and not enough sand to fill the holes. Should have walked off but decided I was on vacation and to try and enjoy the rest of the round. Should have gone to my resort and had beer and swim in the pool. They should not allow people to even show up and pay money to be on the property.
Always good. Dried out fairways right now. Still enjoyed the round, but had a few crunchy lies in the fairway. Greens are in good shape. It’s a tough course from the black tees. Amazing views from the tee boxes. During the winter months this is an absolute gem and highly recommend.
DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY.
Over 50% of the fairways on the front 9 arnd 30% on the back 9 are burned out., the greens are half dirt and won’t hold a ball, and the bunkers contain more rocks than sand. The course has a nice track but is horribly unmaintained. Not planning to return..
Course is definitely used up for the season
Slow play, practice area is in bad shape, fairways are in rough shape, lots of burnt areas, so for value I would definitely look elsewhere
McDowell Mountain Golf
Playing at noon. No outside staff around. I had to find my way around. No cart staff on the course. Water was available at most holes.
Great Course, Wish I Knew About it Sooner
First time playing this course and I was pleasantly surprised. I got paired up with 3 awesome people and it made the round even more enjoyable. Tough layout but kept it interesting and not impossible to shoot a low score. I’ll definitely play this again during the summer, but probably not during season because I never really believe in the exorbitant prices for some of the ‘nicer’ courses like this one. But absolutely a value during the hotter months.
Great course
Really enjoyed playing and would definitely come back. Greens were in great shape and since we were the 3rd group off, pace of play was amazing.
