This is the landing zone on a par 4. Brutal “fairway” lie. Photo submitted by dubjac on 09/05/2022

#5 approach shot. Cool shot with the mountain in the background. Photo submitted by ryantjeerdsma on 09/24/2013
Terrific layout
Absolutely terrific course for what money. Conditions were spectacular staff was friendly. Greens were a tad slow but nothing to complain about. Overall great time.
Pace of play was terrible, ranger tells us on the first tee we are shooting for 4 hours total, front nine takes 2 hours and 45 mins. Teed off at 1:00 PM and weren’t going to finish, left after hole 12. Took 45 minutes to play 2 holes on the back 9, ranger kept saying they were telling people to pick it up but nothing changed.
Nice and challenging
I really enjoyed the course and the layout. Greens were fast and challenging. The only downside was the ranger was polite but asked us to play faster even though we were going to finish in under 4 hours. He did not take into account the speed demons ahead of us. I will definitely play the course again.
Top Tier
McDowell Mountain is a great golfing experience. It’s a friendly, well designed tract, challenging at times but always fun. The management is very organized, keep it friendly, and made me feel welcome, which is not always what one encounters at an upscale club. Keep up the good work. .
McDowell golf
Should not have to pay for range balls at that price.
Our bartender had an attitude.
Electric golf carts were great and super comfortable.
Course was in good shape.Fairways we’re soft as a result of overseeing.Overall a good experience
Little pricey for the conditions
Was 140 bucks, which during high season is reasonable, but off a fresh overseed and CPO it was not very good value for the money . Back 9 was better than the front , overall decent but the rates should reflect the condition of the course. Putting was slow and unpredictable.
Pace of play was good, and weather was great, staff all around top notch !
Overall good course
Cart path only for over seeding which slowed play to 4:45 round. fairways and greens in good shape. Good course for intermediate players . Would recommend

Playing again next week.
Amazing
