McDowell Mountain Golf Club

I would definately play here again. Very friendly staff and the course was in great shape.

Course was dry and hard on this day, likely due to unseasonably warm conditions. Some staff in the pro shop and food service must have been having a bad day. Back shop staff was excellent though.

not my favorite, but would play again! It had some interesting holes.

A Strong 4 star course that has some nice holes. The fairways are wide, greens were very fast and course was in excellent condition.

Nice course that is in wonderful condition. Enjoyed the challenge but was not to difficult. Certainly would play again.

The green were not in very good conditions and septic system odor was terrible near the cart building and side patio.

Nice spot. Greens need lots of golfers who will repair theirs and 4 more. Layout solid and tough enough from the copper tee's. Overall a good experience.

Nice experience! But not worth 100$ though! Bang for the buck better courses are available! Sorry!

Played this course for the first time in Feb with some buddies. The course was in great shape all around, except for some greens that had a lot of ball marks on them. I think this is more related to the type of grass/underlay of the greens as even when you fixed your ball mark it still seemed to scar quite a bit - in most cases it was more of a visual thing and didn't affect the roll of the ball. We enjoyed this course - for most holes you could see what was in front of you off the tee and plan your shot accordingly - most of the greens were viewable from the fairway so you could tell the shape/depth of them on your approach shots. Pace of play was good without being rushed and we finished in just under 4 hours on an early morning weekday round. The course was fun to play and well designed while being moderately tough. Would definitely play again.

Only got to play 9 holes due to illness, but very enjoyable course. Want to play again.

course was in good shape. Restaurant is a great way to finish the day.

Really, charge for range balls when you are playing and not practicing.

You can't beat this course on Scottsdale. Great staff, scenic views, and playable for a desert course.

No gps on carts and little to no yardage markings on the fairways. Very disappointing .

I try to play on every trip to Arizona.
Range and range balls are excellent.

The course was a fun track. Gave you a lot of opportunities to think, risk reward scenarios. Pace was great. Conditions of the greens were great, as were the fairways. We stayed for dinner and the food and service were good too. As we ate on the patio , the sun went down. The elevated view of the course gave you a spectacular vista of the Phoenix lights skyline. I've been to Phoenix 3 times to golf and had never given the course a try till this year. We enjoyed the first round we did the replay discounted option and played another 18. I will go again in the future.

This course was very well maintained and the staff was very friendly and helpful.. The course was quite easy and not too challenging. A couple comments were made about the power lines and they did NOT come into play unless you pulled you shot to the extreme on two holes. Enjoyed and would return at a discounted rate.

Booked an 8:16 tee time for a foursome on a Sunday, finished ahead of pace, and decided to play another 18 holes (as a threesome). We played behind another threesome most of the 2nd round, but still finished before 4:00 (under 8 hours for 36 holes) - above average pace for a Sunday in February. Fairways and greens were in great shape. The only criticism I have is the sand traps. Many did not have a lot of sand, and had quite a few small rocks / large pebbles. Had to move 2-3 of these little stones away from my ball a couple of times in order to avoid dings in my sand wedge. In more traps than usual because there are a number of short par-4s guarded with traps, so we were swinging for the seats whenever these holes came up. Made the course more fun, although no one reached a par-4 green off the tee.
GolfNow rate was about $120. The course's policy states the replay rate is 60% of the initial fee. Fair value for the two rounds. Enjoyable course (much more so than when it was Sanctuary). I'd play it again.

The only upside to a cancled flight home was the opportunity to play another round of golf. Happened upon this course last minute via GolfNow. Course was in great shape and offered a challenge; setup like a rolling oasis in the desert. Fairways plush, tee boxes pristine and the greens were fast and rolled true. That said, some of the greens were littered with ball-marks although i blame the inconsiderate players, not the course. Clubhouse and bar very nice too.

I was disappointed in that it would have been cheaper to call the course directly for the golf but the desert layout did impress my out of town visitor. refreshment cart made party of it. Patio sunset was awesome.
