Great conditions... horrible POP

The course is in fantastic shape, however the pace of play continues to be awful! 5 hours minimum even during the week! Reminder.. women's league on this course on Fridays around 8-9am. The rest of the day will be incredibly slow. They cram as many people as possible onto this course! Tee times always start late and they even had the nerve to cram a 2some in front of us that wanted to cut in front of us. You'll see a cart girl out a few times which is nice, but you won't see a marshall moving things along. It's the wild wild Mesa!

Great course, terrible pace of play

Takes at least 3 hours to move through the front 9….if it want for that would play much more often. Every round her takes 5 hours, other than that this place is awesome. Wish they would do something about pace of play.

Seriously

On the first tee there where 4 groups of 5 somes going out in front of us. I asked the starter if this was a policy now and he said “ if he knows the players ( meaning his friends) he will let them out as a 5 some. “ They really don’t slow up play”. My normal 5:15 round went up to 6 hours. This is ridiculous and completely disrespectful to the other golfers that game to enjoy their day.

This is out of hand and the GM needs to be held accountable for this!

Gun layout but the pace of play is still a major issue

Fun courses with challenging setups. They are actually pretty fun to play. With that being said I just can't come here anymore, they do nothing to keep pace of play moving. There were multiple times that we had 3-4 groups waiting at a tee box. It's a short course and should be easily played in 4 hours. This round was near 6 hours. Started at 1145am and almost didn't finish do to the sun setting. Not how I want to spend my money. Get it together and I'll come back.

Solid course but terrible pace of play

I like this course a lot. Would play here more often but it’s a little a little tough to get a tee time without being a member. It’s a solid value and course conditions are always good. The one issue I have here is pace of play. Ive played here around 10 times and I can’t remember if I’ve ever had anything under a 5 hour round. They’re usually backed on the first tee and the pathetic thing is that they have a starter. I played yesterday and it was a disaster. They were 30 minutes behind and 4 groups waiting on the first tee. Inexcusable imo. Other than the staff not being on top of things and more organized, the course itself is very enjoyable.

👍🏼 Get your moneys worth

Great round for the price. Tee off early to beat the back ups that cause long rounds. Course Marshalls could do a better job controlling traffic. Tee’s off a little after 7 and was done in 4 hours.

Sloooooooowwwwww

3 hours to play the first 9. 3 foursomes waiting to tee off at 2, 3, and 4. Took 20 minutes to play the first Par 3. Ridiculous. Will NEVER play again. 4 hours to play 12 holes then it got dark. They need to get their business together.

Pace of Play

It seemed like there could be something done in getting the foursomes in front of about 8 foursomes' . They ere the ones holding up play . Or perhaps just puting groups to close together. I've been playing this course for 40 years, this was the worst. I would only recommend this course with the caveat , very slow play.

Double charged

Set my tee time through golfpass or gold now whatever, because that's what the course uses. The confirmation for a tee time didn't go through fast enough and you seriously need to wake up at 5:59am a week before to get a tee time at a decent time. Since I got no confirmation I set up another tee time. Not ongoing I had two tee times. I showed up. Played my round. It was the weekend after my borthday sp like a good friends i have they paid my round. A month after the round. Costa mesa went into my account and took out the full cost of a four person round. When I called to explain they said take it up with golf now. Golf now called them explained the situation and they said charge him. The guys name was Pete. I tried calling them again and they refused to refund me because they said I need to cancel my teetimes. For that I have not returned and I will not. No one in my group goes there anymore. We changed courses until they fix this situation. This used to be our home course. And out of all the people I play with. Im the only one that cancels tee times. These guys say they never do, and yet they never got charged either.
