Cottonwood Golf Club - Ivanhoe Course

I was a single from Ohio that joined three locals. I visit every year and Cottonwood is on the rotation of courses I play when visiting. Had an enjoyable round. Only problem was we waited on every tee box. But the weather was nice and enjoyed the view of the snow on the mountains.

I didn’t expect 5 star experience but some basic amenities aren’t out of the question. Wanted a pull cart so I could walk. None left. How about hitting some balls on the range beforehand? Nope, no balls left.

Course conditions? Greens acceptable. The rest of it? Deplorable

Pace was horrific, sooooo slow. I finally gave up after hole 16 and drove to the exit.

Won’t return not worth the aggravations

I am one of the regulars out there. I love to play and socialize with the staff and other golfers.

Terrible conditions everywhere on this golf course.

Zero maintenance throughout the place

No rest rooms anywhere on the course

Fairways are dead , just dirt mostly

Greens half dead too ! No one ever repairs divits, holes everywhere.

I am a regular out there. I show up 3-4 times a week. If I dont get on and play I will spend a couple hpurs just practicing and eating lunch at the bar. I love the staff. Makes it feel like home away from home. I am disabled and got into playing golf from John Klein. He is now a very good friend and backup to any golf questions. It would be nice if you guys had some best ball scramble tournaments :-) LOVE those.

From the time I walked in to the pro shop I was impressed with the staff. They were extremely welcoming and friendly. Willie, the starter, was especially warm and friendly. I left my cell phone behind when I left. When I returned to find it, Willie did everything he could to find it. Eventually we were able to track it down on the course where Willie drove me out to pick it up. I am so grateful to him.

The fairways are in poor conditions. No one repairs the green divots. Sand traps were just dirt , no Sand there. One porta potty on the entire course.

Little to no maintenance though out the course. The pace of play was extremely slow. It took 5 hours and 30 minutes plus to play. They obviously over book the course.

I enjoy playing Cottonwood, but this time the course was really backed up. One or two groups at every tee. Normally that is not the case here. We'll still return in the future.
