Overfeeding early and no option to book the west north course on golfnow

They prepped the north 9 and stopped watering basically for overseed. Seems a little early in my opinion. No option to book the west/north on golfnow. The south 9 was a little rough as well. I wont be back until overseeding is done. I really hope Phil puts some money into this course because it could be really good.

Course conditions were brutal

Understanding that they are getting ready to overseed but 40 dollars for burned out fury greens and unkept hole cuts. Really not happy with the price that was demanded for how the course conditions were.

Don’t waste your money

The course is in awful condition. The greens weren’t completely cut. The fairways were long and several were just weeds. Pace of play was a joke. We finally played through the group ahead of us on twelve, they were four holes behind. No rangers. No beverage carts on the course. A miserable experience. Will never go back!!!!

Glad I tried it out

This course is in terrific condition for this time a year. Played south then west and enjoyed the challenge and layout. No refreshment cart at all which is kind of a bummer but all said and done, I’m def going to play again.

Met expectation for the price point.

Typical summer in Phoenix conditions; Aeriated greens, bare spots in the fairway, and no drinking water on the course. the desert areas were clean and free of excess brush. Conditions on this date were very slow. We've been playing 3.5 hour rounds and this was 4.25 hours.

Out of season, and it shows

The fairways are water-logged, too soft to compress a ball off of. The greens were punched recently and are going through their usual summer shaggyness. Give it a few weeks before booking your tee time here.

Nice desert course

Was a great course, well maintained. The Fairways were nice and green for as hot as it was. The greens were well manicured too. Will definitely play here again next time in AZ.

Slow play. 105 degrees!

I know times are odd. But you gotta get a ranger take a pass or two from time to time. C'mon. Knuckleheads that teed off 7:30 were slower than snails. Their golf course etiquette was non existent. Thank goodness we played thru them when they were 1.5 holes behind.

Have Hade Better Experiences Here

I have played Palm Valley Multiple time and normally this course is in great shape. Today was a different story. There were multiple occasions where I was penalized after hitting the perfect drive, ending up in dead/ hard pan. I understand that the times are difficult and transition was rough this year, but it was a little more than frustration. Greens were in good shape, and other than the fairways, most of the course was right on par.
