Great pre-pay deal through Golfnow.

Nothing spectacular about the course, but overall a good course for a good price. Elevation change, long par three's, minimal water is an accurate summary of the course as a whole. Playing from the tips at 7000 yards feels longer than that, do yourself a favor and move up a tee box.

Excellent course at a fair price

This course is well laid out with minimal interference from housing. There are numerous tee box selections to fit any skill level. The white tees offer a challenge even at 6200 yds. The inside staff is friendly and helpful. The only negative was that the rental cart was dirty and slow. Bring your brain as this course requires some thought if you want to post a decent score. No cookie cutter holes here. Each one is unique,fun and visually pleasing. Greens were AAA+++. They rolled true but weren't stupid fast.The rest of the course was very well conditioned with equal eye appeal. Overall, a better course than anything within ten miles in any direction.

Great course(Palms) for the money

I always like playing here, it is a great course for the money and not too far from anywhere in Phoenix. Keep in mind I am talking about the Palms course, I have never done the executive course.

Extremely slow play.

Course in great shape but, management overbooking caused excessive backups. Tee-time at 12:38, finished at 5:45. 3 groups behind us eventually turned around and quit due to the slow play. When i asked the Ranger about the 5-some upfront he shrugged his shoulders and said don't tell anyone! The 5-some in front of us,i found out, included the GM of the Facility! Who do i complain to, the Ranger? Don't go to this course after 12 noon. You'll probably never finish. Restaurant closed at 3pm.

Great course but even better when overseed comes in...

The executive course was great and staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The greens were pretty rough because the overseed had not yet come in but was sitting on top still. Give it a few weeks and it will be great!

Okay, no GPS, No Ice Chest, No ball wash on cart.

Played three course over the week, this was the least liked by out of town guest. Not very attractive layout for him. Course was in fine shape and greens good. Could not drive on course because of over seeding so had to do a lot of walking. Understandable but this was the only course we could not drive on when all courses are overseeding.

Nice Florida course

Course was recently over-seeded and rough was 3-4 inches...Not fun. Layout is typical Florida style. Flat with lots of humps and bumps along the sides, except that the last 6 holes have some interesting elevation changes.

Beautiful course

This is what I like a golf course to look like. The greens are short and well kept a d the fairways are short and actually have green grass. This is hard to find in Arizona. Unless you pay a small fortune. Great golf experience.

Short course

This is the first time I played this course. It was a short 61. The course staff was getting ready to shut down for overseeding so the rates were amazing. However, due to the lack of vegetation, the greens were very fast. Great beginner course.

Lakes Course

I played the Lakes Course. This course is an executive length course, but is still fun and challenging enough. You can play in 3 hours or less. Course was in pretty good shape. Great course to take your wife and/or kids.
