beautiful day for golf

It was nice to be out with good friends to enjoy the beautiful day to play golf. the course was not in the best shape. But considering the circumstances with covid-19 the staff was very friendly and working to improve the conditions.

They’re open!

Tee boxes, fairways & first cut of rough were in pretty bad shape on most holes. No score cards or signs at tee boxes made judgment on shots difficult. Also unclear what yardages few yardage markers there are put you at. Glad this course is open but could use some fine tuning

Dry as a bone

Dry as a bone

I really like this course and played a lot. But I can’t read it very high. It’s been quite fully even more things of been really dry. I guess because grass seed is down and they’re waiting for it to come up. So the fairways are not in very good shape and the course is dry as a bone. The good news, the greens are so hard I didn’t have to fix a ball mark all day.

I know times are tough but this is sad

I enjoy the layout of this course even with some of the quirky holes. I know it’s early in the season and the virus is killing business but the shape of this course is the worst I have seen in the area. There are bare tees of nothing but dirt, the fairways are like concrete, and the cart paths are falling apart. I wouldn’t know where to begin to fix it. At least they haven’t aerated yet so the greens still putt well.

Slim Pickings

Played this course for the first time this week. The staff is very friendly and saw them sanitizing carts. The course is in ROUGH condition (the tee boxes were rock-hard dirt. It was cart path only due to everyone required to take their own cart during Coronavirus but there’s no fairways to protect. The holes are dead straight aside from a few rare occasions. Only positives: friendly staff, greens were OK. Overpriced at $30

It is! What it is!?

Good to play!!!! Cart path only?? Bring a pen and paper. Old scorecard would work! None available . I get it! Heads up on both would have been nice! In conclusion, Go & get after it! Course is none the worse nor the better! Since, the cable cart stopped from 11 up to 12 th hole. Still, one of the best par 3 in the metro! If you need ? A feel good booster round! It’s in a valley & possible Paridise for your game

Par for this course

Nothing too good or bad to say about the course itself. Employees/amenities are not great. Players on course seemed tense/quick. Probably wouldn't go back unless a deal popped up.

Wet but fun

Went after a big rainstorm and the course was soaked - like moving water in some fairways soaked. That significantly reduced pace of play and I can’t blame the course for that.

Overall I really enjoyed it though. The scenery alone beats the heck out of golf in the city, and I’ll be back next time I am in the area.

A tale of two nines.

Paradise Valley is good value for the average golfer. The front nine is relatively short, flat, and simple. In contrast, the back nine is longer, hilly, and challenging. Back nine has some very picturesque. Staff was friendly and accommodating.

Review of 7/6/2012, Paradise Valley

Greens were in good shape but a little slow. Fairways were ok but there were rough spots here and there.

Overall it was OK but I am not sure it was worth 38 dollars.

Greens were nice

The condition of the greens were the best part. Very pleased with that and the staff. The course layout is a bit odd. Takes some course knowledge to play well here. I would go there again compared to other courses in the area for the money.
