Needs some time

Overseeding time in Arizona to change to winter grass. Some areas not grown in yet and greens were very slow as not cut really close yet. Hopefully will improve in a few weeks.

course needs work

This course is not in good shape. I know that we are in shoulder/seeding season but it is not fun to play with bald dirt patches throughout the course - on most holes.

I understand that it is "cart path" only season but there is no support for disabilities (a flag allowing judicious use) so that some elderly folk can still play when they have a bad hip/knee and cannot walk great distances.

I understand that this course was really nice in the past and hope that it can be improved. It was not value for money on this occasion.

AGR (Golden Hills)

I wish I could write a really good review but there were a few things that weren’t ideal. Our tee time was scheduled for 9:04 and we didn’t tee off until about 9:30 which prolonged our game. The reason we didn’t tee off at the proper time was because we were waiting on a group (which had some of the staff that works there in it) that played the back nine first to play through. Not only that but this was also one of the longest games of golf I’ve played. The pace of play was very slow. On a positive note, the course was in decent shape and the staff was nice.

Disappointed

At the end of 18 holes we discovered our vehicle was either towed or stolen. The friendly warm staff at the beginning of the course were lovely in every way. However after discovering our missing SUV, the staff then were very dismissive and not helpful other than to say they have a parking cone that signifies vendor only parking.

This was shocking as we were confused and left out in the dark to find out the information on who towed it and why. A young parking lot attendant then told us a cone was placed by herself but unable to defend such poor signage that really didn’t indicate a tow zone.

Hence a fun day of golf turned into a stressful experience leading us to all avoid this golf course for future visits.

Not a good way to treat your Golf Patrons AGR!

Slow greens

Mow the greens. Fairways need lots of work. Understand why its cart path only.

Always struggled to be ok

There is nothing golden and there are no hills on this course. It is one of the simpler layouts in East Mesa and has never been in ‘good’ condition for the last 15 years. New ownership/management has their work cut out for them. Best thing about the course is OTG bar off 7th green. Best hole layout is 14 based on pin location. Don’t expect much, but I still play here 2-3 times/year when other courses are full.

SCUBA anyone?

Staff was super friendly. We were warned that the course was cart path only, over-seed. We were not warned that the course was extremely wet, many of the fairways had 1 or 2 inches of standing water. In places where it was not wet there wasn’t much grass. The greens were really slow. If you are going to play I recommend bringing your scuba gear or snorkel along for the swim.

Played Sunday morning

First of the fact that I got a tee time early Sunday morning was great. The course was recently seeded and it was cart path only. The greens were very slow because of re-seeding. The course itself was not hard but challenging. I enjoyed it wish is had a few less bare spots and quicker greens but I will play again.

Last round of the Summer

Had a good time golfing at this course. Course conditions were good even though it was getting ready for winter over seeding.

Know it’s overseed

I get it, it’s overseed time, that being said they shouldn’t have even been open. Even hitting out of fairway it was like hitting out the sand.
