Great Course, but no driving range to warm up on. They do have a hitting net, but with only three spots, its a little inadequate for a course this nice. The course is definitely worth doing.

Nice short course, but SLOW

The course is pretty short relative to many others. If if you can't shape your driver shots, you will find yourself knocking irons, hybrids and woods around much of the course.

On this specific day, the pace was the worst I have experienced in AZ. By the 6th hole we were 3 groups backed up on the tee and this never improved. Painfully slow.

There is no driving range, just a net. No complimentary water bottles, but water fill stations on the course.

Unbelievable

This is one of the most beautiful courses I have ever played. The views, the groundskeeping, the greens, everything blew me away. The front 9 is a traditional style while the back is exactly what you want to see if you’re looking for a desert style course. All the staff were super friendly, even the hikers walking around wanted to stop and watch you play a shot or two. For the price - I don’t think there will be another course that I will play that I can say hits the spot perfectly. PLAY THIS COURSE!

Phoenix #1

My first time visiting Arizona, loved the golf course. Although we resided at the resort, the golf staff was phenomenal. They acknowledged my 60th birthday, and partnered me with another first-timer and we explored the course together. The scenery is breath taking......

Looking forward to taking my Atlanta golf buddies!

Ups and downs.

This has some stunning views and some walking to do even if you have a cart. But it was worth it to me. I'm 70 with a pace maker. I loved this place. It was beautiful and fun to play. But if your too lazy to walk up a few hills to a green stay away. I recommend this place for the charm, beauty and the price.

Nice layout. Good value in PHX

This course was in good shape with a very good design. The second nine was particularly good. It represents a good value for winter golf in Phoenix area.

Specifically, the first 8 holes were tight with good design requiring thoughtful tee shots, not just hitting driver as far as possible.

Greens were recently aerated with small holes but very putt-able. Holes 9-18 were even better with manicured tee boxes and fairways.

Par 3's had a variety of distance with elevation changes. Hole #13 was unique in the world as a par 5 tight off the tee finishing with a 100 yard uphill approach with "church pew" bunkers on the face and 30+ yard long green.

I played the black tees as a 9 handicap and found it playable and challenging. My wife (14 hcp) played the white tees and found it great fun.

Great Staff and Course

We had a really nice time at this course while in AZ. It would not be the first course to play as it is a definite desert placement course. It was in really good shape and I thought the grounds crew had done some great work with the challenging terrain. What impressed me the most was the staff, very friendly and accommodating throughout the round and then afterwards when I noticed I lost a head cover, they went above and beyond to get it back to me. I'd go back just for the staff but the course was well worth it as well!

Good course!

Enjoyed playing the course. Staff was fantastic and friendly. Layout was a bit odd, weaving in between residential properties in some areas. Some tee boxes were a little rough and lacking full grass. Overall a great round and I would play it again.

Fun course

Really enjoy this course. Pace of play isn’t the best but not the worst. Everyone friendly and enjoy the layout however put your ego in the bag and leave driver alone on the back 9. Layups are your friend on almost every hole on the back.

Pay for 18 not cool to be pulled off course before dark

If going to enforce early closure should not be billing for 18 when course can not be completed in a reasonable time ! Ripping people off if you don’t allow them to at least play till they decide to quit due to darkness ! Course was in good shape , like the layout and cart girl did a great job of getting around for guests ! If your going to play don’t book 18 after 2pm or you will be disappointed with enforcement of early forced quit !

This is an accuracy golf course, not too long, smaller but fair greens.

Thought it was a wide open resort style course as I had not played there before however it was demanding in terms of accuracy. Greens were in good shape as were the bunkers. All in all a good test for all levels. Definitely play it again.

Great People and Fine Track

For the money during the crowded WM Open week, this was a great time. Decent conditions even with uncharacteristic weather.
