Morning view down the Par-5 5th fairway. A strong drive, especially to the center-right fairway, sets you up to go for the green in two! Photo submitted by vmustang on 04/25/2021

Interesting Course
First time playing this course. Enjoyed it immensely. Open fairways with various challenges.
This is a great course hidden away in downtown Chandler.
Don’t forget to check out Capone’s Corner for a quick drink or snack. It’s right on the course.
Good Value
Both Tees & Greens were core aerified and top dressed with sand but for $40 it’s a good value.
Course maintenance is needed
Despite the courses' historic significance to the state, this track needs a major overhaul or they could just raise it and build parking lots or condos. It was Sunday and the pace was slow, but no marshal on had to try and keep play moving. Every trash bin on the course was filled to the brim. The greens had been recently aeriated and it is never fun to play on sand filled waffle irons. All the bunkers need work, either real sand in them or in one case fix the water situation so it is not filled to make another water hazard.
Traditional park layout
A fun traditional park layout with large shade trees and canals cris crossing several holes. Pace of play is always good. Very nice bunkers. Greens and tee boxes were good. Fairways were average. Pro shop and cart girl were friendly. The biggest downside is the lack of a true driving range-- you need to use limited flight balls and cannot use any woods.
Fun Course
A traditional style golf course not many in Phoenix Az a fun course to play. Great staff nice accommodating.
fun to play and ADA friendly
The course is wide open but with plenty of trees so you can find shade if you have to wait between shots. There is a creek that crosses 6 fairways that adds a little complexity and most greens are guarded by bunkers on two sides leaving narrow openings. Fairways were average for a public course but the rough didn't have a lot of grass and a few of the greens had some damage but on balance it was a decent course and good value for the price. The pro shop staff were welcoming and outdoor staff were friendly. They have blue flags for handicapped golfers and the course works well for one who has difficulty walking any distance.
Good course for the money
We had a great time at San Marcos, the pace of play was really good.
Firm Fairways
The pace of play was a bit slow for me. The fairways are a bit firm so you will get some roll. The greens are faster than they look. I would avoid the bunkers, they are pretty hard.
Bhaaahaaaa
5 hours and 15 minutes on this GOAT RANCH??? And staff is worthless...
NEVER AGAIN!
I like this course
This was my first time here and I will definitely be back. The staff was really friendly, the clubhouse and course layout were really nice.
As for the round, I played poorly, seemed my ball had a magnet to the bunkers, which brings up my only complaint, the sand was wet and hard and very tricky to get out of. Other than that, the course was in great condition.
