Great Day at the old course

Fair to Middling Course Conditions

Course is in okay shape, but not great. Seems like there should be a minimum acceptable condition for courses in this price range and this one is falling just short. We’ve seen better quality from this place before and I’m sure we will again. They’re just going through a tough spell at the moment, I guess.

Closed the snack shop at 2 pm with numerous players on the course. Water coolers empty on a 112 degree day, won’t be back to play here.

First Time Playing

Extremely slow and very crowded.

Played here for the first time and pay a play was extremely slow. It took us over five hours to make it around the course. Also, the layout is very condensed and we had balls flying into our fairway several different times. Even at one point I was on the Teebox getting ready to tee off at a ball, rolled up and hit my feet from another fairway.

no warning no head up

I have played this course many, many times over the years-and the course is always in great playing condition.However, there were no warning or heads up that they were aerating fairways and some greens. The first two holes were next to impossible to play. With that being said: Staffs and faculty where great.

Good Value

San Marcos is an older traditional style course with many large shade trees lining each fairway. It’s a great layout and a good test. I just happen to catch it on a weekend when they were core aerifying and sanding the greens. For $40 bucks it was worthwhile and I would go back

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 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.
