Always a great day to come out and Tee Off.
Only can play 5800 to 6100 and the game is enjoyable.
Tee boxes almost flat , Fairways good, Greens were faster as they dry out “ Great shape.
Hot Dogs are the best stop after 9 or 18 holes.
Course is improving.
The course keeps getting better. A few of the greens have bare areas but in overall good condition. Plenty of grass in the fairways. Course has improved over the past few years.
Played this couple 5or 6 times this year
Always enjoy it
Poor course conditions and poor pace of play!
Course is not in great shape and pace of play was horrible. We have played this course a few times and always found it was a great value. Not this time $70 pp and a 4 hour 47 minute round. And they will not come out to move groups along for better pace of play. They will need to drop those rates before we play there again!
Fun course to play, good condition, a lot of fairly small greens, bring your best chipper! Excellent huge driving range, practice green and sand trap area as well. No GPS on carts, saw 100,150, and 200yd markers available Paid $50 thru golfnow, I don't think I'd pay much more to play here
B & R
Course is in good condition. It is not a high end course. The price indicates that. Greens were excellent. A very fun round.
In its day back in the 60’s it must have been quite a resort
The website photo is very deceiving, the conditions were not even close. Worse fairways I have played in AZ, nonexistent rough, poor greens but a great layout……..John Wayne and Pat Boone would have rolled over in their g.raves to see & play their course today.
No beverage cart even though it was a weekend
If you looking for new golfing experience in AZ …….THIS IS NOT IT
This course needs some work. The fees are too high for the course condition.
Greens vgood, fairways not so much
Greens were cut, smooth and receptive. Fairways and tees were mediocre. Many areas need to see a mower. Layout is vgood with a nice mix of sand, trees and water. Course needs some TLC to improve conditions. Will go back with the belief that fairways and tees will improve.
Not worth drive
If you are snowbird from Midwest and stay in Cads Grande this is your course.
