Casa Granda
Everyone at this course has been great every time I play there. I have never had a problem with anything at this course, and I have recommended it to many of my friends. A great deal for the cost!
My take-aways
Enjoyed this course, the greens were green, and thats always nice, plenty of critters too. We got to see a hawk chilling on the grass like 10 yards from us! We had to search for the golf shop, wandering in the hotel lol (not for long tho). Their computers failed… but then they waived us by and we golfed for free! Pretty cool. Over all good experience. I will definitely go again.
Pace of Play
Nice pace to play golf 4 hour round. Course was in good condition and was a pleasure to play. Greens putted well and true.
Most greens and tees were ood. Some of the fairways need some work.
Greens and tees are good, but some of the fairways needed help. No grass on areas of several of the fairways
Quick Round
PlYed early and got 18 holes in 3 1/2 hours. A couple of fairways were brown but playable. Greens a little slow but pitted good. Overall very good conditions.
Like the layout, Adam, Keith& Wayne are the best. I am always treated well.. Will is always accommodating.
Would like to see a ranger on course. Could use signs for cart path only on par 3’s..
Smooth as ***
Tee Box 9,
Fairways 10,
Greens +10
Have not played on such a well groomed course, O it 90 degrees in the desert
Course needs some work
Love the layout & employees but there are spots on the course where it’s very wet & then others that are as dry as a bone, watering is very inconsistent - needs some work.
