Great course, and they know it

This is a stunnng course - out and back with few houses nearby. It was in great condition - the greens were fast and true. The best part was that I finished uin under four hours! That's unheard of for a resort course in peak season.

A little too expensive

Nice course in a ritzy enclave of AZ. Played the Padre course which was nice. Typical park land course with a few waste bunkers. Not too hard a track at 124 slope from the white tees. Practice facilities were top notch. Fairways were green and lush and greens were in great shape but for $430 CDN it was overpriced. As a 5 handicap it was a nice treat but wouldn’t be in a hurry to play it again.

Played yesterday, course was in very nice shape. I purchased a tee time through golf now, which was still slightly more than 200 for my wife and I. Felt the course was a bit pricey, as compared to another course in Scottsdale that was less expensive and I felt was better than Camelback. It was a good experience playing there but I feel overpriced.

Nice course, too pricey.

I've played a little of nice courses. Problem here to keep is that it wasn't a $200+ experience. Played nicer courses for half the price. That's what you get in Phoenix during the winter.
