Reviews
Great course
I highly recommend this course as it is in great shape and fun to play
Great Course!
Best maintained , great tricky greens
Great staff, well managed , great pro, doesn’t get better value coupled with two best courses that are under rated in the valley
Love the course
Love this course for the visit
Fun, pretty simple, well kept.
Most employees are awesome there, but when I come in the shop the first minute and get reprimanded….
So I was proudly wearing new golf clothes shoes and a $150 t shirt on my 5 day golf trip.
I was almost instantly greeted wiith “we only allow collared shirts here”… not happy
I changed shirts into a low quality polo and as I was walking out of the bathroom, a young woman was walking to her cart in tiny shorts and BARELY a tank top on. While she was lovely it made me feel slighted in that I couldn’t wear a beautiful t shirt and expensive golf PANTS (not shorts or a tank top Lol) with new golf shoes and look better than most by the way….
Just a thought.🤨
Thanks for reading.

Great Layout, Watch for Slow Play
I really like the layout of Ambiente, and the conditions of the course on April 5, 2025 were excellent. I'm just not a fan of 5+ hours for a round of golf. Especially frustrating because our cart's GPS kept calling us out for being behind on our time even though we had to wait for 4-7 minutes before every shot. And the group in front of us although not playing "ready golf" also had to wait on quite a few holes. Clearly the course marshals are ineffective if they check at all.
Challenging layout!
Course was fairly well groomed. Great layout. Ok tees, greens and fairways. Approaches were weak. And, for big sand traps please invest in more rakes!
I like the course but the sand traps were terrible. Many had virtually no sand, like hitting off concrete. Unacceptable for a course that charges 150 for the late afternoon partial rounds and mid-200s for morning time.
Wonderful
I have played several times in the past, course was in the best condition ever. Wonderful experience.
Perfect Day
Course is in fantastic shape, greens rolled true, fairways were perfect. Great day to shoot your low round of the year.
Excellent golf and service
Wonderful course and the service was excellent. Play this course!
Ambiente
The course was in terrific shape, always love the layout, spectacular views,. All in all the terrific time.
