The sign near the 5th hole Photo submitted by Hiroko9831738 on 12/02/2012
From Canada
Course was in great condition for summer time in the desert, greens were great, fairways great and green, tee boxes the same! Only issue pace of play was terrible, I mean round only took 4 hrs 30 min but waited on every hole, the guy I played with bounced after 11 cause if it, but couldn’t beat the course will play again!
Great public golf course
I have played this course multiple times and always enjoyed it! The staff is really friendly and helpful. The range and other facilities are great. The holes are challenging but fun. I enjoy playing the 9th and 18 holes, both of which, are par 5's and end right next to water The rangers are very friendly and helpful also.
Excellent course and staff
Excellant course in great condition! Staff is very friendly and able to help out with anything needed. One thing I disliked was the replay rate was almost the same price as the full round we paid for. Other than that no complaints and is GREAT condition.
Fun course
1st time playing this course and would definitely play again. The layout was nice. In really good condition.
Great Layout
Course was recently aerated but greens had filled in nicely and were puttable. Fairways were well maintained for a few summer dry spots as expected in AZ. Course is well watered so morning time will be wet, Overall group had great time on course.
Great time!
This was my first time playing at Camelback. They aerated ambiente approximately 6wks ago . Tee to green are true. Lush fairways, soft sand traps. Greens were pretty fast and in great condition for this time of year. Staff is genuinely friendly from outdoor services, ranger, pro shop, and beverage lady. You could easily make this your daily course. Other clubs should take note of their hospitality!
Great track!
I highly recommend going to play the Ambiente course at Camelback. The greens are in amazing shape right now! Some of the best in the valley in my opinion. The location is perfect as its right in the middle of Scottsdale. The clubhouse and amenities on site are great as well! Must play when in the area!
Great course
Truest rolling greens I’ve found all summer, along with Legacy. Great course every time I play. Will keep coming back.
Bare mud tee boxes
Fine layout, great pace of play (first thing in the morning) but the course conditions hint at a course that is not being maintained well. Greens were the best part of the course. However, tee boxes that were only bare dirt and washed out bunkers full of rocks and debris tell me that this place doesn't have much of a future.
Nicest course in Scottsdale
The wife and I recently moved to the Mesa are and have been playing a couple of courses a week.
Camelback was by far the best so far. Everything met our expectations and it was a great value for the price.
Thank you!
Great Course
Great golf course - beautiful condition, great staff. Course layout is a little ‘all over the place’ - but you get a lot of that in Scottsdale. Only complaint was water on the course, one of the fountains wasn’t working and game out hot water.
Great experience as always
Pace good, most parts of the course were great condition for early summer heat, greens recovered well from aeration and rolled well.
