RobL review
course was in good shape. greens were running true a bit slow but not bad).
the staa were extremely welcoming and attentive.
Beautiful course in pristine condition.
I hadn’t playing this course in a few years and I was pleasantly surprised how much easier the course played.
The biggest change is that the rough border the course has been pretty much cut down to nothing, so unless you spray one really far, it’s a lot easier to play than it used to be.
What hasn’t changed is that the course and greens are perfect and pristine. It was a great day.
Great, fun course.
The course layout is great. There is enough room to drive the ball aggressively if you're hitting it straight. Approach shots are fun if you're in the fairway, but that's golf anywhere, I guess.
The greens are challenging. They're usually fairly fast -- rolling 11-12 -- very undulating, and tough to read at times.
It's a very fun course.
Overpriced
I picked this course because of the ratings. I don't understand why they are as high as they are given the cost to play.
Would be 5 star if they would enforce pace of play
I really enjoy this complex. The practice facilities are really nice and staff is always friendly. When you allow a foursome who is not very good hold up the whole course it doesn't make sense. Part of learning the game is also learning the etiquette and expectations. I am happy the course has a Marshall but for the guy to just say I tried and that is how it is going to be today doesn't make sense. If they need to be moved up a half a hole or an entire hole that is what should happen. Print expectations at check in and let people know. Their carts have pace of play right on the screen. If you fall back one warning second time move them up. You hold up all the groups behind and several groups did not get to finish the round do to one groups slow play, bummer!
Great greens
Still cart path only but course is in great condition and greens are perfect. Fun day.
Better notification of course condition
Cart path only should be stated prior to reservation acceptance.. severe asthma made the day very very difficult 😕 not fair at all !!
Camelback Golf Club
First time playing this course, it had very good reviews. We enjoyed our round a little bit slow than normal, but for this time of year, all the teetimes were pretty much booked, but the pace of play was not horrible. We really enjoy the layout of the course it kind of goes through a little neighborhood so it’s very nice to see some of the housing here. Have views of the mountain area and of course, views of Camelback Mountains as well. Great time.
We gave ourselves 4:30 minutes to squeeze our round in, but with 10 minute tee times, pace of play became a huge issue. I understand that pace can be hard for a course to control, but 10 minute intervals are not something I can support for a $160 course if you're not going to actively manage pace of play.
