Fantastic Views

The course was a little bit wet from the monsoon the night before so definitely nothing they could do about that. Greens were super challenging for a short course. Totally worth the money for the views!

Short Course

I guess my review would be more for golf now as a website. When booking I saw no indication that this was a short course, but while arriving the sign says “the short course at mountain shadows” Probably should in someway make that very noticeable because I instantly was kind of bummed because it wasn’t what I expected. The course was beautiful, you definitely are paying for a Mountain View, pace of play was good, although there seemed to be an audience on every hole of either construction home builders eating sandwiches or maintenance dudes sitting on their equipment. Bar was closed, but they had coolers already stocked on carts with ice water, beer cart was awesome and very prompt. Beer was expensive but came quick, so no complaints. Tee boxes need some love.

The staff was very active and friendly. The course itself was a very fun time to play and a great place to work on your smaller irons.

Excellent fun short course

Super friendly and helpful staff. Played a "hot deal" in the afternoon on a very hot day. Fortunately, the course was wide open. Played for the first time after the redesign. Loved it. For the middle of a very hot summer, the entire course was in excellent shape. Plenty of bottled water was provided. A very nice touch. The course provides beautiful views of Mummy & Camelback Mountains. It is a "short course." You probably won't need anything longer than a 5 or 6 iron. The greens will provide the challenge. It's a great course for all golfers. The putting contest after the 17th hole provides some unique extra fun.

They messed this course up

I used to love playing this course, they changed it recently and now the course sucks. It has ruined it for me and I will never play there again. It’s a shame

Solid Track

This course is a little over-priced since they did the renovation. Still the course is very fun for golfers of any skill level. Best thing about this place is the 4 person golf carts!

Pin placement

This course is awesome! Only thing was a couple of the pin placements. Other than that it was a lot of fun.
