Wow! Hidden Gem

I’ve lived in the area for 50 years. Have golfed at countless courses, but never here.

We were absolutely blown away by this fabulous hidden gem.

Par 3 golf isn't for everyone. Thanks for giving us a try.

We have 18 par 3's ranging from 70 yards up to 200 yards.

We strive for friendly and helpful service with great course conditions and the best view in town.

Gorgeous fun course

Gorgeous fun course at the base of camelback with breath taking views. Best Time to play is late afternoon the sun setting is gorgeous. Even though it’s a short course it’s challenging which makes it more fun. It is a bit pricey because it’s at a resort.

If you have a chance to play with less time do this course.

A very tricky course

The course wasn’t what we imagined for a par 3 course. It’s a very nice course, with great views, but very challenging.

I was transported to The Clam Bake

Awesome retro vibe. Was looking for Bob and Bing at every turn. Course was in immaculate shape. The yardages are so fun, and conducive to all kinds of bet play. Outdoor services were exceptional. Pro Shop staff could be a little “warmer”. Felt like a bother, asking questions about the course and the merch. Food was of good quality and price. Drinks are stiff. Overall will be back. Had the best time!

Cute Executive Course

Played there 15yrs ago, vastly improved. Confusing transition between 2 holes. Can’t remember the Numbers. We had enjoyable fun time.
