Nice par 3 course.
Had fun sharpening my irons on this very beautiful course. Great staff and loved being in the shadow of Camelback.
Glad you had fun and enjoyed the views in the heart of Paradise Valley.
want to improve your iron game
All but 4 holes you are only hitting irons and
you have 4 different T boxes to hit from.
this allows you to come back again and on
holes that you hit a long iron you can now use a
wedge of different lofts.
The most difficult is putting bring your A game and
practice prior to playing,
Friendly and accommodating staff.
Fun par 3 course that was good for tuning up short game. Finished in 3 hours flat despite being held up on the last 3 holes.
Improve your iron game
Yes, it’s just a par-3 course. Make no mistake, this is a challenging track for any player. If you shoot par here, you’re a real player. Some blind landing areas and tricky greens but great fun and good practice.
Great Par-3 Course for convenience and quick play
Awesome course for a quick game and for practicing your short game. Layout simple with a few water challenges. Pace of play was great and finished in less than 3 hours. Playing again on Sunday!
Tough Greens
While we enjoyed the short course very much we were very frustrated with the difficulty of the greens. We were told that they were set up on Tuesdays for a Skin Game for PGA pros! From now on I will avoid Tuesdays
best test of a short game in the east vally
being a par 3 course you are hitting from the
back tees on 3 holes 158 - 189 all of the rest
you will be using 7 irons on up to all types of wedges.
the course was pristine other than the greens as
some still have sand in places. If you miss the
green from the tee box the next shot will not be easy.
If you want to improve your iron play this is the course
to do it on as I have played it 7 times.
Overpriced with too many beginners
I had heard good things about this course. I was very disappointed. Extremely short even for an executive course. Greens are very tricked up to make up for the lack of distance. Add in the fact that every group seems to have a beginner and it was very slow. If you can get a hot deal and you want to practice your (very) short irons have at it. I won’t be going again.
Like your own private course!
Uniquely designed 18 holes but shrunk down so you can play without a driver. I did use mine on two of the holes. Nice greens with wicked pin placement and just a little water made this round exceptional! Great place to work on your short game but so much than an executive course. Love this place! Food was a little pricey but really nice restaurant, too.
Great short game course
First time in 2 years. I had a hard time finding the course because of the new developments. Clubhouse was beautiful and staff was friendly. They took away the par 4s and shortened the course. I actually had a hole in one on the 17th. Definitely will come again.
AWESOME LAYOUT FOR A SHORT COURSE
This short course is in immaculate condition and great fun to play. A great layout with a very friendly staff. Always enjoyable with interesting sloping on the greens. Cannot go wrong with deciding to play here.
Great Remodel Project
I played this course years ago and it was an ok round, but since their remodel and attention to detail, this executive course is an awesome hidden gem.
The course was in great shape, and the greens were a welcomed challenge for an executive course.
Book here, work on your iron, wedge and short game, and most of all......enjoy!!!
Awesome
Staff friendliness is exceptional
Lot of fun in an incredible environment
First time I pay attention to a par 3 and
Overwhelmed
Grass
The grass was long when not in fairway. The system they have to drop off clubs and pick them up is weird.
Very short tight course
Played this before the “remodel” and was anxious to play it since completion. Interesting course, some very short holes, however, greens were very challenging. We enjoyed playing the course, not sure how many times will play it again but it was a fun day. Feels a little clostrophic to me on some holes, it was a hot day and property’s are in very close proximity to the course.
Thank you for the 5 star rating and playing our fun and fast par three course in the Scottsdale / Paradise Valley area.
