Great warmup

Took our visitors here for their first round of golf after a rough Winter up North. Great pace of play as we finished 18 holes despite a late afternoon start. Interesting water features on holes 8 , 12 and 13 and great close up views of Camelback mountain. Very friendly and accommodating staff.

Great Course for the Value

Course is in excellent condition. Awesome executive 18 hole course. Good place to work on iron game. Fairways are very lush. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone.

This course is very challenging for a par 3 course

The scenery at this course is unbelievable and was worth the extra miles to go there. The course was challenging on some holes and easy on others which made it very interesting. All the workers there were very helpful and polite. Really made us feel very comfortable and welcome. We all plan on going back there again.

Sunday Morning Round

It was the perfect place for my 10 year old son to play with me. It was long enough for him and we had a lot of fun.

Very enjoyable

Staff was great and the course was a lot of fun. Condition of the course was good. Overall- we look forward to our next time. While this is not a real significant comment, I would suggest over the next couple of years an effort be made to flatten the tees. So many of them are rounded. Also, it would have been nice to have range reflectors on the flagpoles so as to render the GPS range finder useful.

Fun Short Course

This course is a great value if you want to work on your short game, are a beginner, or no longer are able to play a regulation-length course. Greens and fairways were in good condition. Bunkers were reasonably placed and always had at least one rake. The par-3s were of a variety of length, which added challenge. Pace of play was much slower than the 3 hrs we had wished for, and the views of Camelback Mtn as a backdrop made the pace more tolerable. Sorry to hear the driving range practice facility is going to be plowed under! Pro shop staff were all friendly and welcoming.

Great scenery and great course to practice your short game.

Wasn't easy to find. Major redevelopment was underway, but was only a tad disruptive on the first hole.

All on all it is a fun course with great mountain scenery.

Great Course

I brought my teenage son to this course. This was only his third time golfing and we had a great time. This a great course for a beginner and has a few challenges to get them thinking. Would highly recommend this course to all people.
