Horrendous pace of play

I would encourage golfers to avoid this place. I booked a tee time for a single at 3:40pm on a Friday afternoon. I was told that I would be playing behind another single and a 4some. After waiting for some rain to subside and a delay on the first tee, I tee’d off around 3:35pm (I checked in around 3:20 and opted not to warm up and was told I could head to the first tee.). The pace of play was horrendous. I waited 8 mins on the 3rd tee box and decided to walk off and head home at 4:18pm – 43 mins for 2 holes of golf. I walked into the pro shop and inquired about a ‘slow play’ rain check and mentioned that I was leaving because it took me 43 minutes to play two holes and the response I got from staff was “oh gosh.” Not an apology, not an offer of a rain check. If such lackluster caliber play is going to be allowed at this course, there needs to be a modicum of pace of play enforcement. I would say the $90 I spent was wasted but I look at it like this: I spent $90 to realize I will never set foot on this course again and encourage others to do the same.

Didn’t play well

I struggled on this course today and scored 7 strokes higher than I did the week prior. Played the back nine first today. Got behind a father and 3 kids who looked like they didn’t want to be there. My patience was tested and probably affected my game.

Spring break

I played this course in my 5-year-old rode along with me. I was paired up with three other very friendly gentleman. The course was very friendly while still being very professional

Orange Tree Has Improved--A Lot!

For 4-5 years, as a local Phoenix resident, I wrote the course, suggesting it was a JOKE to call Orange Tree a "golf resort." The facility was dated and the course maintenance was poor, with consistently "HARD PACKED (clay)" traps, the tee markers were just pieces of tree limbs (painted on the ends to denote this or that tee box), etc.

I was pleasantly surprised at the play there yesterday (March 11). New clubhouse and course signage, actual sand in the traps, proper tee markers, and friendly staff. There are other changes in the works, such as the on-course restrooms--in serious need of updating, etc. But I'm encouraged with with I found... Bravo OT!
