Orange Tree Resort

Course was cart path only so there was a lot of walking involved. Course was wet but Scottsdale had gotten over an inch of rain the night before so that was expected. Pace of play was good considering it was cart path. I enjoyed the round on nice green grass even if it did have lots of puddles.

Just finished and the course is in terrible condition but for the fairways. The greens and tee boxes are in horrible shape. Can you get a flat tee box that doesn’t have divots everywhere and created by a backhoe, No! I mentioned the fairways are good, but the amount a bird s**t you have to avoid is ridiculous. I won’t even discuss how bad the driving range is. The ownership/ management should be ashamed charging over $100 per round. Anything over $40, you’re getting ripped off. Do better OT! Try Starfire just down the road, I haven’t played there in a while, but it has to be better than OT.

Course conditions are great

Greens moderate speed

Fairways in good shape

Had a great time playing this course. Pretty wide open fairways with lots of green grass to play off of unusual in Arizona. Water doesn’t play too much of a factor. The forward tees are in a great location to make you feel like you are not hitting a hundred times before reaching the greens. Can’t wait to book another round.

Course was in decent but not great condition, with most tee boxes pretty rough, and greens with much goose poop. Pace of play was slow, but I’m thinking this may have been more of an exception to the norm.

All in all, it was a good day at Orange Tree. Will hopefully return and play again.

Old Parkland style course. Very flat. Greens had some interesting contours. Lots of goose poop to contend with.

Orange Tree Golf Course could be so much better with some time and effort to maintain and update. Tee boxes are a mess - uneven and patchy. Fairways are mostly kept. Greens are not well managed...lots of healing needed as they are patchy at best. All of the beautiful homes around the course helps with the fact it's an easy track...slope rating is not difficult so good for a resort to make playable. Quality Details is the key.

Had a family golf day and have to say the track was just above average but really enjoyed the facility and the staff was super friendly and pace of play was excellent.

The course was ok, but I saved it for the last course in my trip and it was not worth the price. The grass was dormant on a significant portion of the course. The bunkers were not maintained. It is an ok course and worth a play but not above $90.
