Carts need work

This is the second time playing this course in two weeks. The greens are fast like incredibly fast, fairways great shape, tee boxes could use some attention. Staff is friendly. My only gripe is for two weeks in a row the caddies have given me defective carts that don't brake. I try and lock the the brake but on steep glides it won't engage for the price to play here I expect a functional cart as it throws off my play having to deal with a faulty cart. Seriously will consider play elsewhere in future most likely Triology.

Never been to Scottsdale - Booking based on reviews

There were 3 of us in our group, plus a random 4th ( who was great ). Two of us are low handicap, the third is a beginner. The course has an incredible layout up and down the hill side. The views on some of the holes were incredible. It is a bit confusing finding where to start / practice area /etc. but the staff was very helpful and willing to answer any out of towner questions.

If you are looking to play a NICE course with a FUN layout at a REASONABLE price this is it. Especially if you are booking a trip and have never traveled to the area.

Although we haven't played the top dollar courses in the area, our group is hard pressed to believe this course doesn't give a far superior bang for the buck.

Definitely recommend.

Fun course

Lookout Mountain lives up to its name, the elevation changes are beautiful. The course was in really good shape, greens very fast! Staff were all very friendly. Would be nice to have GPS on the carts. First time playing, went there based on other review. Would definitely recommend.

Nice layout, great back nine

Fun course with lots of elevation change on the back nine. Staff was friendly. Other than the playing surfaces, the grounds and paths lacked maintenance and were pretty beaten up. If it’s your first time, beware... it’s very confusing trying to find the clubhouse and golf shop. Signage is very poor, so give yourself an extra 20 minutes to find the place. GPS for Pointe Hilton Resort, and not for Lookout Mountain Golf Club will save you some trouble.

Fun round

Lookout Mountain is a fun course and a good challenge. The layout, other than a stupid hole 9, is interesting. There are good carries, well placed hazards and good - fast greens.

Not amazing but a good challenging course.

Amazing Course, VERY Tough Greens Though.......

You will love this course, but it is tough to putt here. The greens are all heavily sloped and the ball will roll all the way down. Good luck out there!

Fastest Greens I've played in years.

Great views. Course had incredible elevated tee shots. Difficult greens. Make sure you are below the hole as much as you can.

Excellent Course!

Tee to green this course is only slightly challenging, offering huge fairways (on most holes) and short second shots. That said, get on or around the greens and the course becomes a lovely headache. We were fortunate to play with a gentleman who plays the course a handful of times a week and he gave us reads that I thought were ridiculous. Well, they weren’t. Awesomely fast greens with huge yet subtle steep slopes. You have to take a GOOD look at the entire green if you wish to make putts. Second shots are almost always better left 30+ feet short of the pin rather than 15+ feet past the pin. NEVER miss long and over the green as you will be left with a chip that is nearly impossible to get within 3-5’.
