Pointe Hilton Tapatio Cliffs Resort

Overall an interesting course. Up and down the mountain. Some blind shots. Fairways rough in some areas. (It is mid summer in Phoenix, so that might be why). It’s a course you really need to play a few times to know where to hit. The staff was outstanding, but I don’t think we’ll play it again anytime soon.

Said I’d recommend to a friend but with caveats.

We live a mile from here and have enjoyed playing here many, many times over the past 20+ years. Their summer 12 pack was always a must for us. The course is in a gorgeous setting and although it's a shorter course, it is still pretty challenging.

After COVID, this course started to get very expensive, even the summer pack had double in price from when we first started buying it. The rack rate for a tee time in July (July!) is over $100/player. So we haven't played here in probably a year or so.

I found a deal over July 4th weekend and was very excited to play here again. I was surprised at how poor the conditions were. I know it's summer and it's hot, again I've played here over summers for years and have never seen it this bad. Lots of bare spots and weeds.

I'm sure the conditions will be better when it's more normal temperatures, but I can't see myself coming back as the prices will probably be $300/player.

This was an excellent course with a good layout. The staff was friendly, and the group I was paired with was great. The green was pretty tricky but in excellent condition. The only negative was that the fairways had a lot of dead grass due to the time of the year and the heat.

Resort course that is in very decent shape for summer. Greens legit felt like pillows when you walked on them, very soft so you have to be aggressive with your approaches. Fairways were decent for this time of year. I got it for a steal of $29.99 and I’d pay almost double. No one in head of me till 17. Got done in 2.5. Anything over $70 for this course is a little much this time of year, but a hidden gem if you can get a deal. Reviews are correct, you have to go up to resort/pro shop to check in, not at the bottom.

The conditions werent the best, but it is a fun course to play, I will play it again

Granted I played in summer, the $76 green fee was about $25 too much. The greens were in good shape, but the fairways were rough. It’s summertime golf in AZ, so what can one expect other than good prices. I paid the price on this one and won’t be back anytime soon.

Food was good at the turn and all of the staff was very friendly. Be aware that you have to park at the resort at the top of the hill, not where the great big Lookout mountain golf sign is at the bottom of the hill. I’d arrive at least 30 min before tee time to give yourself plenty of time to get to hole 1.

Greens rolled true. Really a beautiful course but over priced because of the hotel

The fairways are burnt out tee boxes are horrible shape also. The greens were patchy. They tried using the weather as an excuse but the Kierland course was great with the same “weather “. They charged me $109 for the round.

Great layout, a lot of elevation changes. Some tee boxes a bit ragged, but I’m using a tee. The greens are in fantastic condition, for anytime of year.

Played in 3 hours. The staff inside and outside are really nice.

Paid almost $120 for this round thinking it should be a fantastic course to play. Well let me tell you save your money and play a cheaper better maintained course.

LM is one of my favorite courses in town because of the course conditions, elevation change and variety of challenges. The price is reasonable as well. Enjoy!

Played the course on a humid, HOT day. Not a lot of players out, but there was one group of “newbies” that slowed down the pace . Good to see new people, but know when to leave balls and move on.

Purse was in fair shape, tee boxes a little rough, greens were spongie on some and had some bad places on others. At least there was a lot of water coolers that were cold and the cart girl was available. Kind of expensive for the conditions and time of year.
