Super fun course

From tee to green and from check-in to check-out, staff was very friendly. Tee boxes were in excellent shape, fairways were great and greens were above average. Just need to fill the sand in the traps…yep…I found a few.

Overall…awesome course.

Interesting Layout

My GPS took me directly to the course but I had to go over to the resort where the pro shop is to sign in. No biggie the staff was extremely friendly and helped to start the day right. This was a Tuesday so the course was somewhat empty. I got paired with another single there on a conference who had played the course on Sunday. The first six holes are your standard valley style interesting but not too impressive. The seventh hole is where it got interesting. An elevated par 5 with a look from the tee that could make a frogs butt pucker! The rest of the way in was similar to this. Target golf was the key and a little help from my partner helped on where not to hit it. Overall the conditions were great and the quick greens held and putted very well. Had a great round and enjoyed the unique layout. I will play this again the next time I’m in The Valley. Put it on your short list it’s worth it!

Very good course that could be great

I was very pleased with this round that I booked through Troon Advantage through my home club. The only 2 negatives is the starter let a 5-some go out in front of my 3-some and the bunkers are worse than the last 2 municipal courses I have played (1 back in Dallas and the Encanto 9 here in downtown Phoenix). I am normally a good bunker player and these were pitiful in that they were compacted dirt more than they were sand bunkers.

Now that I have the negatives out of the way, let's talk about the positives. The greens were in excellent condition, and the tee boxes, fairways, and approach areas were all immaculate. Overall, given what I saw in reviews for other courses in the greater Phoenix area and their costs, this is a good value if you can access it via the Troon network at a discount over the published rates.

This is not a walking course, which is why the 5-some in front of us was so slow. Had they all been on carts, it would have moved faster, but as it was, we still finished in a little over 4 hours.

We were warned by the starter to watch out for snakes, but we didn't see any. We did see hundreds of rabbits and even a couple of coyotes as it approached dusk.
