Resorts at McCormick Ranch Scottsdale

Greens were mostly in bad shape. Standing water in a lot of the traps and other places. Lots of areas under repair. Course for sure needs work but if you want to go out and play a fast round with little notice this course would be a good choice.

This course was in very bad conditions. The worst hard packed bunkers with no sand, dead spots on most greens, and dried out dead fairways hitting off dirt. Nice staff, nice layout. Its a shame this course has gotten worse over the years.

I’m sorry but course are charging 4 x what they used to but putting none of the profits back into the course. First they give you a bucket with about 20 balls the fairways where there is grass is painted green. They seem to have a lot of locals that love it but not me.

I played this corset twilight twice and I got 16 holes in one time and 13 or 14 holes in another time.

The course is decently maintained, but because it’s Bermuda grass there are rough spots/hard spots in the fairways and dirt patches. Most difficult thing about this course is, if you haven’t played the beginning of the holes are very poorly marked and you can find yourself driving the wrong way easily.

Golf staff wasn’t the friendliest, seemed a little pretentious for a course like this to be honest.

Overall, it’s a challenging course if you play from the blues, not sure about the whites. They don’t have black teeth.

Greens are unrelated and can be challenging.

Booked the pine course and they made us play both back nines instead. The palm back nice was pretty much unplayable. Greens were rotted away bunkers we filled with water. For the price of the round it was pretty sad. Then after the round I went into ask if they would do anything about it and why the moved us to both backs when they knew the course was in such rough shape. They responded “ the members refused to play so we had to move you guys to the back”. Take that as you wish.

The course layout and greens were good. The fairways & cart paths were terrible. The bunkers had no sand and were full of water and we played at 3pm so they didn’t just water.

Range and club house is in great shape, it was our first and last time playing the course. When I booked the tee time it was for the pine course then to realize that when we showed up we are being told to play both back nines because the members refuse to play them since they are in such rough shape. No discount or refund was given. Bunkers were all filled with water 80% of the fairways were died up. I’ve never played on rougher dried out greens. Way over priced for the experience. You can find a lot cheaper courses that are in better shape.

Simply not worth the money. Course is in really rough shape. Sad to see, used to be one of my favorite layouts in the valley but has just been mismanaged for too long. Love the practice area though

Course was in decent conditions minus one or two holes were a little iffy.

my only main complaint that everyone I was paired with strongly agreed with, was the layout of the course and the holes were very confusing. Some signs would point one way in the holes would be a different way and some holes felt like they were overlapped. Other than us getting rushed on the last few holes by the Marshall because we were rhe last ones playing, It was a very pleasant experience and great course of condition FOR THE PRICE.

I want to preface this with I normally will just browse reviews, and never thought I’d feel the need to write one.

I grew up playing here. I’ve played in Phx open qualifier on pine, had the ranch pass, all that. It’s a special place to me

I booked a twilight around 430 on a Tuesday. Loaded my cart, couldn’t find water for the bottle I brought, so I bought one from the stand for 5$. The only other water was a couple of decades old water fountains on the course near the decaying bathrooms.

The course was beyond looking past conditions. The pin location on “2 Palm” (actually 11 Palm) was cut into a section of the green that was mud. There was no grass near the hole location, and the sprinkler system turned it into mud. The bunkers were completely unplayable, filled with water and overgrown. Phoenix public parks in August look more lush than this.

Truly - all of this I can look past and move on, hope it’s a reno, etc. But on my 8th hole, on pace for a 2.5 hour 18, the ranger alerted me I needed the cart in by 7. No problem,

On my 14th hole, I was 45 minutes clear of 7pm. However from that hole on, I was followed, meticulously, by the ranger. After a few holes playing as a single I almost felt the need to ask him what his problem was. Watching every shot I hit. Unbelievably bizarre.

The nail in the coffin was on 18, another course employee alternate to the ranger, who was still following me, was now driving a resort style large cart drove past me, turned around, and park directly behind my cart while I finished my round before 7pm, after I waited for the group in front of me each shot on 18.

I was so shocked I paid money for this experience, I could even get myself to acknowledge this man sitting 2 feet from my cart staring me down.

If nothing else, establishments need to understand that this sort of stuff is simply stealing from people. Don’t pay to be at this place unless there’s some accountability.

Greens were in terrible condition and where greens were damaged they had the pin there so you really couldn’t putt . The bunkers had grass growing inside and were not maintained. Have played here a few times and always loved these courses so was very disappointed at the conditions of the courses

Don't want to spend too much time on this bashing the course, but with the exception of the greens it was almost unplayable. In my opinion this course should not even be open. Fairways were not even Fairways it was more dirt than there was grass. I was here on vacation and hoping for better.

First course I played since moving to Arizona and I was happily surprised with this course!

A nice golf course that is in need of a little more maintenance. We had a 6-some ahead of us, which slowed things down a bit, at some point, they broke into a 4some and a 2some; not sure if that was their idea or the Marshalls but either way it worked better after that.

I would play here again, but I would hope that the maintenance would improve somewhat

The ‘new’ pine is front 9 of ‘old’ pine and palm. The front 9 were in rough conditions - on the 3 rd hole I had better lie in the rough then my friend had in the fairway. Back 9 was in good shape.
