Not what I expected

It’s summer in az and we can expect some rough conditions. There is a lot of work going in at the course, so it should be better in the fall. My complaint is that the tee time was sold as the palm course but it was back 9 of palm and back 9 of pine. I should have been alerted before I booked. There is a lot of water in the sand traps. It’s sort of ok for the price but I probably wouldn’t have booked if i knew the front 9 was closed.

The back nine was under water, extremely wet - could not believe it was even open for play. Front nine was in great shape. Would play again one the back nine is cleaned up and dried out.

Mediocre

Course was in rough shape. Greens were slow and bumpy, bunkers were hard packed and had standing water in them, big mud patches in the middle of the fairways, and were told by the starter right before our round that we were playing the front 9 of the palm course, and the back 9 of the pine course. None of this was mentioned upon booking or by the pro shop. Staff seemed annoyed that we were there. We paid $200 for two of us. With it being 115 degrees and the rough shape of the course, definitely not worth $100 a pop. I’m sure the course is great during prime conditions, but absolutely not worth playing over summer.

Course Maintenance

It would have been good to know we were playing on a modified setup. We played the back of Pine and front of Palm. Bunkers and greens were trash.

Under Construction

Unaware of construction all over the course. The back 9 of the Palm course is closed. The back 9 of Pine is not in good shape. Played before this time of year and was in much better condition.

Massive renovation project on the front 9s of each of the two courses. Forced to play the back 9 of both so it was cool to see two different courses. However, there was no warning and it was a surprise to learn this while checking in for a pre- paid round.
