Great job to the crew

Had an overall great time. Started on the palm course, but were slowed down by the std group of “we can hit it a mile, but just never anywhere near the fairway” guys. 2 1/2 hrs for 9. At the turn the starter came up and asked if we wanted to switch to the pine course. He is our hero! Finished 9 on pine in less than 1 1/2 hrs, and caught a fabulous sunset.

Greens were fast. Fairways in great shape.

Great course for the price

Staff were very friendly, greens and fairways were in great condition. Rough was a little beat up. Pace of play was awesome. Will definitely be coming back soon.

Fair to average course. Greens were not true and burnt. Value for money was low.

Very pure greens

We had never played McCormick previously but had heard good things about it. The cart staff were friendly and professional, providing great service upon arrival to the course and upon completion of our round. Fairways were in great shape and the dormant rough, which we were in a lot, provided consistent lies. The greens were the best aspect though. They were quick, smooth, and putts held their line. Absolute pleasure to putt on. We thought the price point was a little higher than it should've been, but being in Scottsdale its what you'd expect. Overall great day and would be open to playing here again.

Grounds need some work

The course was nice. I like that the range balls are included in the round. The grass was not over seeded. Because of this the course didn't look that good. The overall play was still good and the greens were very fast.

Could be better

Just an average course in my opinion. Definitely not worth $150. The overseeded areas are thin at best. Whoever mowed the greens on the Pine course did not do a good job. Driving the mower straight and cutting the entire surface are the basics. I would not send a friend to McCormick Ranch in its current condition. Trilogy felt like Augusta compared to Pine course and it was $30 less.

Good walk spoiled

I booked this course because I remembered walking it in years past. That's no longer allowed. I even offered to pay more just to walk but they shot me down. That's silly and I won't be going back...this would/should be a very walkable course!

Average course

The golf attendant that sent us off the first tee made it sound like it was the best course in Arizona. We were really looking forward to golfing it. Obviously the guy has never golfed another golf course in the area. It was okay. Greens were slow. Fairways were maintained well, pro shop was nice with a good selection of merchandise and friendly staff. I will probably never golf it again. Definitely better courses in the area for the money.

Very Hard Course

Played this course and was a lot harder than McDowell mountain ranch. Lots of sloped greens and bunkers in front. Was very fun and loved the layout + open fairways, but I shot higher than normal due to layout for sure. Lots of putts where if you miss you are going to roll for awhile.

Perfect Day After Rain

Course was in great shape. The problem was that it had just rained and it was cart path only until the 17th hole. Give me a break. I can understand the first four or five holes but for the price we are paying plus the course had dried up by then… be fair to your players. Aside from that I do enjoy the course even though if you slice it just a little bit you will be in the next fairway over. I like that there are lots of holes with water nearby, keeps it interesting.
