10/10 would play it again

Loved the course and everything it has to offer. Beautiful course with plenty of hazards and difficulty that makes it so much more fun to play. I played the palms course and will be going back to play the pines.

A downward spiral

I have lived in Phoenix 20 years and have played this course more than 25 times. The course conditions have simply eroded into that of 2 star munis. At the same price point there are much better selections.

Over paid for a 5 hr Rnd

The staff was friendly and the greens were in good shape. The course is in need of some updating. Must have had a bachelor party the day I played as the round took nearly 5 hrs to play.. over priced at $100

Excellent course, well worth your consideration

This was the second time I have played this course and I am glad I went back.

On my first visit (5 months ago) I gave feedback that the practice range needed improvement - the new mats were installed a few weeks ago and they are excellent!

Fairways are in great condition plus the greens are fast but smooth although very hard.

My one (minor) criticism would be that the bunkers have just hard coarse sand - not a problem for those lucky enough to stay out of the bunkers but I had the opportunity to experience far too many of them.

I will return to this course again as it is fair value for money and a provides a great test of skill.

Not a hot deal

This was not a hot deal for $85. The season is over and see,Ed like everyone was tired including the course. No water in ball cleaning machines, melted water in coolers, fairways and tee boxes thin. Greens pretty good. Won’t play here again.

Good Value

Overall the course is in decent shape. Only major complaint was the 15th green being very beat up. This is already the toughest hole on the course, and having a beat up green made it even tougher. Staff was friendly and beverage cart came around plenty of times

Good Muni Course

The recent increase in green fees is not justified at many courses and this is one of them. Unfortunately, you pay a premium for courses in the Scottsdale area and in my opinion this course was no better than a good Muni course.

The staff was friendly with what appeared to be clean facilities. But over priced.

The course played well

For the money this is a reasonable course. Played very quickly as part of a twosome. Neither snack bar or inside bar was staffed at 1:15 pm to buy a soda at the turn. Waited five minutes then went on. Greens are readable and consistent. Fairway conditions varied.

Layout not very interesting...straight away flat. Greens in good shape and good speed. Had not played course in 7-8 years. Thought $110 for play was about $40 overpriced given alternative courses.
