Over 5 hour round

The restaurant and staff. Top notch. That was the highlight of the day. Breakfast and. Lunch.

Average course with average conditions. Worst paved cart paths I have ever seen

Longest round I have played in 5 trips to Phoenix. Played the course because it was close to hotel.

There are better tracks and better experiences.

What happened to this place?

The new greens were understandably firm and fast, but I was surprised by how poor the rest of the course has become. Fairways were beat up and probably deserved “ground under repair” flags throughout. Puddles of water in bunkers and other areas in the late afternoon don’t make sense to me given the lack of rain water. The course is a patchwork of sand, mud, hard pan, etc. on greens and fairways. This course used to be a joy to play and had decent eye appeal, but it’s now a bad muni-looking course. Despite the relative lower rate compared to other “championship” courses, I won’t be coming back unless changes are made. Regarding beverage service, all the “cart girls” were unfriendly and staring at their phones. In the first “drive by” instance, the cart girl drove right by us and didn’t even acknowledge us…I swear they are trying to make as little money as possible! If you enjoy great conditions, friendly people, and an acceptable pace of play - all of which you should expect this time of year in Scottsdale - play elsewhere.

Not accommodating.

Pace of play was terrible. Got behind a group of 6 and Marshall had to break it up through hole 7. At the turn ran into a foursome with two other watching. Was not enjoyable. Better courses for the price.

Nice course, but...

way too expensive and the conditions go the fairways was marginal at best.

Golf in the Phoenix-area is way over-priced.

Bad condition

It looked like they spray painted the fairways. Greens were very dry and there was almost no fringe. Had to play all bump and runs because every time I tried to use my sand wedge from inside 40 yards, the club bounced and skulked the ball.
