Great couples course

I spent a bunch of time reading all the reviews and they were spot on.

A cold January made it a bit more challenging. The back nine on the pine course was the best part, layout was challenging and the greens were great. Tough putting!Make sure to spend some time practicing putting from above the hole as three putts are more common on the back nine. Stay below the hole on your approach!!!

We played with another couple and it was a good course for the ladies too.

Over Rated Underwhelming

I was very disappointed because I’d heard great things about the golf course. The front nine was decent, a bit rough around the edges but playing surfaces, tees, fairways and greens were fine. Nice arrangement of holes. The back nine was awful, terribly maintained and unplayable in many locations. Too much water in some spots, none in others, ragged fairways and no regard to proper bunker structure and maintenance. Just terrible from # 10 thru # 18. Even at the comparatively lower price to other facilities, I will not go back and would not recommend it to anyone else.

Par for Average

We played the Pine course, which was OK. For the money, I would recommend the Palm course. Pine is OK if you can get a deal below $100 during winter.

The Pine course was average challenge and scenery. The rough was completely dry/yellow, which seems to be standard for the courses I played this week. The greens were in good shape and fast.

The carts lack basic technology, and that was disappointing for the fees you pay.

Always a good round @ McCormick Ranch

I play 1-2 times a week in the PHX area. As prices in season go absolutely nuts this is one course in the middle/upper middle price range that does not disappoint this time of year. There are many courses around town at this price point which are in terrible condition. Always a good nice experience here (regardless of how well I play).
