About Talking Stick Resort & Casino

Just east of Phoenix-Scottsdale, Talking Stick Resort is owned and operated by the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community. It is among Arizona's largest golf and casino resorts with nearly 500 guest rooms in a 15-story hotel tower, six restaurants, entertainment and pools. Located off the Highway 101 loop, it is conveniently located near Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport and many of the area's best golf courses. In addition to nightlife and live casino action at the resort, a Topgolf was recently added to the property as well. The main outdoor pool is large and has live music and DJs during a summer series and cabanas for rent, while there are two smaller pools. Additional amenities include a spa, fitness center and a complimentary shuttle that can transport guests to area attractions. The golf club is located next door and feature 36 holes designed by Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw, the Piipash and O'odham. Both golf courses are void of residential development and feature forgiving fairways and greens on native terrain.

Don't pay retail

Had a great day, loved the course and will definitely be going back. Booking through Golf Now was a mistake, paid $262 and found out after the fact that there are special deals if you do some research and call the pro shop. I'm sure that many courses in the Scottsdale area and other areas as well provide deals if you ask. Small additional detail, clubhouse is under renovation, was not a big deal unless you are looking to eat and spend time before or after golf.

Fun/hard course views are lacking

It's a fun course if you hit the ball straight. Not strait you are in the unplayable desert. Nice conditions and greens.

At $70 this is an ok course

1st time here. Golf carts are nice. Most tee boxes are nice. Most fairways are nice. Greens are firm - expected given the desert. Would only play here again if the price is right - $100 US is maximum price - not worth anything more. It is peaceful also - cannot hear any freeway noise. Easy to get to.

Best fairways I have played in reasonable cost course

If you get the hot deal this is a can’t miss round! The fairways are incredible shape and lots of width for the errant shot that can come out. Greens are tough to hold but in great shape and bunkers are sweet. Pace of play was good done in 4:05.

Just Amazing

I think this is one of the Gem courses in the valley. It has big fairways, greens are always in great shape. This course always is a pleasure to play, particularly when you can find a deal under $70

Great shape

Course turf almost seems artificial it is so green. Wide fairways and minimal hazards. Suppose the hole with the gulch running through it is the signature hole. Can get a good deal on a hot deal but not worth the rate sheet price.

Great course for a hot deal

The course conditions were excellent. Extremely wide fairways with a lot of strategically placed bunkers that force decisions off the tee. Great staff and practice facilities. Clubhouse is currently under construction. I got a Hot Deal so the value for this round was great.
