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.

Nice enough 36 hole layout in the flatlands, but nothing to write home about. We played on a rainy day so the pace was great but they had no amenities - no towels, no covers for your clubs, no GPS, very few marked sprinkler heads. Layouts were challenging enough, there was a fair bit of length, and the greens were very nice but overall this was an $80 course, so even considering the hundred dollar inflation you pay for every course in the area, value felt short.

Not a good value for the money

We played the south course and although it's a decent course, just not a good value for the money.

The Grill

Disappointed in the clubhouse and the restaurant. Not sure if it is temporary but that is what it seems. Also, when I finished at around 5:00 the grill was closed up and couldn't even stop on for a beverage
