The Embassy Suites by Hilton Phoenix Scottsdale

Enough empty bottles and cans throughout the course to make you believe it’s a land fill. Course was a cow pasture and somehow they felt a 200.00 round was justified due to the Phoenix Open.

Overall, the course was fun to play and in good shape. There is a tremendous difference between the nines as the back nine progresses up and arroyo and is quite challenging.

The back nine is more challenging. Conditions are OK, but not worth $100+ fees.

Fairways and greens were in good shape, but everything else was really rough. We were told that the flooding was tough on the course, but that could not have been the reason for all the weeds, mud, etc. We had a deal for 9 holes and the meal was included. The ladies in the restaurant were super nice and the food was excellent. All in all, not bad.

The course isn't great. Staff was great unless you are in a hurry to get food at the turn. Lots of trash on the course, bricks in the way, lack of grass in many areas. The greens were nice, fairways decent but everything else needs a lot of work.

Would be great to see some of the plastic waste cleaned up

Thought I had booked 18 on a HotDeal. It was only for 9. Started on 10 and it was a fun thing to do.

They need a ranger on the course. The 3 guys in front of us on jan 17 said they were new to golf but hit from the tips and hit 2 balls off the tee on nearly every hole.

The starter spread people out well, we started on time and didn't go off until the group in front was on the par 4 green. But the first hole was the only one we didn't wait on. It was a v frustrating round and I won't go back, at least not for a long while.

After being met with vacant stares upon our arrival, we were quickly scolded by a geenskeeper to hit range balls off a mat instead of turf, with no signs indicating that was the rule, and plenty of divots in the turf. Subsequently we were greeted with trash strewn fairway edges and a homeless encampment. Go anywhere else..

There's ~15 other courses within 15 minutes, but you can't play ~12 of them for under $100. Several don't have the water hazards that Stonecreek has. For a budget course, it serves its purpose.

The tee boxes aren't in great condition - 15 was full of divots and dirt/sand. The rough is very patchy, although some spots had decent rough (holes 1-2, 8). Greens were average speed, people need to do a better job repairing ball marks and cleaning up in the sand. Decent amount of sand in the bunkers.

There's some challenge here. Lots of slopes around the greens. 4 holes with water on one side of the green. Front 9 took the driver out of your hands - didn't hit driver until hole 7. Many holes are tree-lined on the right side - if you slice you will lose balls.

No cart GPS, no water provided, no range balls provided, range is mat only. Range didn't seem very large, only about 15-20 stalls. No ball cleaners on the course. No towels provided. QR code didn't work for the grill at the turn.

The course is built on a wash, integrated with neighborhood walking paths. You will see a dozen people walking dogs, biking, exercising on the course. There's a bunch of trash in the ravine between holes 7-9. Tons of duck/goose poop on the 14th fairway.

This is a great course - we played in Jan during a cold stint. The negative that I wanted to mentioned was that there was a lot of trash all along the course. The most concerning part was the homeless people in the woods in the CENTER of the course - not the outskirts. I would think that the center of the course, nestled in between apartments and homes, would be more controlled. There were several times I had to give up on a ball cause it wasn’t safe to try to look for it,

The course was in decent shape. However, it was overbooked. Pace was play was 5 hours. My wife and I couldn't finish because we didn't plan on spending all day on the course. We got 12 holes in in 4.25 hours. Absolutely ridiculous.

Pace of play was HORRIBLE HORRIBLE. Tee time was at 2:36.. I personally didn’t get to tee off until at least 15-20 mins after because a whole old group of 5 looking at every shot like they are going throw a dart and just shank ALL over the place it was bad. 10-15 between each shot/tee box probably longer to be honest. Even better they put a 6 sum in front of them of just younger guys like myself but had no idea what there doing. Marshall comes up to my group of 3 hole #7 apologizes saying they put two really really bad groups in front keep in mind pace was a already almost 3 hours and if we want to skip a few holes ahead we can. I was already over it paying 73$ for this type of play. I was the only one playing 18 and told him I’ll just see if they can rain check me the other 9 he agreed and said they should no problem. I’m not one to go out my way to bash a business but it’s the fact the guy in the pro shop tried lying to my face saying they can’t rain check it because we’re on “PACE” of 4-4 1/2hrs lol I thought he was joking. People leaving right before me tee’d off at 11am its 5:15ish now but there on pace. It just felt like a pure rip off. Conditions are okay not horrible but not pure bumpy and super firm greens. So I’d be careful feels like there just stacking tee sheets overpriced letting people do whatever to keep income flowing. Worse experience I’ve had all year and I play a couple times a week scratch golfer. Unless you get a super hot deal or something cheap there’s so so many other courses that are PUUUURE and great pace. I should of at least been able to play 15-16 definitely finish with no hold up but instead I left on hole 7.

1. The driving range itees are a mess and not level, and the range balls old and and not included.

2. They don’t have ball washers on the course, they should provide towels. They don’t.

3. The tees are awful. They’re small and completely destroyed. If you are trying to stay within the two club distance of the markers, you will be standing in divots.

4. For hour and 40 minute round, enough said.
