Good course

Seemed like Marshall would push us even thou we were not playing slow not giving us time to look for golf balls so he could find them.

Good round, a bit pricey

I played Canyon/Oasis course. Perfect weather and great company for the round. The course was in great shape with a bunch of different type of holes (water, dogleg, blind shots). Great practice facilities (watch out on the 8th hole of the Oasis course). The course is a bit pricey, but is connected to a resort, so it is expected.

First time at the Phoenician

For your reference, my guy shoots around 80 and I average around 93. This course is very scenic. He thinks it was pretty good, maybe its not long enough for big hitters (approx 6200 yards from the tips.) I loved it. Not overly easy, not so difficult either. I absolutely enjoyed every whole. We did not get to play the Oasis nine.... we played Desert then Canyon for our 18 holes. You do not have a wide berth, yet there are truly no narrow holes on those nines. Great couples course, we would go back for sure to get the Oasis in :-)

The course is in wonderful condition.

Great course! The day we played was windy which added to the difficulty of play. We enjoy the course and would play again.

Tricked up

The courses are unnecessarily tricky. Probably the result of sticking 27 holes into a space that would easily have accommodated 18 good holes.

Beautiful course

We played all 3 courses which gave us a good comparison. The Canyon and Desert courses were in the best shape and had the most majestic views. All courses are not too difficult that the higher handicapper gets too frustrated but yet challenging enough for the low handicap players. Staff is friendly and accommodating course was in great shape. We had an enjoyable round of golf.

Views are fantastic

Played Oasis and Desert.. The Oasis is the easiest of the three courses. Lots of water though. When we previously played the Cayon the last four holes were extremely hard. It, may have been that number 6, by entry to resort, seemed unfair and we set ourselves up for difficulty on the last three holes. The Desert is our favorite because of the views of Scottsdale and Phoenix from the back of Camelback mountain.

Beautiful course, beautiful views

Really great conditions after some rain in the Phoenix area. Very interesting holes that attract the eye and make each tee box a joy.

This Course is not as Special as it Used to Be

When I discovered a last minute tee-time at the Phoenician for $99 while visiting Scottsdale for a conference, I jumped on it. I played it about ten years ago and recalled a short but fun track that was in immaculate condition with remarkable landscaping. While the fairways and greens were fine, the rough was dormant Bermuda, and the bunkers and some of the tee boxes were terrible, especially on the short par threes. It's certainly not in the same condition that it once was. While still a fair value at $99 during the high season in Scottsdale, there are other courses in the area I would have rather played.
