Friendly staff

The staff was great and redeemed the experience. A little overpriced for the condition of the course. Greens are a mess. Did not feel like a Troon course.

Aerated greens were a war zone - no one mentioned at bookinh

Have wanted to play here for awhile, flew in just to play for two days, and what an incredible waste of money and time. Super bummed to not have bern told of the absolute terrible condition of the course when booking. No refund. No discount offer end, no future credit extended…. Just grab your wallet sir, we’ve got an experience for you!

I wasted my time and money here.

punched greens

Played Thursday July 25 with wife. Greens just punched, very bumpy. Bought time through golf now or would have left when pro shop told us about greens. Played front in around 2 hours behind a fast threesome which was behind a slow 4some. Got to 10th tee and saw an 8 some teeing off. Yes , i also couldnt believe it. AN Eightsome. Drove cart back to clubhouse and informed cart boys, one of them didnt seem too concerned. Bottom line is we left. Wont be back , ever.

Recently Aerated - Avoid!

Neither GolfNow nor the Phoenician website alert one to the current condition of the course. Fairways and greens were recently punched and neither have recovered well at all. The greens are like playing a game of Plinko. Tee boxes are not in good condition, either. Very disappointed for the money. A short drive up to the Fountain Hills area will yield courses that are on the top courses to play lists at the same or less summer price.

Great course

Besides playing at 110F, the course is amazing. Really had fun playing it. Greens are fast and fairways pretty wide.

HOT AND SLOW

Tee’d off at 12. Been playing rounds all over phoenix last month at 12-1230 because i want cheap rates and everyone plays in 3 hours on 18 almost all the courses in this heat. It’s hot and MOVE. Not here… it’s resort style, people on vacation, being slow. Took 5 hours to play 18. Maybe play later in afternoon when no one is playing? This course can be played in 2.5 hours easily if no one to slow you down.

Signage was excellent

Signage was excellent for first time visitors to the course. Carts were very nice (GPS was very helpful in blind spots). Disappointed though that food/drink was not available at the turn.
