Great but...

The course is in great shape for Sept. The service was also great. The only thing I didnt like was it was toooo wide open. Great for fast play but reduces the challenge even for a high handicapper like me. Im going to try Firecliff next. All things aside it is a must play course!

GREAT COURSE

Great course in the middle of the valley and across the street from the JW MARRIOTT. You can’t go wrong with either of the 2 courses.

great course ... SLOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWW round

Great course and great company as I was a single that got paired w/ two other singles. Great guys and good golfers. And good thing too b/c we spent more than 5 hours together. Why do ppl constantly play from the wrong tees? I don't understand the value of 200+ yard approach shots on short par 4s. Just play from the correct tees ... we won't think less of you. Quite the opposite in fact.

Firecliff at Desert Willow

This is my 2nd round at this course. Right now it’s off season and the value can’t be beat providing one can tolerate playing in 110 degree weather. It’s a beautiful course and exceptionally well maintained, If you’re in the area and looking for a great deal on a beautiful course don’t miss this. Wouldn’t be surprised if the rates add another $100 in season. Hoping to play the Mountainview tract before rates climb but I’d pay the full freight cause it’s worth it. Beautiful course.
