Prescott Golf Club

I play this course regularly. It is a nice layout which is a fair test for amateurs of all abilities. New management earlier in 2019 has made a difference in the experience. Improvements to the course, the personnel, the check-in and more are under way and are helping this course get better. The setting has many scenic vistas which, to me, make the experience more enjoyable. The greens are improving and are challenging, but fair. The cost is reasonable but deals are available if you are flexible for playing time. I recommend PGC to anyone living or traveling in the Prescott, AZ area.

Fairways far too narrow and rough far to tall for average golfer play. Course tricked up by this and not fun for average golfer. Could be easily fixed with proper mowing. Most players on this course are average and/or many Seniors.... not a good match for course set-up at all. This is not the US OPEN, There are other options available for the local golfer. Also the course is spotty as regards condition of fairways and greens. Tee set-up with 5 sets of tees is excessive and unnecessary. Whites only 5 to ten yards shorter than blues...might as well play the blues??

I had played PGC 4 years ago and thought the course was in pretty rough condition. After reading some reviews I decided to give it a try again. Wow what a difference. Lush green fairways and nice greens. I fully expect it will improve even more within a few months work on some of the cart paths needs to be done. More sand in traps will help (although they are executable now) and a second cut on the fairways would be a plus instead of Fairway deep rough conditions now (If you can keep it in the fairway noe no problem exits --LOL). This is going to become my go to course in Prescott area. By the way the food was good too and service excellent.

The course was in excellent shade and the employees were friendly. Highly recommend.

Jim L. in the pro shop was warm, friendly, and explained the Senior discount quite well. At the desk is a large sign requesting only two golf carts per foursome. The members disregard that sign and let it be known they do not like outsiders at THEIR course. One woman, I would guess in the 08:12 AM tee time, on the warm-up range let it be known she did not appreciate "outsiders" ( a term she used several times) at HER course. Had I not already paid for the round, I would have left over her rudeness and disrespect.
The new management group appears to be spending money to upgrade the course. They have a bit more work to do. The greens were very good, but the fairways needed work.
Normally I would not say not to play a course. However, until the new management educates the "members" on the absolute need for "outsiders' money "to sustain the course, I will not be back.

My favorite best value heat getaway course in this state. Apparently the pump broke for 7 days yes a little dry but other than that can't beat the weather the value for the course okay how do I post it

Not a bad course and not too busy during week. Decent amount of elevation change. Greens in decent shape.

Horrible conditions, this used to be a lush course but I don’t know what’s going on but I don’t think they can save it this year. Don’t waste your time or money like I did. D

Don’t go until they get the course in playing shape! I’ve played this course about a dozen times over the past 4 years and I’ve never seen it like this! over half the greens are nearly burnt out dead the other half may be 1/2 burnt out. The fairways are 1/2 dead as well. I paid $120 for my 3 sum and wouldn’t have paid $50 if I’d know how bad it would have been. Disappointed sine this course is only 1 hour from my home in the NW Peoria area, I will miss getting in my car in July and Aug for the short drive to Dewy for a pleasant round at Prescott CC.

Fun round with a bit of undesirable help from the wind. The course was in nice shape. (The fairways could have been cut a little shorter). Had a pretty good round for my level.

Hopefully under new ownership course conditions will improve. This used to be in great shape but currently needs just a little work to return to what it was.
Pace of play was slow due to group of "volunteers" using their last punch cards for free play.

There is nothing more frustrating than hitting a perfect drive right down the middle of the fairway only to find your ball sitting in a sunken patch of dirt. Golfers are suppose to be rewarded for shots like this, not penalized by hitting out of crap like that! There are spots like this all over the course and it’s unacceptable! Also, the bunker sand is rock hard in many of the bunkers making it impossible to make a decent shot! I thought this course had new ownership that was improving things. We’ve played this course many times as we like to get out of the heat in Phoenix. We will no longer make the drive as long as these conditions exist. I see very little improvement with the change of ownership and in some cases the course is worse!

I am writing this in hopes that management will take note of poor proshop attendant . Had a 1pm tee time and arrived about 45 minutes early, we told the cart assistant we were early and he said course wasn't busy at all and we could start right away. Got in to pay and was charged 20 buck more because we started early. When questioned about it, attendant at register said , "Well you can just wait then till your scheduled tee time." I have golfed all over at much nicer courses and if they weren't busy and I arrive early they honor the rate that I booked my tee time for. I would totally understand if they were busy, but in this case no one was waiting and the parking lot was nearly empty. I then asked if I could demo a club and attendant looked at me like I was from another planet to ask such a thing. Prescott Valley is a golf destination and this course was in great condition for early season and I was surprised there was so few people there, but after how I was treated I can see why people would go elsewhere. Great course, but very disrespectful employee and I like many other customers want to be treated like a customer NOT like an annoyance!!

A good layout but.....
Fairways need work
Greens need work
Traps need sand
There are better golf values in the area
