The course at the Orange Tree Golf Resort provides an excellent game of golf in a luxurious setting. The Parkland-style layout features fairways lined with mature trees, which not only enhance the natural beauty of the golf course but can also greatly affect shots. Four lakes are situated on the flat terrain of the course, providing water hazards that come into play on five holes. Sand bunkers also surround every green. Orange Tree Golf Resort's course finishes with its signature hole, where water cuts into the fairway and proceeds to run down the left side all the way to the green. It also requires accuracy on the approach shot in order to hit the small putting surface that is surrounded by tricky elements.

Good conditions. Simple, flat layout. But poor scheduling hampered our day.

This is an older style track, very flat, winding through and older, upscale neighborhood. No desert or Arizona scenery, it feels more like a course from back East. Tall trees and some water to be found on a few holes. Condition was good overall.

Pace of play, however, was terrible, especially for a summer round. First, I was called 2 hours ahead of my tee time to be politely told my start was pushed back 30 mins. It ended up being more than 45. Someone had overbooked two early tournaments. All tee times that day were shoved back and crammed into the afternoon, making the pace unbearably slow. I recently heard they laid off their tournament director, and it's obviously hurting their planning. Things happen, I understand, but I can't help feeling a bit put off, like a 2nd class customer to them. How about offering a free round, or a drink coupon, or something? I even had to pay for a bucket of warm up balls.

At least the price of the round was right, so maybe you get what you pay for. But I'm not in a hurry to play there again, unfortunately.

Well established course.

From tee off to the last hole you get the feeling that you’re taken care of. Well groomed fairways and smooth greens.

Disappointing Experience

First time playing this course and with what I paid, expected more. The golf holes are pretty boring, and course conditions were fair at best.

Needs water

Both greens and fairways are starting to dry out. Some extra water would be helpful to overall conditions.

Good location, amenities and course

Staff was welcoming and friendly. the outside veranda watching people come in on 18 was very nice too. Last time I was here the course was in better shape, fairway was dry and needed some work on their bunkers. Not that bad though. Play for a lot of run on your tee shots. Also a good course for higher handicappers and shorter hitters.

Don’t pay the over rated price

It’s more like a muni course than a top rated $150. Course to play in this area. Look around there are others courses to play that are a better value on GN overpriced!! Flat course with women tee s in the middle of the fairway!!

Slow greens

Conditions overall were fine. Greens were very slow. Other than a bit of water it’s hard to get into trouble.
