Enjoyable

The course is in nice condition, lots of challenging holes with water coming into play and several holes, narrow fairways. Enjoyed playing here and will play again.

Course condition

Front nine is in excellent condition. Don’t understand why back nine not. Greens somewhat burned out. Weeds growing in traps. You would think they are two different courses. Overall enjoyable.

Decent course

Like so many other Scottsdale area courses, , overpriced. Range balls not included and no area to chip.
Convenient and plenty of tee times, would play again for under $100.

Thank you for playing Starfire and thank you for the feedback. Starfire feels so fortunate to have a driving range now as it didn't for over 65 years and was finally constructed back in 2018. Maybe a chipping green could be in the cards down the road.
We hope to welcome you back again soon.
