Ak-Chin Southern Dunes Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Stretching over 320 acres in the southwest area, Ak-Chin Southern Dunes Golf Club (previously known as Royal Dunes) transforms mostly flat terrain into a challenging course that uses practically twice the amount of land a standard course. The course incorporates superb landscaping featuring towering mounds and hollow valleys for an interesting and scenic game. This desert golf course has wide fairways and generous landing areas. The dunes-style layout requires precision from tee to green. The difficulty of the golf course lies within the deep, strategically placed sand bunkers, multi-tiered greens, and native grass roughs. Ak-Chin Southern Dunes Golf Club provides adequate challenge for players of any skill level.

Very challenging with many bunkers
Really enjoyed the course. Lots of trouble with the 109 bunkers and this particular gay the greens were rolling at around a 12. Very quick but a true roll. Enjoyed it a lot!
What a Day!
The moment you drive on to the property you know this golf facility is going to be special! From the bag drop area right to the service on the patio the experience at southern dunes was exceptional. What a fantastic golf experience!
Sand !
Great course. Fairways and greens were in mint condition.
Sand sand sand in all the challenging positions.
Rain Rain Rain
We arrived at the course and it was raining. The golf course was giving rain checks, but because we booked through Golf Now we had to address the rain check with Golf Now. Multiple attempts to reach Golf Now failed! The golf club staff also tried and failed to reach Golf Now. The course staff said they would verify the rain issue if Golf Now called them. I spend over $300 for my wife and I to play the course and need a refund or a credit for future golf from Golf Now. I am not a happy customer of Golf Now and would like them to call me so we can get the matter corrected.
Morning Round
Another nice day at Ak-Chin! We were the 3rd group out and we played in 3.5 hours!
Challenging course which requires accurate shots as the bunkers will eat you up.
Well maintained and a pleasure to play in the morning.
Must play when in Pheonix area
It was really a great course if you can consistently hit it in the air on your approach shots, a beginner would be in a sand trap on every hole.
In Great shape
Course is in phenomenal shape. Greens are rolling fast and true.
Beautiful Course
Sourhern Dunes is a great course In wonderful condition. Greens are first rate and fairways super nice. The staff are all friendly and the grill has very nice selections. One of the best overall courses I have played. All the prices of Phoenix area courses have gone through the roof the last couple of years. So much for growing the game but if they get enough play that is really what matters. If you can get a good price or are comfortable with the fee you will enjoy the course.
