Worth the time and $

Second time playing this course. Played 9 holes again but a different 9 from my last time out. Condition of fairways and greens excellent. Pace of play could be better but pace was tolerable for winter golf. I'll be back.

Nice layout, excellent condition

Played 9 holes on the Four Peaks course the day after Christmas. Fairways were full. Greens in excellent condition, a tad in the quick side which is to my liking. Booked as a single and grouped with three charming ladies. The only downside to the round: On the third hole we caught up with a FIVESOME!! Thereafter we waited on every shot. Why this was allowed on a relatively busy day is beyond me. Pace of play aside, a good experience. I'll be back.

An enjoyable round

Teed off mid-morning on a fairly hot (low 90s) day. Paired with a couple who were visiting the area. A pleasant couple to play 18 with. Course was in good condition. Greens on the fast side but to my liking and very putt-able. Pace of play was excellent as we played in just under 4 hours at 3:50. As always at Viewpoint, staff, from pro shop to starter to beverage cart lady (Christine), were pleasant and helpful.
I usually play this course 4-5 times during the snowbird season. I will certainly do so again next fall/winter. A good choice at a reasonable green fee.

A fine short course

First time playing this short (4,500 yd/par 63) course. Played 4 Peaks/Superstition 9s when I played. Played with members who were friendly and helpful in navigating the course. Conditions were quite good after a full winter season of play. My only (mild) complaint: the greens were quite slow for my taste. Not overly challenging for some golfers. However, the 27-hole layout is appropriately set in a 55+ community and I am a super senior so the course was perfect for my age and current skill level. All in all, a very nice course that I will certainly play again.

Always pleasant at Viewpoint

Booked as a single. Had a 9:15 tee time. When I checked in I was advised 3 others in my group had called and cancelled. Pro shop managed to get me in with a couple and a single walk-in. Got off earlier than my original tee time. Played with really nice folks, all three year 'round residents. Course in usual good shape. Greens fast but very putt-able. Played in 3:50. All in all, a very good golfing experience.

A very pleasant round

Played in a foursome at mid-morning. Played in just under four hours. Pace was very good for Arizona this time of year. Tee boxes in good shape. Fairways a bit thin but acceptable. Greens were VERY fast with severe sloping. But greens were very consistent. All in all a very nice round if golf

Greens need more time

This is one of my go-to courses for a fun round. At 5800 yards, the course is comfortable for a mid 70s (age not scores) golfer. Fairways generally okay. Greens were unputtably slow. Another couple of weeks and one good cutting and the course will be in tip-top shape. I won't play it until then. Looking forward to playing the Links I remember.

Good post overseeding condition

Course was cart path only due to recent overseeding. Greens a bit slow for the same reason. Fairways condition was excellent. As always, Las Colinas will be in all around terrific condition with a couple more weeks of growth.. One of the he best high season deals around.

Always enjoyable

Staff took all appropriate precautions relative to COVID-19. Also friendly and efficient. Course in good condition especially for late May. Played as a threesome in 3 hours 15 minutes. All I've come to expect at this course, in the very best sense. Will certainly play again next season.

Mostly a good experience

The Links is reliable. Great staff, good course conditions, and scoring friendly for the older club player. Usually play this course at a very good pace. Not today. On front nine we were behind a VERY slow foursome. Waited 5 minutes on every shot. After five holes two full holes open in front of them. Marshall had our group play through on 10th tee. In the end, all worked out. There was a problem and the staff took care of it. Can't ask for more. Will certainly play again but next season for this snowbird.

Great round under Corona virus conditions

The Links went above and beyond to keep staff and golfers safe. Check in was at closed snack bar window. Credit card only. One person to a cart if desired. Ball washers covered, etc. Course was in usual very good condition. Foursome played in 3 hours 16 minutes. Great course for the older golfer (I'm 73).

A very windy day

Toka Sticks is always a fun course to play. Course conditions are rather typical for an Arizona public course. Course layout is both fun and somewhat challenging. Greens are on the quick side but run very true. Very high winds today. A consistent 20 mph wind with occasional gusts close to 30 mph. Club selection a real challenge. Played in just under 4 hours. More than acceptable in wind conditions. I will return here.

An hour and a quarter frost delay. Received an early email advising of delay. Very helpful. Once we teed off good pace of play. Played in 4 hours. Very good course conditions. Greens on the quick side but they putt true. An enjoyable round. I recommend it.

All I expected

First time playing this TPC course. Everything I expected. Staff courteous and helpful. Course conditions magnificent. Greens on the quick side but that, too, was expected. Only minor complaint: No marshall and we followed an incredibly slow group. Caught the. On 7 and waited on every single shot thereafter. Didn't allow pace to affect s great day. All in all, a great experience and round of golf.

Dreadful pace of play

As always, everything about this course was terrific until we got to our approach shots on the first hole. We waited at least 5 minutes to be able to hit. Not once in the course of the entire round could we walk to a tee shot or a fairway shot on a par 4 and hit. Slightly over 4 hours to play on a course where 3- 3 1/2 hours is acceptable.
Having said that, course conditions were quite good, the greens very good, and staff very friendly and helpful, particularly the young lady in the grill room who is a Boston Red Sox fan! I will definitely play again.

Enjoyable course

Got a great hot deal. This course is perfect for seniors. 4200 yard Executive course with 7 par 4s, no par 5s, par 3s of varying lengths requiring use of all irons. I used from 4 hybrid to gap wedge,. Conditions of the course are quite good with the recent rainy weather. Greens quick but fair and consistent with significant slopes and breaks. Pace of play excellent. Played in less than 3 1/2 hours. Staff was particularly helpful and friendly, both in the pro shop and the grill. Will certainly play again.

Good Course for all

Played at noon on a cool and very windy day. Made the course more difficult than it would have otherwise been. Good Course for all levels of players with four sets of tees. Very nice layout with quite a number of signature Pete Dye railroad ties.
Course in good condition for this time of year. A couple of thinned fairways and neglected greens. Pro shop staff very friendly and helpful. I will return here.

Booking issues

Had a 10:45 tee time. Had a one hour fifteen minute frost delay which is not the fault of the course. This time of year, that happens. However, the tee times were booked much too closely. We were a foursome and waited on every single shot a minimum of 5 minutes. There is no excuse for that.
The course was in very good condition and staff was most helpful EXCEPT the Rangers who were useless. Never moved the groups along. It was not a terribly pleasant round of golf.
