Fun course

The course was in good shape. It's a short course but it has many challenges to make up for It's length. Definitely would play it again.

Slow

We left after 14 holes. If we would've stayed it would've been over a 5 hour round.

Great course

From tee to green this course was in great shape. If you get a chance to play it, take advantage. Some of the holes are a little more forgiving from the tee box than most desert courses, but there is still plenty of trouble lurking.

Scenic

Most everything was very good. Scenery was amazing. The only improvement that could be made is the traps. They need sand. I was in a couple and there was only a dusting of sand.

Greens

Hole after hole cut out into the side of a hill or hitting par 3's from high elevation make this course extremely challenging. The problem are the greens! They were VERY bad. Being punched in the last two weeks is no excuse for the grass on the greens being higher than the fringe on most courses. If they can get the greens even in average condition, this would be a must play course. Pace of play was also 4 and a half hours.

Enjoyable

It was a great experience from beginning to end. The only negative was that the greens were punched and the ball struggled to roll true through the holes. I also struggled with the course philosophy of putting the cart direction signs in the fairway from 70 to 100 yards out from the front edge of the greens. This surely has a negative impact somewhat on pace of play.

Sand

Tee boxes and fairways were very good. Greens were smoothe but were full of sand. They weren't punched, just full of sand. The speed of the greens were still fine, but because of the sand, they didn't hold at all. They needed sand in the traps which didn't have hardly any at all. Overall this course is very challenging with very strategically placed traps. Definitely worth playing again.

The course was in average condition. The grass on the tee boxes was a little long. The fairways were adequate. The greens rolled fine but they didn't hold. There are some challenging holes. If you can get on it for less than $45, it's worth it.

Fivesomes

I'm not sure why we were scheduled to go off as a fivesome. We were a twosome and there was twosome that went off in front of us, but instead they sent us off with another threesome. There was also a fivesome behind us. It only slowed down our round.

Two completely different nines

Front nine was fairly easy until you got to the green. Positioning of your ball on the green was more critical on this course than most. Downhill putts move very quick on these greens.
The back nine was mostly target golf. The clubhouse was fantastic and the staff were very friendly. If you haven't tried this course, you should. I'd go back.

Slow play

The course was in great shape, but the pace of play was poor. It took us 5 hours to complete our round. We waited on every shot. We did see the player assistant twice but he obviously didn't speed up the groups in front of us. Many courses give a tee sheet to the player assistant so he knows how each group is doing. I'm not sure if they do this here or not. I played this course last year at a good pace, so I hope it was a one time issue. All in all I would still come back to play this course.

Hi Albatross6, Thank you for the 4 star review and recommendation! Pace of play normally moves very well at the course, so this seemed to be a one time issue. We look forward to having you back on the course soon!

Greens need attention

Course had a challenging layout, but it needs some work. Greens need some work. I putted on the practice green prior to teeing off and hoped that the greens on the course would be better. They were not. Several greens had skinned spots on them which needs to be addressed.

Hidden Trouble

Course had some challenging holes, especially from non visible trouble from the tee box. It would be helpful to have pictures of the holes on the scorecards or on the yardage markers on the tee box. Having a GPS with a picture of the hole is a must here. Greens were a little slow due to sand on them. It was a fun course to play! I would definitely play it again.

Average course

This is a decent municipal course. Previous review indicated slow pace of play. We finished in 4 hours and 15 minutes which is about average. Greens hard and quick.

Overpriced!

The best part about the course are the views! I played 10 courses in the past two weeks in Arizona. This one was in the worst shape. Tee boxes were below average, the fairways were ok, and the greens were quick, but very bumpy! If you pay more than $45 for this course, you paid too much!!!

Slow pace and closes early

We left the first tee box on time at 1pm. We finished our round at 5:45. We waited on almost every shot. Since they announced your name to proceed to the first tee, they really didn't need a starter sitting in a cart next to the tee. The players would be better served if the starter was out on the course checking on pace of play. The greens and fairways were in very good shape. Some of the tee boxes need to be leveled and the grass needs to be cut. The clubhouse was closed at 5:45 when we finished. Now I know why there were some people in the parking lot with small coolers and we're standing there having a beer!!!
