such a fun course

It was a very hot day, 115 when I finished. The course is so much fun and plenty challenging. Tons of elevation changes. I think it is a second shot golf course. The staff couldn't have been better. Ice cold water every four holes. It's a great golf course!

Excellent greens and fairways

Played the Padre, best greens I've played on all summer. Quick. The course is in very good overall shape and offers an excellent track. Staff is always professional and I felt safe. Both courses are enjoyable and plenty challenging without being overly difficult.

Excellent course and staff

The Legacy is one of my favorite courses in the Valley. Conditions are always good and it is a fair, solid challenge. Every hole is a good golf hole and the greens are always among the best around. The staff is professional and accommodating. It is a great place to play, especially during the summer months. Great practice area and practice balls are included.

Enjoyable round of golf

I played the Faldo course and it was a lot of fun. Lots of fairway traps to dodge,. Good greens, sand, tee boxes, fairways. Very nice variety of holes. Some bare spots on fairways so I moved my ball a couple feet a few times. Staff is always friendly, professional and accommodating.

Always enjoy the Biltmore

I live close and have played both courses dozens of times in the past few years. The staff is always excellent and accommodating. Yesterday, I actually played 9 on the Links and 9 on the Adobe. I prefer the Links; however right not the Adobe is in better shape. The Links greens are slow and a bit bumpy now but the Adobe are good. It's not crowded at all so you can play fast if you want and the price is right. Get some good ice water by the cart station before you start. The cart girls are always great.

Fun course, great staff

I've been playing both courses at McR for many years. They both offer a challenging layout and the staff is always excellent. I played the Pine and it was in reasonable shape; not great but just fine. The greens were pretty good, fairways and traps about average. I played in under 3 hours and had a lot of fun.

Great staff, fun course

I've played the Links dozens of times in the past few years. It is always very enjoyable. The staff is always friendly, professional and accommodating. The front side is short and tight. I love the back 9 on the Links course. Every hole is very different with elevation changes and undulations, some spectacular views. The course is always in good shape and fun to play. If you hit it straight, you can score.

Arizona Grand Resort

Fun, scenic, interesting course

Arizona Grand is a unique golf course. Every hole is very different, lots of slopes, some awesome views. The front 9 is relatively open and the back 9 winds through some mountains with a few tight holes. You want to leave the driver in the bag much of the back 9 if you want to score. One hole I hit 5 iron, 7 iron and make a par. The staff is wonderful but no driving range and only a very small practice green. I've played it a dozen times and it's always fun! Arizona Grand is a gorgeous resort' great place for a drink or dinner after the round.

Enjoyable round of golf

Orange Tree is probably about 3 weeks out of overseeding, hence, cart path only. Greens were very good considering and fairways were nice but very little roll. Entire staff was friendly, professional and accommodating. Orange Tree is an old style course with many large trees, serene and pretty. It should be really good in a couple of weeks.

Very favorably impressed

I've been wanting to play Wildfire and did for the first time June 1. Bottom line, Wildfire is a class place. From the moment I pulled into the parking lot, everything was just about perfect. The entire staff was friendly and accommodating. The practice area is wonderful and the Faldo course was really fun to play. Greens were receptive and putted well. The traps are exceptional and it's a treat to hit out of top quality sand. The layout is fun; challenging enough without being too difficult. Fairways are wide but many fairway traps which are avoidable with a good tee ball. I played the blue/white combo (6250 yards) and shot 77 with an 8 handicap. I'm very thankful that I found a new, wonderful place to play during the summer. It's located just off Tatum, north of the 101.

Challenging desert course

I have played both of the courses at Whirlwind and it's always a treat and a challenge to play them. It's desert golf, fairways are reasonably wide, greens are excellent and a nice mix of holes. The practice area is wonderful and the staff is professional. I'm an 8 right now and it's not easy to shoot in the 70's. A little bit tricky to find.

Great staff, beautiful course

I played the Links course and it was really nice. Front side is short and pretty tight, back 9 is much more open, challenging and a great course. Greens were a little slow, traps were average and everything else was excellent. The staff is 100% professional and friendly. The Biltmore is a classy place and I always enjoy playing there.

Great golf course

Wigwam Gold is one of my favorite courses in the entire Valley, I just wish I lived closer. It is one of the few courses I could play every couple of weeks and never get tired of it. Really challenging approach shots just about every hole and the greens are excellent, running about 12 with plenty of slope. Excellent fairways and great sand in the traps. Heritage is also very good but the Gold is awesome.

Interesting executive course

Rolling Hills is a very nice executive course with many hills and elevation changes. You'll get to hit your driver 6-7 times and there are some fairly challenging par 3's, 185 yards or so to elevated greens. The staff was extremely nice and accommodating. 2.5 hour round.

Nice executive course

Nice executive course. There are 6 par 4's and I hit my driver on each one. Greens are pretty good and hold shots well. There's some water but only a couple of traps. Par 60. I'm a 7 handicap and I shot 63. Range and practice green are just fine. Staff is great; professional and very friendly.

Beautiful facility

First time playing at Whirlwind and it is a very nice golf course. We played the Devil's Claw. It's pretty open off the tee and a nice variety of holes. Fairways and tee boxes were very good and the greens were the best I've played in a while. Greens were pretty fast and rolled great. Not a difficult course but some challenging holes. It's a beautiful facility with great practice areas. I thought it was a little tricky finding Whirlwind off the I-10.

Nice golf course

This was my first time playing the Raven and it was a wonderful experience. The course is in excellent condition. The greens were soft, receptive and rolled nicely, fairly fast. Tee boxes and fairways were good, not sure about the traps but they were easy to avoid. It's pretty wide open, some water hazards, fairly easy to score. I shot a 74 and I'm a 6. The entire staff couldn't have been better. I plan to play it a few more times this summer.

Very nice place!

First time playing Talking Stick and the whole experience was excellent. The entire staff was professional and friendly. We played the South course and it was in pristine condition. White sand in the traps, very lush fairways, very good and challenging greens, flat and beautiful tee boxes. The course is moderately difficult and has a nice variety of holes. The wildlife is great, as is the practice area.
