Foothills Golf Club
Played On 03/18/2024No leeway
Course is very challenging especially when it is windy. Fairways were very good and greens grassy. Did not seem if greens had been cut requiring you to putt much harder than other valley courses. Due to the difficulty of the course, a 4 1/2 round is normal.
Was required to pay for our 4th player despite him not being able to play due to a family emergency. I understand policy but leniwncy in this case would have appreciated,
Crowne Plaza San Marcos Golf Resort
Played On 02/16/2024Great Place to play - BUT
I like San Marcos but slow play and sand traps make me wonder if I will come back. I am from the Midwest and a golf round is usually 3 - 4 hours. At San Marcos, it was 4 1/2. In addition, the course set-up with sand traps on both sides of all greens is diabolical - contributing to the slow play ( put some sand in the traps to give the no-pros a chance without hitting the ball across the green into the other side trap).
Kokopelli Golf Course
Played On 01/24/2024Terrible playing conditions
Fairways wet and slippery. Standing water in m low lying area. Mud areas slippery - slipped and fell and almost broke my hip. Will not play here again because course management did nothing to improve the playing conditions. Please take more pride in your course.
Crowne Plaza San Marcos Golf Resort
Played On 01/19/2024water and sand needed
Course is dry and hard - needs plenty of water to make the grass grow. Greens hard as bricks requiring you to roll ball on green. Sand traps need sand - almost impossible to hit out of sand. Even though the course was in OK shape, round was fun because of two playing oartners

Played On 02/29/2024Rudy's round
Course in real good shape. Fairway grass is best in Valley. Greens difficult to putt due to speed. Bunkers need sand to allow better ability to get out. Even though there was a single in front of us, pace of play was not affected.
Have noticed the price for the course has increased substantially which will limit the number of times I can play.
Kokopelli Golf Course
Played On 03/20/2023worst course ever
it is amazing how you can take a nice course and ruin it over the last three years - but still charge as if an elite course. the grass isn't reasonable cut and the rough is either weeds or dirt. Coupled with lakes from rain in the middle of the course that eats balls that you cannot retrieve. The greens are not much better than the fairways due to undulations that make it almost impossible to putt. So, save your money and go elsewhere or if you play, ask for a refund.
Coldwater Golf Club
Played On 03/17/2023Nice Course
Course is better than most in the Phoenix area.
Fairways nice and greens puttable. Keep the ball in the fairway is the key.
Dobson Ranch Golf Course
Played On 03/03/2023Improved course management
I really look forward to Playing Dobson Ranch, however this last round was terrible - not because of course conditions or putting greens or layout - it was because of the poor course management by Dobson Ranch. I ha
d a late tee time 1:50p and the starter said they were 1 tee time behind, When I looked at the group in front of us, they were playing a fivesome. I asked the starter how can you allow a fivesome on a Friday afternoon? He replied, they play fast - you'll never see them. Wrong! (This group was a bachelor party and they were drinking heavy). Now I am for having fun on the golf course - but not when it delays the entire course. Realistically, this group was not the real problem, but groups in front them not being monitored by marshals. As a result, I quit after 15 holes due to frustration and no light.
I really enjoy playing Dobson Ranch - but this time makes me wonder if I will ever play again without changes to how the course in managed. Maybe a free round would make me feel better since i was not allowed to finish this one.
Ahwatukee Country Club
Played On 03/01/2023Need to lower prices
Fairways in decent shape but the greens are crusty and difficult to putt on. Course condition overall is so-so for the amount of money to play the course. Need to lower the price for me to play again as well as all the other courses in the Phoenix valley. seems like everyone is taking advantage of golfers this year because of WMS, super bowl, and spring training

Played On 02/15/2023Great Time
Course in good shape. Fairways and greens hard and fast. Great place to fish golf balls out of the canal.
The Duke at Rancho El Dorado
Played On 02/13/2023Fun time
Course in fairly good shape. Do not understand the flowing water across several cart paths. (Need to correct) Fairways and greens are hard and fast. Several holes almost impossible to two putts due to the quickness and slope of the green positions. In better shape than when we played the course last year. Good job!

Francisco Grande Resort & Golf Club
Played On 02/09/2023save your money.
I was really excited about playing this course since someone in Phoenix recommended it several years ago. Looking at the website, the course looks beautiful with green grass fairways and luscious greens. These pictures must have been taken years ago because the course never looked anything like the pictures. the fairways are hard as rocks and the greens just as hard and fast. keeping the ball in play is required because if you miss the fairways, your ball is probably on hard dirt, not desert sand. My recommendation would be to save your money (and travel time) and play elsewhere. P.S. The Barros pizza in Casa Grande is Great.
Crowne Plaza San Marcos Golf Resort
Played On 01/23/2023played with a nice lady
Course in really good shape. Fairways nice and green with the greens firm and fast. Teamed with a nice lady on first tee - fun to play with. Marshalls were extremely.\ courteous making the round enjoyable.
P.S. Not a smart move "jacking the price" for golf during WMS and Super Bowl to $150. To me, this is criminal and will come back to bite them in the butt later.
Bear Creek Golf Complex - Bear Course
Played On 01/19/2023Chuck and i
Course in good shape with fairways green and the greens fast and impossible to putt. Course too expensive for the quality of the course. Taking advantage of snow birds.
Toka Sticks Golf Club
Played On 01/18/2023Iowa boys
Course in good condition with really plush fairways and hard and fast greens. Playing partners from Iowa were really fun to play with. Course fees are too high for the quality of the of the layout. Also, recommend lowering beer prices to make it affordable.
San Tan Highlands
Played On 01/12/2023Good group
Course is really good shape. Fairways in great shape. The greens are superb. Only issue is several holes are ridiculous causing play to back up. Need to correct (remove) these backlogs before I change my courserating to a 10.
Thank you for your review, rezabfw. We will pass along your positive experience to our team at The Golf Club at Johnson Ranch. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Foothills Golf Club
Played On 03/27/2023No cars available
Red course in great shape. Fairways easy to hit from and greens slower than normal. Will play course again.
However, our foursome was not allowed to get a cart for a disabled person who wanted to ride with his son. We were told there were no carts available- even though we saw several waiting by the starter on the red course ( even though we offered to pay). Thought this policy is very poor and does not represent fair treatment for disabled people). We were required to take turns walking a hole at a time or standing on the back of a cart). This was extremely hard getting to the red course from the clubhouse.
In addition, we saw no detour signs to the course due to road construction- poor.
Given all the above, we still enjoyed playing the course and recommend this course. Improvements in directions and policy would make it even better.
Mission Royale Golf Club
Played On 02/24/2023Long way to play golf
Course hard and crusty but playable. Fairways rolling and fast. Greens undulating and difficult to putt on. Bunkers are terrible with hardly any sand. Would like to play again since I know the layout
Hi Reza, thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We apologize for the wet conditions you experienced during your visit and hearing you slipped and fell. After receiving an 1" of rain we did our best to get the course ready to play. Please reach out and email our GM regarding your fall.
