Always Love Orange Tree!

This was our last round of our annual girls golf trip, and I was excited to find Orange Tree at a reasonable rate! It had been a favorite in the past, but we had been priced out of playing it in recent years. The staff were great, we played in under 4 hours, and would have loved to enjoy beverages and bites after our round but had a previous engagement. Thank you Orange Tree for the perfect last round of our special week!

Better than last time

We had 2 rounds booked at Painted Mountain for our annual Girls Golf Trip. While we were disappointed the first time, it was a bit better the second time around. Knowing the course helped and the staff was much friendlier and helpful. Pace of play was still on the slow side. Still keeping PM off our list of courses to play.

Great Day with the Ladies

While the conditions were a bit rough, my golf girls and I had a great day at Ahwatukee GC. The
Course has personality, and the beer girl and staff in the restaurant were friendly and accommodating. Food and beverages were a good value and delicious. Definitely keeping this course on the list for future girls golf trips to the area.

Hot and cold

We played Painted Mountain for the first time with our ladies golf trip. When we arrived, a member event was just finishing so there was no where to put our bags at the bag drop. We unloaded the car and found an area, but not one of the gentlemen in the starters booth even made eye contact with us - too busy flirting with the members. Finally they let us know that there were no carts available, and when they finally brought carts up, no assistance was offered to load our bags. However at the end of the round, the cart guys were very polite and helpful with loading the car.

The course itself is fine for the price we paid. Greens are in good condition, tee boxes a bit rough, and if you are not in the fairway, there are a lot of area with gravel/sand. None of this particularly bothered us as we are from Alaska and have played much worse!

The pro shop is very nice - almost a gift boutique with a wide variety of products. Mimi in the restaurant was delightful and the Friday fish fry was well done.

We will play the course again as we’ve already booked a tee time, but we are taking it off our list for future trips.

First day of Girls Golf Course

Day 1 of a girls golf week, and this was the perfect course to knock the rust off our games. Staff was friendly, course forgiving, and we played in just over 4 hours. The greens are abut slow, and some of the pin positions were a bit mean, but we all had a great day and will definitely play again on future trips.

Great condition

We booked the Santa Rosa course on Golf Now, but when we arrived, we were told we were at the wrong golf course. When I showed my confirmation e-mail to the staff member, he said they have that problem with GolfNow and I should contact the company - seems like they should be doing that.

We had plenty of time, so schlepped all our bags back in the car and proceeded to the Gregornio pro shop. There we discover there is no beer cart, and that the bar/restaurant is closed for renovations. That certainly would have been nice to know before we left the other course!

But we had a great time, course is in great condition , and pace of play for a Sunday was good. Bit of a weird course layout with the front 9 heavily stacked with par 3s & 5s, but enjoyable and well maintained.

Dissappointed with Conditions

I've played Terra Lago North many times over the last 15 years, so had no reservations about making tee times for a group of friends gathering in the desert. So dissappointed with the conditions, that we are permanently taking it off our course rotation list. The pro shop staff was almost rude, the restaurant isn't open - even though there is plenty of space for outside seating - and the course conditions were horrid. Not sure what they have done to their greens, but they are awful. 3 putting was the norm. I understand there are challenges with COVID, but they could at least rake the traps every other day. The starter was wonderful as was the beverage cart lady, but those were the only bright spots. Sad to say I will not be back.

Great Day

Played this course while visiting friends in the area. It was a hot deal so great price. The 4 of us played in under 4 hours and that was with cart path only! Greens a little rough as they just finished their overseeding, but not bad considering the price and overall experience. Beautiful course.

We didn’t know it would be cart path only until after we booked, but GolfNow did send an e-mail apologizing and giving us the option to rebook. We decided to go for it and we’re glad we did. Will definitely be back!
