About

Holes 18
Type Semi-Private
Par 67
Length 5155 yards
Slope 103
Rating 67.4

Ironwood Golf Course is an 18-hole course with many challenging elements. There are water hazards that come into play on five holes and the holes that don't have water have strategically placed sand bunkers coming in to play. All of the greens are sloped and some are undulating as well. One interesting asset of the course is the extensive mounding; the unique and interesting placement can cause uneven lies. The course is tricky but there are three sets of tee boxes to adapt to a variety of abilities and handicaps. The Ironwood Golf Course facility also features practice facilities including a putting green and chipping area.

Great course at Sun Lakes

The Ironwood Golf Course was a great course, longer than an executive course, but shorter than regulation size. The staff in the bar grill afterward were friendly and extremely helpful. We will definitely be playing this course again.

enjoyabe

Very well maintained course with straightforward layout and generous hitting areas. This is not the place to go for a long and challenging round BUT it is fun to play and a relaxing round. As long as you have the right expectations, you will enjoy.

Great conditions.

1st time playing here and can't wait to play here again. It is a shorter course but they make up for it with bunkers etc. to keep it challenging. We did a bit of waiting on others but on a beautiful Saturday afternoon we knew it would be busy. the two of us still finished in <4hours.

Not sure if it is in a retirement community. The staff wasn't overly friendly outside of the marshal who we saw often. Can't complain though.

Valentines Day Ironwood

The greens were in perfect shape they held the ball with my wedge shots & even the one time I was teaching my girlfriend a bump & run shot. Fairways were green & not soaked, we did start at 12:45 BTW; so can't speak for earlier. The cart service was once per side but that's okay ( a beer will set you back a whole of 2.50) we weren't looking to get plowed!!! The staff at the club house was very nice we even got asked by the gentleman that signed us in how it went as he was at the bar sipping a martini afterwards.

Ironwood Golf Course

We had never played this course before and were pleasantly surprised. We all enjoyed the course very much. While not as long as some of the other courses there were still two par 5's. A nice course for couples to play.

ALWAYS A NICE EXPERIENCE

Have played Ironwood three times and it is fun to play for the most part. We play from the tips and it is still not very long, although some of the par 3's from the tips make up for it. In our 60's it is enjoyable to play. As usual for most of the courses in the area, more dirt than sand in the traps. Don't understand why.

great short course

Played Ironwood for the first time and was very impressed. The course was in great shape with very good greens. The bunkers, fairways and tee boxes were all very good. We managed to get out on the course early and had the place to ourselves. This is a great course for couples or for someone who does not to be punished all day long but its no pushover either.
I will return for sure. Its a bit of a little gem!
