Friendly Executive Course in Decent Condition

An enjoyable executive course to play. Tee boxes, fairways and green are all in good condition coupled with a nice blend of par 3s, 4s and a couple of 5s. A sensible trip around the 18 with with no tricks. Sand traps are fine. The Birdie restaurant has good beer and decent food. The proshop and golf staff are friendly and helpful. Nice practice area especially the putting green. I have played here a few times - a nice break from a full par 72 course. My wife who is a semi- beginner enjoyed the course as well. Overall, a pretty good value.

Good course to get in a quick 9 hole practice round

About the nicest thing I can say about this experience was that the lady in the pro shop was extremely friendly and helpful. The course is the least impressive I’ve played since moving to AZ. I was unaware that it was a short “Executive” layout, which is fine, but the condition and scenery were not great. Nothing horrible here but nothing great either. I would rate this course better if the price were cheaper to more accurately reflect the quality you are paying for. I would cross this off your list if you are looking for a mid to high level of quality golf experience but it’s not a bad option to just get in a quick 9 to practice your short game.

A favorite course with great staff and amenities

FOS is a weekly, or more often, routine. Club house Staff (Jeff) and dining room personnel are great! Although a senior resort, young golfers train here and you can easily establish a long-term foursome
with residents. With snowbird season over it is easy to get tee times and winter league play is a favorite location for many seasonal visitors. Residents are outgoing and welcome you to their resort. Excellent course and amenities!
