Best Executive Course Around
Really enjoyed the variety of distances and the greens were running true, but very challenging. Love this course!
Desert Trails - First Timer
This is the first time I played Desert Trails and I very much enjoyed it. The pace of play was very good. The course layout was challenging for me and very different from the other executive courses in Sun City West. Course condition was pretty good but there were some wet spots from water runoff and pooling. The greens were slow which is different from other Sun City West courses. They had all of the practice facilities and a well staffed and friendly pro shop. I will definitely play this course again.
Very fun course. But pace of play needs to be better
Very fun and exciting course. But there is a lot of waiting on the groups in front.
Great Executive Course - Greens were amazing!
This course is really great. I played the front 9. 3 Par 4s and 6 Par 3s. The greens were in amazing shape. I walked the course, pace was a little bit slow. Waited on multiple holes even with walking. Fairways in good shape on the Par 4s. Really nice little course. Will definitely be back!
Very Nice
We have added this executive course to our favorites list and will deginitely do it again. The fairways and greens are the best we have played this season. The length of the course is enough to give you full club utilization (7 par 4s). Bunkers are also well maintained and easy to hit from. Really enjoyable walk.
nice and quick to play
course is in excellent shape as are all the SSW courses. Executive course with challenging greens and pin placements. Greens in very good shape but run slow.
The par 4s are long from the blue tees
Very nice for executive course. Best play from blue tees.
This course is fun to play.
I have golfed at this course several times and always
look forward to returning. The staff is very friendly and
everyone I've been paired with is very friendly.
Course is in good condition, greens need attention.
Course is very open for a Exec course. I did not observe any trick holes, what you see is what you play.
Nice views around the course, all the homes are well maintained and you fell a need to keep it clean. This course is not easy to play cart paths only, the cart paths are a good walk from the fairways and greens.
I enjoyed playing this course, but did not feel challenged.
Great Executive course
Greens were in beautiful shape and very challenging. Par 3 fairways were not watered but I suppose that is because you are supposed to hit the greens. Par 4 fairways were beautiful. Even with waiting for a short time on some holes we finished in just over 3 hours. I will definitely return to Desert Trails
