Eagle Mountain Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Designed by Scott Miller, this course is located in the southeastern foothills of the McDowell Mountains and is an innovative departure from the “target” style courses constructed in the desert in the recent past. Its layout takes advantage of a variety of land features: rolling hills, ridgelines, lush valley and washes, with a backdrop of prominent mountain outcroppings. In many instances, long extended views into untouched desert landscapes and area landmarks, such as Camelback Mountain, will be afforded. It is a strategic design, which asks the player to make choices relative to skill level.

Great day at Eagle Mountain! Photo submitted by uOQDZ5699OQ on 09/26/2012
Great features
Best bang for your buck. We played on a weekend and they kept a great pace. Will go back again
Thanks so much for the great review, hope to see you again soon.
Best conditions I’ve seen it! Lots of improvements!
I had played this course twice last spring and enjoyed it! First time in April, very nice condition! Second time late may they were struggling!
I played yesterday morning and wow!! So much nicer both in conditions and playability! I see that there has been significant investments in turf and how the course plays!
I suggest you get out and play it before they go into overseed!!!
Thank you so much for the great review. We are so very fortunate that that we had all the rains in September to flush the soils and get us back to normal.
Bombs Away
I had been wanting to play this course for years but never got around to it. Unfortunately the rain closed the back 9, but the place was still fantastic. I look forward to coming back when it’s dry to see just how many 350 yard downhill bombs I can launch.
Thank you for your review. Sorry about the rain but hope to see you again soon.
Great Round
Worth enduring the heat for a great summer round. Course was in perfect condition. Greens were in great shape.
Thank you for taking the time to give us a great review. Hope to see you again soon.
Thank you for the great review. Hope to see you again soon.
Greens are terrible
The greens are worse than some bad public courses at muni level. They charge you $2 for water fee. For that I expected cold water bottles but all they have is water tanks on the course that are warm or empty. Lot of nerve charging for water on a hot/humid day. The greens are in rough shape. The price of $20-$30 less than paid would have been fairer for the condition of those greens. I enjoyed the course layout. Fees were silly.
Thank you for the review. The water fee that you mention is not for drinking water but instead a fee to offset the high costs of potable water for the course. Due to the high cost of potable water we are forced to use reclaimed water and this fee gives is the ability to blend the poor quality water with good clean water.
Thanks for the rating and hope to see you again soon...
Worst greens in AZ
the greens were on the worst condition i have ever seen in AZ in 30 yrs. looks like a fungus attacked. also working on bunkers on front nine with areas roped off and equipment everywhere. not a good value - i would wait another year until Troon can turn this property around
Thank you very much for your feedback. We want you to know that our agronomic team is working tirelessly to get the golf course back to the exceptional conditions Eagle Mountain Golf Club is known for. The greens are recovering quickly and should be back to normal by the end of July. The bunker renovation you mentioned will be completed by the end of July as well and will dramatically enhance the overall experience. Thank you again for your feedback.
Greens need work
The course conditions where ok for the money. The worst part was the greens. Also they’re doing lots of bunker work.
Thanks for the great rating. We are glad you enjoyed your day with us and hope to see you again soon.

not a good value - the greens were in the worst shape of any course i’ve ever played in AZ in 30 yrs. also had bunker work in progress with areas roped off and closed. I would not recommend this course until Troon has at least a year to turn it back around
Playable challenging mountain course
They are reworking the bunkers and some of the fairways - so conditions not ideal now but it did not detract from enjoying a great round.
Thanks for the great rating. We are glad you enjoyed your day with us and hope to see you again soon.
Upside
This is always a fun course, and the condition of the greens didn’t change that. I saw many reviews as to how bad of shape the greens were in and had to see for myself. Are they in good shape? No, they aren’t, but I attribute that to attempting to manipulate the winter grass in to living longer. This year was a tough transition for golf courses. The tees, fairways, and areas around the greens were more than solid so I have no complaints. Most folks leaving poor reviews couldn’t 2-putt from 45 feet regardless of the condition of the greens. I’d recommend this course to anyone who enjoys a good, solid challenge as it is a second shot golf course.
Thank you so much for your review. We value your feedback and hope to see you again soon.
Bad Greens!!!
The course was generally in good shape EXCEPT for the bad greens!!!
tee to green the course was in very good condition and I could live with the numerous bunkers under repair but the front nine greens were terrible and the back nine, while they were somewhat better they still need attention. not sure if a fungus got em or what.
Thank you very much for your feedback. We want you to know that our agronomic team is working tirelessly to get the golf course back to the exceptional conditions Eagle Mountain Golf Club is known for. The issues experienced are short term and we are seeing improvements in the conditions each and every day as we transition from the winter ryegrass to the strong warmer season Bermuda turf. We also
embarked upon a course enhancement program in May that will include a bunker renovation and other turf/agronomic cultural practices that will enhance the agronomic concerns you raised and enhance playability in many other ways. Again what you experienced is not the norm and we are excited about the future as well as the current results we are seeing from the new agronomic practices already being implemented to enhance/elevate conditions. Should you have additional questions/concerns please reach out to info@eaglemtn.com so we can learn more about your experience. Thank you again for your feedback.
Greens
The greens were horrible. I understand a few greens in the summer may be dried out but 15 of the 18? Unacceptable for the price

Poor Course Mgmt
GREAT COURSE LAYOUT. So many burned out areas in fairways they couldn’t mark as “ Ground Under Repair “. Greens so Burned Out we had to invoke “Max 2 Putts” LUMPY & BUMPY

Yikes
Played June 2021. Don’t PLAY even if they give you a free round.
Find a new greens keeper ASAP. This is by far the worst greens I’ve ever played. Such a beautiful course ruined by un-puttable greens. The staff has sorts of excuses why their so bad. STOP, no more excuses. It never rains in Phx, turn on the water like the other courses do.

Terrible greens
The last time I played here was 2 years ago and it was in good shape. Now it was terrible and I would not recommend this course to anybody.
