The Arizona Golf Resort is home to a golf school and a challenging 18-hole course. The golf course is known for its difficult and scenic par-3 holes. It is has a traditional layout that features large, subtly sloped greens that are guarded by bunkers. Stately cottonwood and eucalyptus trees line the generous fairways. Lakes form water hazards that come into play on five holes and there is also native rough throughout the course. With four sets of tee boxes, the course offers a suitable challenge for players of all skill levels. In addition to the course and the school, the Arizona Golf Resort has a putting green and chipping area as well.

First time playing the course. Pretty flat course with only a couple of memorable holes. The course was in so so condition. The greens were somewhat shaggy and on the slow side.

So so so bad

I have given this place a chance twice this month now and both times I have been beyond disappointed. I have never had to leave a golf course in the hundreds of times I have played golf and 2/2 I have had to leave this course. Both times we did not have carts ready when we arrived for at least 15 minutes, then did not tee off for an additional 20+ minutes, and oh my god is pace of play slow. We waited minimum 10 minutes per hole on the teebox. This most recent time there appeared to be an error where they were booking tee times every other minute. IT TOOK OVER 3 HOURS FOR THE FRONT NINE. ABSOLUTELY INSANE. Starter couldnt have been less helpful when he could have just sent us off the front twice instead of refusing to with no reasoning because there were no tee times and instead sending us off the back and continuing the torture. Horrible horrible horrible

Not enough Golf carts

Tee time was 2:16 pm
Course did not have enough carts to give out.
Waited until 3:30 pm to tee off.
Course was backed up and was only able to play 12 holes. Paid for 18. 🥵👎

Brutally Slow

Played Feb 19. Had an 11:28 tee time, pro shop said they were on time when we checked in, but we didn't get out until noon. Then we proceeded to wait on every single hole! It was a full 5 hour round. The course apparently had booked 5 groups before us at 1 minute intervals. Said it was a computer error, so not their fault. Stuff like this happens, but own the mistake. Worst pace of play we have ever seen here.

Booked for my brothers birthday. Was very concerned after reading some of the yelp reviews but shouldn’t have read them. Course was in great condition, a life spongey areas from water and rain, but grass was green. Greens played well and offered a good challenge. Group of 4 looks forward to playing again soon.

Only part that isn’t great is that the range is limited to 250 so no driver practice.

Hot deal slow play

Started late due to frost delay. Course was not in good shape with unintentional water hazards in some of the fairways. Greens were slow like just overseeded. Inside staff were rude when checking in but outdoor staff were all friendly. Would not play again even with the hot deal.

What a Mudhole

One of the worst courses I have ever played. I realize the Phoenix area has had quite a bit of rain this year but that has been days ago. This course was like it had dumped 2 inches the night before. Nothing but water and mud holes. The ball never got a chance to roll anywhere. Between wet everwhere and the clumps of grass in the fairways and on the fringes good luck having any kind of a decent round. This course is not a good deal at any price.

Due to early morning frost tee times delayed for an hour. Minor delayed throughout the round but nothing to complain about. The greens were nice and rolled true. Would definitely play here again.

1st time back

1st time back in years. Course is in much better condition. Booked a 4pm tee time. Didnt get a cart till 4pm. Course was over booked and playing slow. Lots of water. Looks like they ran sprinklers diring all of our rain. Overall looks like its turning around to be a good course again. Only got in 9 holes.

AGR, Golf's home of the greatest greens and also GM Wally!

I was very impressed even though it has rained so much the past week! We teed off at 7:28 and it did not feel like we were in AZ, it was freezing! The course was in great shape and requires you to work the ball both ways off the tee box! If you miss a green you better be able to chip because the greens are fairly small. We had a great time and I also wanted to give out a shout to Wally for addressing our needs as he was exceptional with his customer service. Wally is the Man!!!
