Painted Mountain Golf Club

Not a single person out there but us, super friendly staff and well kept course.

I hadn't played this course in several weeks. I looked at the reviews and I don't know what course they were playing but it wasn't this one. The tee boxes are fair at best, most are very unlevel. There were several holes with temporary tees. The fairways have a lot of areas without grass or are patchy. The greens were slow and soft, but good. This is a $30 course not a $50 course.

Greens are excellent, fairways are typical summer issues...

I know it’s summer, but the fairways were almost non-existent. Half brown/dirt & half crab grass. $60 is a descent price but there are courses that charge the same or less in way better condition this time of year. Would not play here again without seeing the fairways. Plus the beverage cart service was bad. I’m a good tipper & the service was rough - made it difficult to want to keep buying from her. Also, they don’t serve hard alcohol so don’t expect to get a mixed drink here. I don’t like giving bad reviews but holy cow, they need to work on a few things.

staff is great. course is in transition but summer in az is expected. greens are still playable so thats what counts

I’ve played here several times and I don’t expect much from this course. But right now it’s bad even by Painted Mountain standards. Patchy fairways and tee boxes, sparse areas of grass with lots of dirt and some muddy areas. They were punching greens today and had no warnings when booking. So I had to skip several holes to get ahead of the crew. Maybe they didn’t expect anyone that far on the course yet, but most of the back 9 had the sprinklers on either in the fairways or around the greens, so I either had to skip the tee shot and drop in the fairway past the sprinklers or play up to my approach shot and pick up. Last 4 holes had no cups or flags, they were pulled out and laying beside the green. Staff has always been nice enough, though you should play early because the pace does get out of hand later in the day. Starter offered to let me go through again, but honestly I preferred to just head home. I will say the greens that weren't punched yet were slow but rolled really nicely.

The course was completely unplayable and even the pro shop suggested we not play as both fairways and greens were being plugged and aerated. GolfNow gave no warning online when I booked the tee time. However, the pro shop was extremely friendly and gave us a 45-day rain check to come back and play at any time. My playing partner and I thought that was extremely generous of them.
Now we can even play at any time and don't even have to worry about a hot deal.

Greens very fast and in tough shape… lots of burnout and brown on the fairways… fun track otherwise… fair course for a differ like myself- and the price point was solid… disappointed that the restaurant/bar was closed

This course starts at the club house and doesn’t return until the end. They don’t allow outside beverages but also didn’t have a cart girl until the 15th hole , don’t provide ice, and no food or beverage on course. Course layout is odd. Most of the tee boxes were moved up for reseed

Hot weather. You get a lot of roll in the fairways. Greens are excellent especially for this time of year. Played 18 holes in 2.5 hours. Could have been quicker if I had a few less strokes. 3 of the par threes were having repairs to the tee boxes and were shortened. That made for some fun short shots into the greens.
