Don’t Bother

Close it down and start over. Even with overseeding and cart path only the conditions were bad. Tee boxes dug up, weeds growing in the rough, cart paths with potholes everywhere and greens with bare spots are examples of what awaits you. It might be cheap and that’s what you get

Rude staff reason for not returning

Used to come here and hit balls all the time. Lost my ball slip for the range and the employee was rude in assisting me for my mistake mind you I’ve gone to this place over 100 times for the range. Will be going to cave creek even though it’s not as close from here on out. Shout out to their golf pro Gordy though he is awesome!

Good course for the beginner or high handicap golfer

Course did fall over-seeding and is cart path only. The greens and tee boxes are in good shape. The cart path and on-course restrooms are in need of repair. It was nice to have water in the ball washers. Overall, it's a decent executive course for the beginner golfer or the high handicapper. So far, the price is reasonable for what you get.

Course is terrible, staff is even worse

Most of the staff here are unnecessary rude and it really makes a course that isnt great to begin with even worse.

In particular, rhe women that works the kitchen is extremely rude and confrontational. Usually gives excuses to not cook you food and gets argumentative when you ask a question.

Poor shape

This is an older course that hasn’t had any maintenance done on it in a long time. If you want something super cheap, this is the course to go to. However, you get what you are paying for.

Convenient for us

Just was easy for our situation. Not much grass or watering on the course. Shaggy greens and very hard ground on the course. Just go into your round understanding what you are playing. Enjoy the day!

Paradise valley golf

I don't think this is a fair review for this course because they were getting ready to reseed and hadn't watered the course so the fairways and greens were hard and fast the greens needed mowing and were very rough
I will try to play this course again sometime when they are not transitioning from one season to another. I think in the middle of a season the course should be a fun one to play.

Poor

Rude inside staff, and some of the worst course conditions I’ve ever seen. Would only recommend this course if you’re new to the game and are looking for a cheap course.

Great value

Looks like they’re getting ready to re seed so course was pretty dry. But great value for 18 holes!
