The course is in great shape with greens very receptive to the approach shots you hit. I've been playing here for 12 years and it has never been better.

Most of the traps have been redone with new sand. The staff is continuing its overhaul of the entire course.

Definitely worth the trip to play and enjoy.

Condition

The course was very over grown. Food and drink trash on all holes. Hole 16 had a pole of dirt in the middle of the green. No beverage cart services on either of the 9 holes. Plus side the greens were maintained nicely.

Ok. Prices are high for the value

For the price they are charging now, it’s ok. No water jugs, no bev cart and average course conditions. I was hoping my return back would be better.

Bad conditions

This course used to be beautiful! It is really run down. Greens are good but rest is in need of a lot of work. Can’t believe they have let is slide this much.

Great Layout, Poor Conditions

I haven't played Del Lago in a few years, but always remembered it as a very good layout that was always in very good condition. While still a great layout, other than the greens (which were in excellent condition!), the course conditions were quite poor. Fairways were pretty much dried up and didn't have any green grass, and the bunkers were borderline unplayable - hard and full of stones. For the price charged, it was not worth making the drive all the way out to Vail. They need to put some money into maintenance before I'll come back.

Manicured!

Been playing here almost every Sunday, and now once during the week. For the last six months been very well maintained, staff if always accommodating, beverage cart seen at least three times per round, couldn’t ask for much more!

one of our favorites

We come to AZ each spring from the Upper Midwest -- for a month. Discovered this course last year. It is now one of our favorites. There are many tee boxes, and combos also -- so that there is a yardage suitable for everyone to enjoy the course. Scenery is wonderful also. Only negative: it's pretty far from where we usually stay.

Great Layout, Really Firm Greens

I was very impressed with the layout of this course, with a great variety of hole shapes and distances. It was my first time around but fortunately played with folks with course knowledge. I debated about the course condition score and my 3 star rating is mostly because of how firm the greens were. It was very difficult to hold the green on many of the holes, especially when downwind. A few greens are open to the ground game but many are wonderfully protected by imaginative bunkering or water. Unfortunately, these greens were hard to hold (I do not get as much spin on the ball as I did when I was younger). There were also some rough spots around the course and the sand in the bunkers was very inconsistent but that really doesn't bother me as much. The greens looked great and rolled well and some of the pin positions were challenging. So, many fun factors to this course. By the way, as others have mentioned, the fairways and especially the "rough" is also very firm so either hit straight tee shots or take less club to allow for all of the bounce and roll.

Beautiful day on the course

My game has been really off for awhile. I shot a terrible round but this course was fair and in great shape. I enjoyed my experience. Had my regular game been back I am sure I would have scored very well. The tee boxes have nice grass. What a concept. The greens rolled true. The fairways were immaculate and if you missed you still had a decent shot for the most part. The only improvements are the traps. They are pretty hard. Thought my sand wedge was gonna fold in half. Very nice facilities and staff. Check the weather. I hear it's very challenging in the wind.
