Located in the West Valley, the championship-length course at the Coldwater Golf Club boasts several different challenges for an interesting round of golf. There are elevated tees as well as several dry washes. There are two lakes providing water hazards on the golf course as well. There are also dramatic elevation changes caused by the mountainous terrain. Aside from the challenging game, the course also offers beautiful mountain vistas. The course has not only one signature course but two. The first is the modest eighth hole. Although it is short at 100 yards, it features an elevated tee and a triple-tiered green. Coldwater Golf Club also finishes with a signature hole. The beginning tee shot plays to an open fairway over water with a dry wash to the left, while the approach shot is closed-in by another wash to the left and a lake to the right.

Good Shape, Great Value

Another great outing at Coldwater. Course was in good condition, grass under your ball if in the fairway and certainly around the greens. Greens in good condition. The people at the pro shop, concessions, everywhere, were friendly. Great value.

Bad shape

Don’t bother playing this course for probably another year. Fairway grass too long trying to cover up dead spots. Greens were horrible due to two kinds of grass growing at two different speeds so you end up with dead spots and inconsistent speeds, save your money this course is not worth it

Very, very, Poor condition

This course is in very ooor condition. The “grass” on the greens should be an embarrassment. The fairway grass would be acceptable (not good) for summer grass. Way overpriced for what you get.

Don’t go there

Please do yourself a favor and don’t go to this course.
The pictures on this site do not represent the course at ALL.
The tee boxes are uneven and have very little grass and the greens are a hit and hope as the ball bounces in every direction except to the hole.
Fairway are 70 percent weeds and grass and the rest is dirt.
Book this course because of the pictures on GolfNow and was thoroughly disappointed

Not in great condition

Fairways were ok, but rough and beyond in very poor condition. Greens were marginal, very bumpy. Tee boxes were in poor condition.

Go somewhere else

Greens are horrible, tee boxes terrible.
greens lost to water/frost/lack of attention?
Greens mostly bare patches and some green fuzz. Tee boxes totally beat up.

Staff ok, pace fine, layout decent, weather good.

Greens are in brutal shape!

Been playing this course for many years. They seem to have finally fixed their tee boxes, but they lost their greens, sadly. Spotty grass, inconsistent speed. Almost like us northerners would liken to winterkill. Pace of play was pretty good, mostly because hardly anyone was on the course! Cart girl was super friendly and we must have seen her about 6 times (again, probably because there was hardly anyone there). We won’t be going back until next year, when hopefully, their greens have come back.

Not worth the time or money

Played Sunday and a few week ago. 3/17/2024
The course was pretty bad . Greens were very spotted dead and very bad. Tee boxes were like someone ran the Baja 500 on them. Plenty of water so there should be no excuse for the condition. Really bad. They have the balls to charge top rated. What a joke

Great course

The course was in excellent shape. I would like to see more attention paid to the tee boxes. Very rough and looks like tees from a couple weeks everywhere.

Rip Off

Absolutely the worst greens I've ever played on. Staff should not only tell you ahead of time the greens are rough, but should also offer a 10-20% discount because they are so bad. $90 for that?!? Putting was a joke. Way too much money for these conditions. Cmon! I won't be back for a long time. Used to be one of my go to courses for the value...no longer.
Also took 5 hours to play! Horrendous! Ranger was ineffective. These other players need to know that the expectation is 4 hours for the round. People were apparently stopping for lunch...cmon who does that? Very disappointing day! You lost my business.

Rough

We played this course in the summer which you would expect not too favorable conditions do to the Arizona sun. I thought we would return to see how things were now and yes, they’ve changed a little bit but still not a course worth $60 for afternoon. Brown areas, hard ground and so many other courses to play and spend. I wont be back.

Staff was super and restaurant smelled fantastic.
