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.

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.

Not quite the same as three years ago

It’s been 2-3 years since I have played the course. And I loved this course. This time however it wasn’t the same. It’s a little shoddier, the fairways were good, the greens needed a bit of care. The areas surrounding the fairways was overgrown and trashy. It just seemed overall to not be as well cared for as it once was.

Zero Stars

For the price they are charging this course is easily one of the worst courses in the valley this winter. The layout is wonderful if the greenskeeper could figure out how to grow and properly maintain grass. This course needs to be bought and some money siphoned into it. Green are the equivalent of putting on a cow pasture, the tee boxes are all completely un-trimmed and far from flat. This course needs someone who cares because clearly that is what’s missing.

The Greens

The greens were in poor shape, with plenty of bounces of the ball as it rolled.
