Nice older course.

Course was a little slower in the afternoon. My wife and i did a nine and dine (happy hour), and it was very good.Good pours for the wine, and food was good too. Definitely would recommend for others for a leisure round.

Pleasantly Surprized

A friend booked this course for three of us to play. They added a woman to our group from WA. Two of us are also from WA. None of us had ever played the track. All of us thought it was great. They were short staffed in the restaurant which wasn’t good, so we waited on ourselves from outside. Outdoor seating was lots of fun and artfully designed too. Go play this place!!!

Fair Price and a Fun Layout

It’s a tight course, but is very short and relatively forgiving. It’s a great option for novice golfers or experienced golfers who don’t want to break the bank. Fairways and greens were in good shape. Everything was clean and orderly. Would definitely play here again.

First time at shadow mountain

Let me start by saying the starter was great in helping us with course guidance.His personality was top notch.
The pro shop attendant was also nice she was patient
with customers ready to play.The course itself is short
but challenges you with narrow fairways.Water is also
in play on a few holes.The course is well kept with
nice greens that will challenge your putting abilities.
We will definitely be back when visiting the desert again.
