Always a pleasure at Firecliff

Having played the two Desert Willow courses many times over the years, I highly recommend them. Challenging, fair layouts with wide fairways but precision needed to reach and hold the greens. Thoughtful tee box options allow mixed skill levels to play together.

Conditioning is always good despite many player rounds. Choose your tee time wisely to avoid slow play and it is a pity you can't walk these courses.

Escena reboot

Course is in nice shape after reseed. Greens slow as expected but reasonably consistent. Nice layout; I haven’t played here for years so good to see it in very playable condition

A reliable quality course

The South course is fun to play with good visuals, mostly strong holes and nice greens. Near the end of the summer cycle so the course is getting ready for overseeding, but still in good shape. Course amenities are minimal due to the limited traffic, but the staff is great - not their fault.

Wonderful track

Managed to get an almost windless round of golf, which takes some of the teeth out of the course, but it is such a pleasure to play here, windy or not. Played the tips which make you work for it. The ball sits up beautifully in the fairway and the layout and visuals are excellent.

Highly recommended.

Always challenging but fair

Second time playing this course from the tips. Every hole is visually daunting or stunning, depending on your point of view and the state of your game. As with most Dye courses, there is a decent sized fairway to hit, but he makes you think about all the negative places you musn't go. The par 3's are all long, strong and fun from the tips.

A great track that keeps you focussed and rewards good shots.

fun course

Great course and in good condition. Moved briskly for the first 9 holes then came to a standstill. Stopped at the range after the round and was berated by a staff member for doing so as I got to my car.

Great track, but...

A very nice layout and in good shape generally. Wonderful to play in low wind conditions, but novelty golf once the wind blows heavily, which is often. The windmills that suround it might be your first clue. Choose you weather window and it is a great golf course at a good price.
