Good course

Located in Scottsdale, Silverado is a solid course that is in very good condition in the fairways and greens. The greens are fast and well maintained with virtually no bad sections. Fairways are reasonably wide and generally forgiving. Staff is very friendly and helpful. It’s decent value compared to other courses further away. The course isn’t scenic or overly challenging with most holes fairly straight and some have a slight bend. When busy which was the case for me pace can be a little slow but not overly bad. Teeing off at 2pm my foursome finish in about 4.5 hours on a Thursday when it was fully booked.

Tired & beaten up

Unfortunately this course might have seen better days but most likely years ago. The clubhouse is your standard muni which is serviceable and efficient. The tee boxes are worn while the fairways are in decent shape but the grass is too short. If you get even a foot off the fairways you are playing off of really dormant dead grass, rocks, or sand. The greens are mediocre at best which appears that when the grass is dead or dormant staff spray paints those sections. We paid $31 per person for a 3:15 tee time. It was busy and it took us 3 hours to play 9 holes. It wasn’t worth more than that. My suggestion is to take your money to TopGolf and spend it there versus this course.

Difficult but manageable

This Marriott resort course has a good setup. Practice putting green has undulation that is similar to the course. Practice range is iinclide with enough balls to warm you up. The course itself is in good condition with few dead spots. I found the fairways were fairly tight for a resort course. The other difficulty is the greens which undulate quite a bit. Bring your A game. Staff was very friendly.

Target shots

The fairways are fairly wide but bunkers are located in strategic spots that will probably catch the average players shot. Greens are large but have enough undulation that if your ball lands in the back and the pin is in the middle or front you have a long putt over at least one hill so chip shots onto the green is important to keep your score low. Tee boxes are in average condition while fairways and greens are in better condition. The practice putting green is a good example of overall green character. 18th hole is picture worthy.

Straight straight straight

Located in a gated community this course is about as straightforward as you can get....and that isn’t necessarily a good thing. Every hole seems to be a copy of the previous one starting out with straight straight straight then putt. There are a few holes that water comes into play which makes it moderately more interesting. Course is in good condition with very well maintained tee boxes, fairways, and greens. If you are looking for a challenging unique set of holes then go elsewhere but if you want reasonably easy and fast play then this will do it.

Desert willow firecliff

Excellent condition and on par with Indian Canyons. Greens were a little slow. As the location is further away from the mountains it can get rather windy. But overall would play again. Not much difference from sister course Mountainview

We played the north course of its 36 holes. The course was in very good conditions. The greens were a little slow and hard so balls tended to not stick and slide off. I wouldn’t consider it picturesque but a solid course to play.
