Very Disappointing

The entire experience was disappointing. When we got to the course, the parking lot was closed, so we had to find our way to a garage. I carried my clubs to the drop off area. The attendant did not help me in any way at all. He was not friendly and seemed to be there because he had to be. I checked in and they know I had a rider with me. They charged $25 for the rider, which was not outrageous, other than the course was anything but busy. They did not have a range to warm up on. I drove over to the starter and he let me off early. I followed a 4 some, which quite frankly I did not mind. There was no one behind me until I reached the 17th hole. So much for being busy. The ranger was really friendly and together with the starter, the only people with whom I had a positive interaction. When I finished the round, I brought back the cart and a fellow cleaned my clubs an took them to the drop off rack. From there I had to carry my clubs to my car. They could have let me take the cart to my car, which would have made it easier for me, I cannot blame the course for the weather, but it was cold and somewhat windy. They consider themselves a resort course, but it is not. I have played much better for the price.

Had a Good Time

I was a single who was put together with two young men. It was my first round since last October and I had a good time, although I probably should have quit after 9 or not had a beer on the turn. We had an incident as the foursome in front of us accused us of hitting into them, which was not true. Not sure what brought this on, but the ranger came around and we told him our side of the story. We finished our round, without incident.

Great Day on the Links

The course was in excellent shape. The greens were a bit slow, but they rolled true. The rest of the course was in excellent shape.

The Wind Blew

The course is in good condition other than the traps. They really need to fix this issue as it makes the round more difficult than necessary. When there is no sand or very little sand, hard to decide how to play the shot. The person who did pin placements today had a very interesting sense of humour. Some of the pin placements were actually not fair. Some putts you could never make unless you were within a foot from the flag. Oh well!! We still had a good time, considering the gale force winds.

First Round this Year

The course is in great shape. The greens ran true and not many ball marks. We played in just over 4 hours.

Pleasant not Outstanding

This course in not very scenic although it does have some good things about it. The fairways were in very good shape and the greens were pretty fast and true. We played in 4 hours, although at the turn, 2:10, we were told that we were 15 minutes behind. Not sure where the starter got his info from. This upset us a bit.
The course wanders around a lot, the signage is good, so you will not get lost. We crossed at least 4 streets during our round. This course is OK, but I will not rush back. There are a lot of courses at the price point which are much better visually than this one.

Great Time

This course is in great shape. The fairways were perfect, the greens true and fast. I was added to a threesome and had a great time with my playing partners. Only downside was the wind started to pick up quite a bit at times, but this is not something the course can control. I would play this course again, without question.

Scenic but tough

I made the mistake of playing the white tees although silver tees were only a few hundred yards shorter. The greens are mostly elevated which adds yardage to the game. For some reason the ball was not flying like normal today when the wind was calm. The layout is really scenic. the last 5 holes have great views. I would play again, but I would move forward. No need to punish yourself playing the wrong tees.

Somewhat Disappointed

I played this course a couple of years ago and it was in really fine shape. This year the fairways are playable, but not as lush as in the past. The bunkers need to be redone. Lots of pebbles and stone in the bunkers. They were also inconsistent.
The views around the course are great. There are a couple of holes with elevated tees, which also makes for great views. The greens have a lot of undulation and were fast today. Tough to keep the ball on the green at times. We played in 3:30, which was great pace of play.

Great time overall

We enjoyed our round although we did have a couple of issues. The first 5 holes were played in an hour and then things slowed down quite a bit. On one hole, there were 4 groups on the same hole. The first group was having a really good time, beer, and they slowed things down. The other problem was the condition of the greens. Pretty good although they did not compare with the course we played a couple of days ago, so we were somewhat disappointed.

Great Time

We had a very good time today. The front nine played in 2:10 but the back slowed quite a bit. Not sure why this happened, but we did finish in 4:30.

Not that great

The course is overrated. The pace of play was horrible. A foursome cut in ahead of us and slowed everything down. There is no course marshall, so no one to talk to. No beverage cart and no where to get water on the course. Very disappointing based on what I had read earlier. The bunkers need sand.

Great Course

We had a great time during our round. We were paired up with a nice couple from Canada. The front nine was played in 2 hours, but the back nine was very slow. We had to wait on virtually every hole on the back for some reason. This is the first time we have encountered this problem in all the times playing here.

GREAT TIME

I arrived at the course and thought my tee time was 30 minutes later. Wrong. The starters helped sort things out so that I could hit some balls on the range, then start my round. I was put together with two other singles. We jelled really well and had a great time together.

I really like this course. It was in great shape for January.

Had a great time

The course is in great shape considering they over seeded and are getting the course in shape for the winter. The greens run true and fast. We had a great time.

Beautiful course

The course is situated around the mountains in Phoenix and a number of holes take total advantage of the location. A couple of the par threes have elevated tees with elevations of approximately 150 feet. The course is an excellent challenge for higher handicap players like me. Had a great time.
