Played this course for the first time. The tee box conditions ranged anywhere from poor to pretty good. The fairways were good for the most part. The rough was gnarly and you could easily lose a ball ten feet off the fairway. The greens while in good condition were almost all covered with a thin layer of sand. The course markings are non existent, My GPS sky caddie watch did not recognize the course, which is rare. There are no GPS screens in the cart. Many holes have ravines and forced carries unrecognizable from the tee or fairway. Hence you are constantly loosing ball’s hitting into the unknown. Not a pleasant experience.

We enjoy playing at Frog Hollow whenever we get a chance. The bunkers are in rough shape but we were forewarned as they will soon be re-worked. Some of the tee boxes could also use some work but fair otherwise. We like the l course layout and the staff is always very accommodating. The dollar value is also exceptional. One of our favorite Delaware courses.

My son and I played Frog Hollow Monday morning and breezed through our round in 3 hours 50 minutes.
Beautiful layout that was challenging but fair. The greens were in great shape and consistent with the exception of one on the back nine. We were granted Senior and Junior rates which made our round a real bargain. My only complaint was the bunkers which have sparse course sand with pebbles making it hard to control the ball. Other than that I definitely recommend playing this couse.

I booked a late afternoon tee time hoping to squeeze in 18 at a course I played once before. The staff was exceptionally courteous from the young man helping with the carts to the wonderful woman in the pro shop. Except for a few rough tee boxes the course is in great shape. From the fairways to the fast and true greens . Much improved from when I was last here twelve months ago. I was able to get around the course in 3.5 hours and finished just as the sun was setting. I really enjoyed all the wildlife on the course as well. It was a very pleasant round.

The course was nice but not $120 nice. Excellent practice facilities. Friendly staff, pace of play was on average for a four hour round. Fairways were in decent shape but a little fuzzy. The greens putted very true. The tee boxes were in good shape except for one. It certainly helps to have played the course as some decent shots were negated by unseen water hazards. All in all it was a good day but probably not worth the price.

My son and I had our first golf outing in the Phoenix area. We are both from the east coast and wanted to experience the desert courses. We played a number of courses in the Scottsdale area but The Phoenician was by far the best. The facilities, staff and course are top notch. The home construction adjacent to the various parts of the course can be a little off putting. At the same time that means progress and success for the resort so we were willing to put up with it. The course layout and vistas were spectacular. I would definitely recommend this course to everyone.

The staff were exceptionally friendly and accommodating. The fairways and greens are in excellent shape. We had a great four hour round!

This was my second time playing Bent Tree and my experience was the same as the first time. The starter is very organized and does a good job getting everyone ready to tee off on schedule. From there the play was not excruciatingly slow but could use some help. We appreciate the cart lady was very active and came around multiple times. Some of the tee boxes are in rough shape . Some spots in the fairways are are sparse concerning grass coverage. The traps are fair but at least they are raked and you can play out of them. The greens are all in good shape and the ball rolls true and reasonably fast. I can put up with the deficiencies knowing the greens are good.

The course was okay but unless you like slow fuzzy greens I would pass it by.

Enjoyed my round at Bent Tree. Overall the course Is in good condition with a few rough spots sprinkled in. The course was busy and the pace of play was okay. My round took about four hours and fifteen minutes. The starter was very helpful meeting me in the parking lot and out on the course right away.. The greens are in great shape and I would recommend playing this course.

We have not played this course since fall of 2019. We always enjoy the design of River Marsh although the course quality fluctuates. The greens were aerated three or four weeks ago and provide a less than consistent putting service. One of my pet peeves of some resort courses are the numerous un-repaired ball marks on the greens. I must have repaired 59 myself today. The bunkers have been all but abandoned during this COVID period. The fairways were okay but it is November so understandable. Considering all the rain this area has dealt with over the past 90 days the course is in decent but not stellar condition.

I love the idea of teeing off on a Sunday morning at 6:50am and completing 18 holes by 10:30am. The staff was very helpful in getting us out and on time. The course is in good condition and the greens were fast, undulating and challenging. The fairways were in good shape and the rough was penalizing but not impossible. Just the way the rough should be. Some of the tee boxes and greens were showing signs of stress but not too bad. All in all a very good value for the money.

I made my reservation based on the 4 star rating of this course. It is more like a 1.5 star at best. Some holes are attractive and nicely designed, others are an afterthought and forced into the limited spacing afforded. The tee boxes were in terrible shape, the greens are fuzzier than an alpaca sweater and the rental clubs are terrible. I played with three very nice young gentlemen I was paired with but other than their company the nine holes were a waste of time and money.

The course was in excellent condition. Far better than what I am used to seeing with East Coast public courses. With the exception of green number 11 the greens are perfect. My only complaint regarding the greens is the number of ball marks that were left unrepaired. I must have fixed 50 yesterday . The other suggestion I would make is offering out of town players, like me, some course notes so we are more aware of blind trouble areas. It's not good when what appears to be a perfect shot is negated because of a drastically sloping fairway sending the ball into dense rough.
