Challenging Layout

There aren't many easy holes here. I lost my concentration a couple of times and both times it resulted in a triple bogey. Lots of elevation changes, too. I'll be back.

Cart Path Only Equals 5:20 Round

The course was nice, but pretty crowded. Add in the fact that it was cart path only and it took our foursome over 5 hours to play. That's unacceptable. The gentleman checking me in was sort of cold, but the rangers and cart girls were all pleasant. I would never play here again under a cart path only scenario. Gets kind of old lugging 2-3 clubs and my rangefinder across the fairway for every shot.

Rename it Sky Harbor Country Club

Disappointed in this place. Endless planes, a disgusting power plant belching smoke ... there are so many nicer courses that will give you a true Arizona experience. Hated all the moguls (thanks Pete Dye) which are better for skiiing. Old golf cart with a big hole in the side and no soil/seed mix to replace divots. Cut the bermuda rough, too -- it was hard to find balls hit just off the fairway. I'll never return. Phil Mickelson played here, whoopty doo.

Beautiful Layout

A great test of golf in a wonderful setting. Tees and fairways were immaculate. A few greens needed attention, but no major complaints. Challenging from the white tees, but still manageable in length. An hour's drive for me, but definitely worth it.

Stunning Views

Really enjoyed my day at this first-class facility. Everyone -- from the starter to the cart girl to the folks loading and unloading your clubs -- was extremely friendly and thanked me for coming out. The course is absolutely beautiful with a great variety of holes. Beautiful homes to look at on every hole. Playable for folks of all skill levels. The only negative was the greens were very, very slow because of the overseeding.

Nice Layout and Tough

I play this course 2-3 times a year. It's a nice layout with a good variety of holes, but the conditioning has taken a step back in the last year or so. The bunkers are in rough shape. What happened to the sand? They are primarily hard ground/mud. The tee boxes are also a bit scruffy in places. They don't give you range balls when using golfnow like most other courses do.

Could condition and fun to play

With family living off one of the holes, I usually play Westchester on my trips to Florida. It's always in superb condition and fun to play. Generous fairways and a nice collection of water holes. It's challenging without being impossible and the pace of play was surprisingly fast. Very good range, too.

Really enjoyed the course. Everyone was friendly and it was challenging without being unfair. The views were spectacular. A bit of a drive from Scottsdale, but worth it.
