Slooow

Course was in great condition. Nice day warm and sunshine. Pace of play was a crawl, Marshall said there was a slow group 2 or 3 groups ahead of us. The womans club had several groups ahead of us as well and they didn't help matters either. We had to wait on every shot. I get it the course has to be careful not upset people or they won't come back. Slow play ruined our day, I shot 39 on the front and struggled to a 49 on the back because we were waiting and couldn't concentrate. I look forward to playing Las Sendas every year when we come to Arizona. What we paid I expect a better experience. Very disappointed.

Slow

Over 5 1/2 hr. round, waited on every shot. Typical for this course. Course Marshall was nowhere to be found on the course. If you find one on the course the standard answer is the everyone is on time.When we returned the cart he was yapping with the cart guy.
Tuff to find a tee time in this area so take what you can get, but this was no fun.

Water

Lots of water along greens, fairways and tee boxes. The aeration of the greens was recovering but they were soaked! By far one of the best courses we played. There’s three holes from the forward tees that require using something that goes 150 yards or less which leaves a long shot over a hazard.

Fair track

The fairways are good size in landing areas with not too much trouble. Long distance from green to tee. They said we played to the bay, but it wasn’t that close. Our cart died at 15th hole. Had to call for a new one which was brought right away. Overall, I would try the other 2 courses before playing this one again. Middle of aeration season and the greens hadn’t come out of it yet

Nice course

The aeration of the greens wasn’t complete so they were shaggy, uneven and didn’t roll great. Overall the course was in good condition. Tighter fairways but good design overall

Good Public Course

Finding a tee time on this course is tough. The price plus course layout is great for walking and some challenge. Tee boxes were slim on the overseeding, and some greens had issues. Overall it is in good condition.

Six some !!!!!!!!!

We had lunch before the round in the restaurant, not sure how you get a greasy quesadilla. As we sat there we could watch groups tee off the first hole. Three carts with six people it was obvious they knew each other. A couple of guys tee off, then some commotion, a girl tees off and then more guys. Off they all go! We finish lunch and say something in the pro shop; reply was it's not allowed. Get to the cart, no keys, but found one in a drink holder that wouldn't fit. The worker said key is broke off in the lock? What a pig of a cart,. Brakes wouldn't set or keep it stopped on a hill and pedal to the floor waiting for it to go.
The round was slow, but on hole 7 standing on the tee at a par 3; waiting of course. Next whole here's the six some blaring music, laughing, drinking and driving to each person's ball as a group.
Called the proshop on 8 since we were standing in the fairways with two groups ahead of us. Of course the six some is on the green! 9th hole the Marshall comes to the tee box and explains they're faster as a six some than if he split them up?!?!?
As much as we can figure, our tee time was more than half hour after they teed off. So did groups quit, jump around them, or what? However, the Marshall assured us they were keeping up with the group in front of them. That's BS!
Proshop, Marshall and staff fall far below poor. Got a hole in one on 14 and didn't want to go in the proshop to deal with them! Can't hear more lies/BS from those guys!
The course is challenging and in good shape. Range balls come with the round. Range is super busy.
I still can't recommend the course because of poor course management

The best part of the round was the twosome we were paired with. The group in front of us started 2 holes behind from the first tee. Ugh!
Course is in great shape; fast greens.

Need a greenskeeper or something

We have played this course over the last 12 years, but what a surprise on how poor the course is being maintained. Understand this has always been dirt off the fairway, but it is so much worse. Only sand in traps are on the practice green and 18. The rest of the bunkers were hard packed dirt.
They soaked it in the morning so there were muddy puddles, deep tracks and dying trees. Not sure if its a water issue or just bad course maintenanxe. Starter said tbey are running 250 or more players through a day.
I can't recommend this to any one

Not worth the $

Play was slow. They sent a single off alone in front of us. Then at the turn they sent a twosome between us and the single. I don't know if they were supposed to join the single but were not good golfers they would wait on the tee for the hole clear before they would hit then play multiple balls. The marshal had no response why the twosome were sent out in front of us on the back nine. He did nothing about there slow play. We waited on each hole to hit, front and back.

Snack shack woes

We always enjoy playing this course. Views are good and layout is fun for target golf. You definitely want to be in the fairways.
The snack shack at the turn took 15 to 20 minutes for the foursome to get beers, 1 hotdog and 3 breakfast burritos!? The group behind us was considerate, but that's ridiculous
The manager needs to figure this out. Everything needed to be microwaved one item at a time. Either get a hotdog roller and warmer or do a call in service

Course good, starter grumpy

The course was behind despite starting on time. Accordibg to the grumpy starter, frost in the early tee times caused delay due to cart path only. We started about 30 minutes after tee time, but course moved well after the first nine.

We always like playing this course on our annual trip.
