Greens in poor shape

Greens are in poor condition. Pitted and spotty. Don’t expect a good roll on any of them. Pace of play was good but don’t know how long it will be until the greens come back. Too much money for the conditions of the course.

Still beat up

Other than some new concrete cart paths on parts of the back nine this is the same old Fred Enke course. Fairways are thin at best, tee boxes humped, lots of rocks and hard pan dirt everywhere. And greens were ok but on the verge of looking really thin and beat. They’re charging too much to play there.

Getting back in shape!

Still got a few par 4s cart path only and one par 5 closed. However they’re working hard and fairways and greens are coming back nice. A pleasure to hit off the grass again.

Heads up!!

No course alert on Golf Now! There was one hole closed, one par five reduced to a par three, and a lot of work going on. Appreciate the fact there working hard to get some holes back in shape. Overall pretty good conditions on the rest of the course. We always enjoy playing there but would expect more honesty on the website about course conditions and maybe a little lower pricing?

Loved it!

Great price for an afternoon round in Florida. Pace of play was excellent. Staff was super friendly. Greens had been aerated recently but still rolled well.

Windy but FUN!

The aerated greens have come back and were rolling nicely. In another week they'll be back to near perfect condition. Course is starting to dry out in places which is to be expected in the Arizona desert! Really windy day as the course is quite exposed but makes for some challenges. Pace of play was right at 4 hours.

Great Shape, Nice and Green!

Greens were excellent and fairways and rough were lush. Nice conditions heading into the long hot summer. Overall pace of play was fine. Its a tough golf course and play can slow down quickly. Great value for the money if you can handle the heat in the PM.

Good Conditions Nice and Green!

Course is in great shape, and greens are really solid. Pace of play was a little slow. Looks like they bumped their tee times down from 10 minutes to 7 minutes between starts? Only draw back was service on pro shop. There were 2 folks behind the cash register but only one was working. Had to wait almost 10 minutes to check in when there was only one customer buying shirts in front of me. They couldn't figure out how to work the local discounts. They should they one person dedicated to check in during busy periods.

Scruffy layout

Greens ok and carts are new. Not much grass in the fairways. Lots of bare lies and water abounds. Definitely a locals course where every one had a ball retriever and was fishing for balls.

Worth the Drive

Even with frost delay the starter was extremely efficient in getting tee times back on schedule. A little far out of town but the course is in good condition and fun to play. A little under four hours on a Saturday for the round. The front side greens had just been top dressed with sand but still putted well.

Great layout, fun to play

Staff was extremely friendly and nice practice area. Fairways are nice and wide so plenty of room for wayward the shots. Did not loose a ball. Plenty of variety with the holes and a little bit of water to keep it intersting . Will definitely go again

FRIENDLY LAYOUT

After all the rain we had it was in decent shape. Fairways are in good condition but greens were a little long and shaggy. Good value for the money. They try to keep things moving but a lot of their clientele are older retirees who move slowly. Round was 4 and half hours. Thats too long for a course less than 6000 yards.

Tight fairways and lots of water

Overall very challenging course layout. Several blind shots across marshes/lakes. greens were good and fairways were in excellent shape. Cart paths a little rough and there is a lack of distance markers. Bring a laser range finder or GPS.

I hate paying good money to play on recently aerated greens

It's a nice course but the front nine had not recovered from aeration and the back 9 was a little better. putts wandered all over on the way to the hole. I don't like the fact that they did not advertise the aeration on the web site.

Great Design and Variety of Holes

A tough layout that is demanding to play. Lots of tee box options to suit your game. Big bunkers and big greens. Just getting it on the green is not a par guarantee. Also there is water meandering throughout the course adding even more challenges.

Phenomenal Conditions

Best greens and fairways I've seen in the south west. Very well maintained and greens were fast and firm. Pace of play was great and course layout was interesting. Got a great GOLFNOW rate on a superior course. It is exposed and a little windy outside Las Vegas but still a short ride from the strip.

Phenomenal Conditions

Best greens we've played on in a long time. Fairways are awesome and there are multiple tees to choose from. It is harder than it looks. It was very windy and cool for us but I can't wait to go back again. Clubhouse fod was great and the prices were extremely reasonable. PLAY IT!

Overpriced and slow pace of play

Course has not matured since overseed. Greens were patchy and had recently been sanded. Pace of play was also an issue. There were three twosomes out on a Saturday morning holding up foursomes. Needs another week or two to mature. Has potential but $81 was to much money for a mediocre set up.

Nice challenge with good course conditions.

Greens were excellent and overall course conditions are great. Took us a while to play through a very slow foursome but after that we moved right along. The price included lunch and the food was excellent but the wait staff was a one person show. Overall great value for the money.
