Course under maintenance

I was wanting to get in a quick round to knock the dust off my game. The course doesn't offer many hazards so you stay out of trouble. It is a shorter course which leads to lower scores. All of the greens were recently aerated and covered with sand so they were very unpredictable.

Great conditions.

1st time playing here and can't wait to play here again. It is a shorter course but they make up for it with bunkers etc. to keep it challenging. We did a bit of waiting on others but on a beautiful Saturday afternoon we knew it would be busy. the two of us still finished in <4hours.

Not sure if it is in a retirement community. The staff wasn't overly friendly outside of the marshal who we saw often. Can't complain though.

1st time playing here.

Very nice course. A bit challenging with narrow fairways and bunkers around the greens. Staff was great. Nice views and great staff but overall a bit disappointed comparing Papago compared to other courses.

Great conditions.

The course was a pleasant surprise. It is in very good shape for this time of the year.

It is a great practice course. Wide fairways with little sand or water it isn't the most difficult but a great course to work on your game.

When it says 6 of each the 6 par 3's are a little misleading as they typically long Par 3's so they aren't really preparing you for other courses unless you hit of the closer tee's.

No coolers on the carts is a downside when you are playing in 115 degrees. $1 Rolling Rocks helped though.

Course needs some care

The course is full of weeds. Any balls between the fairways and the greens will just die in the weeds. The fairways and greens are in decent shapes while the tee boxes are pretty beaten up.

Did a fair amount of waiting for other groups but not horrible. Coolers on the carts would have also been nice.

A questionable value since I played Arizona Grand the day before for the same price. Not worth the $$$ in my opinion. There are better courses for the same price.

Couldn't grab a beer or food after our round since they closed at 6:00pm

Beautiful resort with resort prices.

The course has a lot of elevation changes which are fun and challenging. The back 9 has a lot of target golf with small greens to hit to add to the challenge. My second time playing the course the first time we never finished because of the slow pace of play. We did some waiting to finish in 4 1/2 hours.

The cart girl came around wasn't very friendly. Paid $9 for an awful turkey wrap and $6 bucks a beer so it is higher than most places we play.

First, thanks for the review. We're glad you enjoyed the elevation changes as that is really something that sets us apart from most courses in the area. We apologize if pace wasn't exactly where you had hope'd it would be the first time, but are thrilled that you returned for another round - You're only a few visits away from becoming a regular!

Beautiful Course.

We decided to play an hour before our tee time and got a great rate.

The course is in immaculate shape. Huge sand traps everywhere to make you think. My wife got a hole in one on #4 which of course made this course even more special.

We decided to stick around and get some food afterwards. They seemed to be short staffed and when the food came out the wings were burnt, dry and inedible. They were nice enough to remove them from the bill no questions asked.

Course is in great shape

The course was in excellent shape. The greens were fast but consistent. The rough is rough. Lost a few balls just by missing the fairway by a yard or two.

Course is in great shape

Given the weather the course is in great shape. We have played here before and really enjoy the course.

We had a couple of singles who played on top of us which was annoying but no real complaints.

Nothing Special but good.

The course had wide fairways and was mostly straight. It did have a lot of bunkers to provide a challenge as well as big but difficult greens.

The course was well maintained but after playing other courses I think there are better courses for the money out there.

All that being said I would still recommend the course.

Played on 5/10

The staff was great. The greens were extremely dry and fast. Several of them looked like they had a fungus or something.

We still had a positive experience and will play here again.
