Great course but one very cranky worker!

This is a great course in great condition. Sadly however, no one told us that you shouldn’t go across the underpass before you are called to do so. We were 4 minutes to our tee time, so we crossed over to be ready to go on time. All of a sudden a man came roaring over in his golf cart, all encased in a plastic cover, and he literally yelled at us for coming across before being called, telling us how we screwed everything up! There were people just about to tee off in front of us, who were also yelled at by this man, who didn’t even have the decency to get out of his cart to speak to anyone or to find out our side of the issue. He then just roared off, mumbling to himself. No one at the clubhouse said anything about these rules, so we had no way of knowing! It was a little shocking. That person shouldn’t be in this business.

It is December…..

But, compared to the other Sun City courses, the North this time was a little dry compared to last year at this time. We will be back, but we’ll give it a little rest to see if it improves.

Expensive for the conditions

Shot-gun start? That was odd. Some greens were in bad shape. Large golf ball sized hole in one of them, and I mean an actual hole,. 1-2 inches deep. Approach to the greens were rough. It’s expensive for what you get.

Great course as usual, but those greens and pin placements that all seemed to be on the very top of every mound, were killer! Lol.

This course is in great shape!

This is the third time we’ve played this course this season, and we will definitely Italy play it again. The fairways are beautifully green and cut well, the rough is typical Arizona rough with brown grass, but it’s not left so I long that you can’t find your balls, and
the greens are great. The pace was great, as there weren’t many golfers this time of year, ie, one week before Christmas and the weather was cool. It was perfect for walking the course, which is what we love to do.

Pretty nice course for a par 3

The only thing that bothered me, was that it seemed the fairways were actually painted green! If the ball got wet, the green dye would stick to the ball or your fingers. I’m not sure what that is all about, but it was definitely odd. The greens were in pretty good shape, although a bit slow. Otherwise, it was a fun course.

Not worth the price

My husband and I played there yesterday, Dec 1st, 2022. For the price of the rounds here, i expected a lot better conditions. There was one hole where there were 4 obvious replaced pin sod pockets, either raised well above the green, or dropped below the level of the green. We had to move our ball to putt.

There is so much dirt and gravel around the course it’s very dusty, and the tee boxes are not even close to being level.

There’s are so many other courses in the area that you can play for far less than they charge at this course. It may have been a gem at one time, but it’s clear it has gone downhill significantly.

Terrible pace of play

Ok, we did have a late tee time for this time of year, ie 2:00 pm. However, we expected to be able to get in 18 holes by sundown, had the pace of play been reasonable. Sadly however, there were 2 groups of 5 ahead of us, several of whom were of the very senior category, and barely able to move. While I am always happy to see seniors out golfing as long as they can, I question the courses decision to allow people who can barely get in and out of the carts, or walk to the green, to play with 4 more people who are not much more “able.” We played as a foursome with another couple we had never met, two of us were walking, and we waited for 10 minutes or more, on every hole. And I am probably being generous with that calculation. I don’t understand the need to allow 5 players at a time. It merely keeps people from wanting to play there in the future, so that one extra green fee they got with the group of five, may very well be detrimental to the long term success of the course. I will admit, I have played in a group of five in the past, and we hustled to ensure we never held anyone up. But we are in shape, walk very fast and don’t spend time visiting and pondering every shot out there. No one has ever had to wait for us. Had we been told that there were two groups of 5 seniors ahead of us, we could have made an informed decision as to whether we played that day or not. As it was, we quit at 15, as the group of 5 had dropped to 2 on hole 10, and we were still waiting a long time on every hole.

Great course

The greens were in great shape, as were the fairways. It was easy to lose your back in the right however as the brown grass was some sort of tangly grass so the ball could get buried easily. So stick to the track! Lol. We golfed Thanksgiving day, but due to the lack of people golfing that day, we were unable to get a” beverage “ between the front and Back. Understandable however, as Pete were with their families that day. Great course though

Love this course!

What a beautiful track! Some really challenging fairways sheet is you don't know what's ahead, you'd better hop have a look! We really enjoyed the round and even though the overall distance is less than what we usually play, it was simply a matter of stepping back to the next tee box. We will play again.

Great course!

The course is a little shorter than we usually play, but we just moved back a couple of tee boxes and it was great! The fairways were in great shape and white the greens weren't super green, they still played well. This course has enough challenges for just about anybody, yet is easily playable. We really enjoyed our round there. Tomorrow we'll try the Lakes!

Challenging

This course was fun and the fairways and greens were in great shape. However, almost all the ball washers were either missing completely or broken, there weren’t any benches on the course to rest on for a brief moment while walking the course, and not one in our group of 4 individual players received a receipt from the pro shop, so we had no washroom codes to use the facilities in the course. The course could be a real gem and perhaps it was at one time, but for the prices they charge, they need to really up their maintenance and amenities.

Love Riverview! It’s in pretty good shape for mid April after all the snowbirds have played the heck out of it. Lol. I’m a snowbird as well, so I am not speaking out of town. That’s why so many of us come here.

Nice enough course, but pricey

We enjoyed our round here, but if you compare it to the other courses in Sun City, it’s not worth the higher price. It was no nicer than Riverview, Willowcreek, or Sun city North etc. I’m not sure why it is that any course that has Country Club attached to its name has higher prices.

Love the layout

Have played this course several times, and really enjoy the layout and how it plays for everyone’s abilities. It is too bad that there is such a drought in AZ, as some more watering would certainly make it even better. The tee boxes on most hours are like cement. Lol. Can’t get the tree in without a hammer. But overall, really enjoyed it.

Great course but slow because of 5-somes

This is the only complaint I have. The course allowed two groups of 5 to play ahead of us as a two-some. Needless to say, we waited constantly, which really affects the rhythm of your game. Luckily, they left after 9 holes, but you might want to ask before you play.

I love this course! Lots of narrow driver shots, requiring some accuracy. Although you don’t really get into too much trouble if you are off. Fairways were excellent!
