Fun course for a quick round

Executive course, mostly par threes, with a few par fours and one par five. Staff in the pro shop were very friendly and helpful. Golf carts are gas powered, clean and dependable. No GPS. Decent condition on fairways, some bare dirt and long grass off the fairways. Greens were very good and putts rolled true. Cart paths were mostly dirt with many potholes and deep puddles of standing water. Very few golfers on the day we played so pace of play was excellent. Overall a fun course to play.

Great conditions right now

The course was in great shape. The greens are firm and rolling faster, but still a bit slower than optimal. Tough to hold these greens unless you are a super spinner. Beware of the bunkers, there in no sand, just packed dirt. That was the only negative.

Very nice executive course

Great conditions at this executive course. Many short par 3's but challenging greens. Tried to use their app for yardages, but proved frustrating to use. Better to use a rangefinder for yardages.

Always in top condition

The course is always in great shape. No bare spots in the fairways and the greens are fast and smooth. GPS on carts helps with club selection.

Average course. Greens still a bit bumpy. Tees could use more grass.

Very good muni course

Played Nov. 18 in perfect weather conditions and finished in 4 hours. Course was in very good condition although the greens were on the slow side and many approach shots could not hold the greens. Holes are predominately flat and straight. Bunkers have adequate sand. This time of year there are many geese hanging around the lakes making a mess on the tees and fairways. But a nice layout for a muni.

Bring your own sand

Best to play elsewhere. No sand in the bunkers, (Pine Course) but there was a mountain of sand between the greens and tees on the back nine. How about putting some in the bunkers?? Told the course staff and pro shop personnel who did not even care.
Golf carts are antiquated. Corners of seats appeared to be chewed off. Was told they were getting new carts tomorrow. Hotdogs were overpriced. Better to bring your own from Costco. The criminal birds will steal your food from the golf carts.

No waiting on a boring course

Played on Easter mid-morning and finished in 4 hours. No waiting on any of the holes! Fairways/greens are in good shape, but a rather monotonous layout...straight hole after straight hole after straight hole...then you are done.

Comfortable course with great views

Fairly straight forward layout with nice views of the Superstition Mountains. Greens on the small side with subtle breaks (hint: putts break away from mountains).

Hard to find but worth the trip

Difficult to find the course as it's within a meandering residential development. Great practice/warm up facilities. Played as a threesome mid-morning and finished in under 4 hours even after waiting on several holes. Target golf with many holes requiring local knowledge. Best to play the course a couple of times to figure out where to hit tee shots. Several holes border arterial roads and can be distracting. Lots of trouble on the back nine if you're not hitting them straight or get too aggressive, Green speeds were not too fast and rolled smoothly.

Have to commit a full day to play

Course conditions are good, but green have been top dressed and still roll smoothly, but inconsistent speed. Approach shots tend to run out a bit.
Five hours to play!!! Had too wait on many tees and approach shots.

Try the North course for an enjoyable round

Challenging course from the blue tees for most golfers. Nice wide fairways. Greens are pretty hard and approach shots tend to run out quite a bit. Green speeds were not too fast, just right for the conditions. Good combination of holes (only a few par 5's) and an enjoyable course to play.

Very nice course. Excellent pace of play with roaming marshalls to help keep groups on time. Greens are kind of slow but hold approach shots.
