Very pleased with our round. Conditions were excellent, nice staff. We’ll go back
McDowell Mountain Golf Club
Played On 05/14/2023Disappointed
We’ve golfed this course several times and this was our worst experience. Arrived early to have lunch before our round only to find out the restaurant was closed for the day. On Mothers Day. We had a 1:30ish tee time and at hole four the beverage cart person informed us it would be last call, she was going home and the clubhouse bar would be closed. When we asked why she informed us that they had staffing issues. Despite that we made it through the front nine in good time. When we started the back nine, there were four groups stacked up on hole 10. The pace ground to a halt on every hole. After hole fourteen we couldn’t take it any more. It was over 100. As we were driving back to the clubhouse we found the problem. There was a threesome on hole 16 and 17 and 18 were wide open. Never saw a ranger once. What a bummer. This used to be a go to for us. Not anymore.
Ahwatukee Country Club
Played On 04/21/2023Worn Out
Course conditions were terrible. Greens were sad. Dead spots everywhere in the fairways. Cart paths will rattle your teeth out. Feel bad for the staff that has to be the face of this. Needs a major facelift.
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve and are working diligently to improve the course. Thank you for playing and we hope to see you again soon.
Kokopelli Golf Course
Played On 08/01/2021Course Needs TLC
Really bad conditions. Bare spots all over the course that with the latest rains are mud holes. It’s gone way downhill from a couple of years ago. I won’t be back until it gets a facelift.
Branson Hills Golf Club
Played On 05/14/2021Worth a Look
Beautiful course. Definitely worth a try. The pace was a little slow but with an afternoon tee time we expected as much.
Mountain Brook Golf Club
Played On 03/14/2021Great round
My wife and I had a great round. Course was in good shape and we got the round in under four hours. We’ll be back.
The Phoenician Golf Club
Played On 08/30/2020Great Round
Course was in super shape. The greens were the best of any course we've been to in the last six weeks. We were out early and made it around in three hours. We'll be back.
Bear Creek Golf Complex - Bear Course
Played On 06/14/2020So So for the Area
The course was in fair shape, especially the fairways. Greens were good. Pace was fine. Just kind of a straightforward course for the area. Spendy for the time of year and conditions. We’d go back but not our first choice.
Eagle Mountain Golf Club
Played On 05/25/2020Nice Round
Course was in great shape. Pace was a little slow but it was a holiday. My shoelace broke right as we were going out and even though they didn’t sell laces, the course manager pulled his out of his shoes for me. We’d recommend to anyone and we’ll be back.
Scottsdale Silverado Golf Club
Played On 05/23/2020A little disappointing
We’ve played Silverado before and really enjoyed it. This time not so much. The Bermuda wasn’t grown in, was cut short and so the fairways were bald. Coupled with an early tee time and we played in mud for most of the round. The rates aren’t too bad but for my money I wouldn’t go back for a few weeks until they get the course in better shape. Played with two other golfers who play Silverado frequently and they commented it was not up to par as well. The staff was great.
Dobson Ranch Golf Course
Played On 04/12/2020Nice Course
We enjoyed our round. Nice pace and in good condition. We walked and it was very walkable.
Scottsdale Silverado Golf Club
Played On 01/26/2020Enjoyed Our Round
First time playing Silverado. We enjoyed our round. Good pace, paired with a great twosome. Course was in very good shape and was fun. Not too long or too difficult but enjoyable. Staff was very friendly. We’ll be back.
Arizona Biltmore Golf Club - Estates Course
Played On 02/15/2019Enjoyable Round
My wife and I had a very enjoyable round. Pace was under 4 hrs., set up wasn’t very challenging but we expected that. The course was in good shape even with all the rain the previous day. The views and the homes surrounding are impressive. Finished it off with a great sandwich at the Adobe Grill.
Laughlin Ranch Golf Club
Played On 12/26/2018Worth the Trip
We were on our way to Vegas and decided to make a pit stop and play a round. Glad we did. Great course in great shape and the staff was very friendly and helpful. It’s challenging but fair with an interesting layout. It was very windy when we played but it didn’t affect our scores as we adjusted our club selection as the starter suggested. We’d stop again.
Palm at McCormick Ranch Golf Club
Played On 10/26/2018Not McCormick’s Best Showing
I normally like this course a lot but today wasn’t the best experience. Pace of play was brutal (5 1/2 hours) with no attempt by the course to move things along. Waiting on nearly every shot. The staff was less than friendly as well. They seemed put out that we didn’t choose the Pine Course and burdened them with accommodating us on the Palm. Beer cart was out of half of what they normally carry and we only saw them once the entire round. Everyone knows that fall over seeding is a little chaotic but the course can do a better job of being prepared.
Red Mountain Ranch Country Club
Played On 09/28/2018Good Value
The course was under preparation for over seeding for the winter so the fairways, etc were cut very short with a lot of mulch and it hadn’t been watered . The greens were fine. It’s a nice course and the green fees matched the condition. I’ll be back when it reopens.
Championship at Viewpoint Golf Resort
Played On 05/20/2017Nothing Special
Our playing partner put it best when he said there's nothing memorable about Viewpoint. The course was in fair condition. Staff was indifferent. Pace of play was ok and it was cheap but there are better options in the area.
Toka Sticks Golf Club
Played On 02/08/2017Great Roind
The course was in excellent shape and the pace of play was very good. I went early so that helped I'm sure. My playing partners were regulars and had a lot of knowledge of the course and were fun guys. The only thing I'd suggest is to provide a course layout in the cart or on the card. If I would've went without someone who knew the course I could have gotten into trouble in a couple of the holes. Great value. I'll be back
Ahwatukee Country Club
Played On 01/31/2017Go early, Great Value
I enjoyed my round quite a bit. The fairways and greens were in decent shape and the layout was somewhat challenging. Previous reviews about poor conditions hit the mark in other areas of the course but for the money you can't beat it. Hopefully the course will spend some money to improve these areas. My only caution would be that pace of play may slow down quite a bit later in the day. I was the first person out but experienced several groups (assume local members) just showing up on holes and cutting in front of me. They'd play the hole at a snails pace and then move on to another random hole. I'm sure the course values these folks but a little control by a ranger would be appreciated as I could see this impacting play as the day goes on.
Hi "VTB" We appreciate you making us aware of the situation. We will definitely take a closer look into this. We appreciate the great feedback and hope to see you again in the near future.
Legend at Arrowhead, The
Played On 10/15/2016Bad, bad experience.
Complete stinker of a round. Checked in to find that a high school tournament was starting less than an hour in front of our tee time and the staff couldn't have cared less that we had no prior warning of this when booking and were facing a 5+ hour round (it would have been 6+ if darkness hadn't mercifully ended our day). Several groups that were supposed to tee off in front of us gave up and left. We expected it to be slow due to cart path only conditions but not that slow. Had the typical drunk in the foursome in front of us that didn't get the cart path only message - where was the ranger? The course was in terrible shape - most greens were unputtable due to overgrowth and damage from geese and lack of attention. The fairway bunkers hadn't seen any maintenance in who knows how long. The only positives were the beverage cart and restaurant staffers. Very friendly and accommodating. The rest of the staff needs to go to charm school. Have played here before and had a better experience but will not be going back any time soon. Much better options around Phoenix.
Hello VTBTCB,
Thank you for the review and feedback. Please accept our apologies for the poor experience. I do believe it is an exception to the norm and hope you will join us again in the near future.
