Tres Rios Golf Course

First time in Phoenix area during winter and I was looking for a good warm-up course, to get the rust out.

The overseeding hasn't come in on the fairways, so it's a little thin/brown if you don't hit the green areas. Nice yardage choices from 6,846yd / 71.4/121 down to 5,297yd/68.5/112 on this Links's design Par 35/36 layout. The yardage markers were "Hit and Miss" on each hole, so bring own GPS of choice. Each green had sand traps on either side, but hard pan replaced the sand. Greens were firm and heavily sanded, but rolled surprisingly well. We only had time to play the front 9, so we chose the tips at 3,292yds and tried to hit the scattered green areas.

Good practice course if you haven't played in a while for the $22.00 9/cart or $29 for 18/cart. Ended up shooting 40 w/15 putts on this cloudy 65-degree day and No Snow.

Pro shop and concessions staff were very friendly. Play was just after overseeding. Fairways were good considering. Not much trouble outside the fairways except trees. Greens were good for early in the season. Length is good and layout is very good. Should be nice when grass grows in. Good special rates available. Worth playing if you are in the area.

Tres Rios Golf Course is a flat and wide desert layout. Mountains in the background, no houses on the course. A nice course, not a great course. If you live in the area, might be your regular course, but not a destination course.

PLAY THIS ONE ON A SPECIAL RATE. NOT REALLY WORTH THE FULL RATE

Nice course with friendly staff. Bit of a drive but worth it. Use the internet specials as there increase the value substantially.
