The course has been under new management and the condition of the entire course has never been better in the 15 years I have played here. Don't be fooled by the length of the course and some of the holes, there is plenty of challenge. The greens are generally small and on only a few holes can you run a ball onto the green. The greens have a lot of movement and are difficult to read and if you get out of position on some of them, a two-putt is good. The course has a very natural look and there is no development other than the course facilities. It is next to the Phoenix Zoo, where else can you hear a lion roar during a round? Bring your sharpest short game!
Would travel: 0-10 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Average course for the area, Bargain priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
Condition of Course, Difficulty, Layout, Price, Ambiance, No Houses on Course
