WEll maintained - easy to play
We’ll maintained Easy to play. Friendly staff. Good pace of play
Enjoyable morning
Start time was just shy of 8 am, and we finished in about three and a half hours. Fairways and greens were in excellent shape, although the greens were a little slow. My impression is that this will change in the coming days. Lots of elevation changes. Although the course appears short on the scorecard, you will find that to be deceiving as you will be hitting up hill with your 2nd shot quite a bit. This course was a joy to play and we will definitely be back on our next Scottsdale trip.
Challenging but fair
Great course, scenery amazing. Challenging, back 9 is tougher.
Nice course
Overall a great experience. The course was in good shape and is fun to play. The sand traps are under construction as well as a tee box but still a good time. The greens were slow but in good shape.
Nice course, great staff. We were warned about bunker construction and sanded greens. Greens were really rough, sure they’ll be better soon. I’ll be back!
FUN
Staff throughout was very nice! They are working on some tea boxes and sand trips so there were workers on the course. But still fun place to play I will really enjoy it when these are updated.
Day 7 of KC Guys Trip in AZ
First time any of us has played this course. Loved it, it was the best round of golf I've ever shot even though it was my first time. I'm a very weak player and I shot an 82. Putting for birdies on a lot of the holes. I personally had the best day ever. Dinner next time. I had to get the group to the airport after the round. Thanks guys.
Booking was easy. 2nd attempt failed, but was charged for 3 groups. Hope you guys credit me on the website mistake. Thank you. It was a pleasure.
Enjoyable round of Golf
We had a great time playing at Desert Canyon today despite the course conditions being partially in renovation (some Tee boxes and bunkers). Greens were in good conditions but fairways were still in transition with lawn laking density and consistency at times.
Will play again
Course was having some repairs done to the traps and tee boxes.
Enjoyed the day, but the course was dry and grass sparse in some areas. Greens dry and not as good as they should be. The repairs to the traps lessened the course value. My cart was not very good, I should have changed it after the first nine. Staff and cart fellows were great. I like the course and will return, hopefully to better conditions. Don’t mis read my somewhat negative comments, I enjoyed the day.
