Superstition Springs Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
The East Valley's Superstition Springs Golf Club offers one of Arizona's most testing layouts, measuring over 7,000 yards, with a slope rating of 130. Golf course architect Greg H. Nash designed the course and worked with the landscape already in place to provide the abundant mounding, wide bunkers and good-looking but tough-playing water features.
By the time he had finished with the Superstition Springs Golf Club, Nash had created a golf course that Golfweek called one of America's Best Golf Courses.
After - or before - a round of golf at the Superstition Springs Golf Club, hit up the restaurant for breakfast, lunch or drinks either inside or on the patio, which overlooks the golf course's signature hole, the ninth.

Disappointed
Very slow round. Quit after 9 holes and 3+ hours
Terrible value even if pace of play was normal
9 holes and breakfast
Great deal to play 9 holes and have breakfast after for $56. Course condition was just average, but the layout is excellent, pace of play was good and the staff were great. Definitely recommend for the value received.
We're glad to hear that you enjoyed our 9-hole special and breakfast deal. Your comments about the course condition have been noted, and we appreciate your recommendation based on the value you received.
Pace of play terrible - 6+ hour to finish 18 holes.
Too many golfers
The pace of play was terribly slow due to too many golfers on the course. We had hole where there were three foursomes all waiting to tee or on the same hole.
We appreciate your detailed review and will share this with the team to improve the areas impacting guest experience like Pace of Play. Thank you for your feedback! We hope to welcome you back to an improved experience.
Great Staff, Quirky Course, pace of play awful
We loved the staff, all great
Pace of play was awful. 5 hour round. We waited in every hole

Conditions
The sand traps are horrible. No sand in them. Either add sand or sod them over the sand. Pace of play was very slow. It would have been a 5 hour round but we quit after#16
The staff is terrific
The layout is fun

We appreciate your wonderful feedback. Thank you for joining us and we hope to welcome you back soon!
Decent value
Course was in decent condition...much better that in previous years. The front nine is difficult...bordering on unfair at times. Be prepared. The 5600 yards tees played fairly long. If you don't hit it 250 plus off the tees, do not play the 6700 yard version. The back nine was more fun and a lot less work. All on all, it was a good day...4.5 hours, as we were behind a slower group.
Murrgc, we appreciate you visiting and following up with such detailed feedback. Feedback like yours is crucial to the improvement of areas impacting guest experience. Have a wonderful day and we hope to see you the next time you're in town!
Good Value
For the price we paid, the course exceeded our expectations. Fairways and greens are in very good shape as of right now, however come bad lies in certain spots off the fairway and some poorly maintained greenside bunkers. There are also some flaws in the course layout, and can see how it could get backed up. For us it was a standard 4 1/2 hours which was good for a Sunday afternoon. We didn’t see the beer cart on the back 9 and the coolers were all empty. Overall, we had a good experience and would return again.
Thank you for your feedback! We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed your round of golf and experience with us. We hope to see you soon.
a long day
very slow but then again it was a Sunday. had to relax and enjoy the company and weather

Watch your booking!
Played this course a few days ago as we were passing through town. Had an early tee time so we could have the afternoon to lounge around before continuing on our road trip the next morning. Totally my fault, and I didn’t realize until the staff at the bag drop said it, but I’d purchased a tee time that was the back nine only. They were so busy they could not accommodate my group with the other nine holes. Where we live there is never an option for only nine holes, and yes the price I had paid was less, but I had chalked that up to having such an early tee time…. So just use caution when getting your tee time online. Turns out my nine hole purchase came with breakfast and it was delicious!! Figured it would be a pastry or something to carry onto the course, but it was served to us in the grill after our round and we were able to choose any menu item we wanted. We ate and then hit the driving range for some practice. All in all my tee time purchase mistake wasn’t that big a deal for us. The course was in good shape and we had fun. The greens were great, but be warned that they are really narrow, so accuracy is important when approaching them. Would definitely play here again.
Michelle, thank you for your detailed review of your recent experience at our course. We apologize for the confusion with your tee time purchase, but we're glad to hear that it you were able to enjoy your day! We're pleased that you enjoyed the breakfast and had a fun round of golf. We hope to see you again soon!
Good Course
Good course, slow play due to slow group in front of us. Course should have had Ranger to inform group ahead they were a hole behind so we could finish before dark.
Thank you for joining us! The team appreciates feedback like yours and utilizes it to constantly improve the guest experience at Superstition Springs. Thank you for sharing! We hope to see you again soon.
