Dependable Joy

Even at 105 degrees this course is always a dependable enjoyable round. During our summers, its one of the few times that I really love the constant windy conditions----sometimes gentle sometimes more but you always have something to work with. Greens and fairways were greener then most for July unless your playing CC courses all the time. Good starter, good staff, good rate and cart came around often enough.

The course is fantastic!

I would highly recommend playing here — the course is in great shape, just challenging enough without being overly difficult, and the practice amenities are wonderful.

Great course!

Highly manicured overall with very nice “green” greens… not burnt like many others in the area. People very friendly… we were a 5-some with some new golfers and let 4 groups play through we were the slowest group in the course so pace was great. We enjoyed it, great course…. Great job Star ranch crew!

Greens slow due to recent maintenance, overall in good shape, awesome pace of play

Greens were really slow which Ranch is not known for which sucked but it was due to recent maintenance last week. I assume they should be back to fast pace in a few weeks. Rest of the course in good shape as always.

Pace of play was amazing, 4some finished in a little over 3 hours and the course was busy. Ranch always does a good job at keeping the pace moving and staying at or under 4 hours, wish other courses would do this.

Well kept, relatively easier course

Star Ranch is a great course with large fairways, well placed bunkers, a great layout and a few signature holes.

Horrible pace of play

Horrible pace of play, no marshals on the course monitoring it. This course used to have good pace and you would usually finish in 4 hours on a busy day but the last 2 times i've played here has gone downhill. Feel like Star Ranch is trying to take the title away from Teravista as the home of slow play.
