Wigwam Resort - Red Course
About
The Red Course (formerly known as Heritage Course) at the Wigwam Resort, which has received acclaim from Golf Magazine, is one of three 18-hole courses at the resort. Built on rolling terrain, the course features elevation changes that can affect shots. Mature trees are also scattered throughout to add beauty and another challenging element. Winding creeks form water hazards that come into play on a few holes. The Red Course is popular among locals familiar with the Wigwam Resort because it is considered to have the three best finishing holes in the area. Although walking is allowed on the other two courses, carts are required on the Red Course.

Enjoyable coarse. Pretty wide open and excellent for novice golfers.
Meh, turf, greens, amenities have declined.
I’ve played all three Wigwam courses (Gold, Blue, Red) multiple times. Perhaps this time of year gets too busy and they can’t keep up, but the course and amenities are not well manicured anymore and for the price, I’d play other courses instead (like Verrado Founders or Victory courses) in this area.
The fairways were ok, I mean they are of course better than $60 courses, but I’ve played Verrado and Blackstone Countey Club for the same prices and Wigwam is two steps down. The greens are three steps down. All greens on all 3 of their courses have bald spots galore.
The bathroom had standing water flooded through feom a rain storm days earlier, but no excuses not to have pushed that water out the door.
The ball washers were broken on some holes.
Now, the practice facilities are great because they have multiple greens for short chipping by the driving range, and then they have two other greens for large chipping by the club house, which is awesome (not even blackstone and Verrado offer longer chipping ranges) and their driving range is nice.
How the course plays.. the Blue and Gold courses have lots of elevated greens so that can be challenging for many players, the speed of the greens is very slow every time I’ve played, and the greens do not break much at all despite their curves and humps. In fact, the only time you may see significant break on the ball, is if the green sits next to water. So you need to know the ball will break towards the water on that hole. I sank about a 60 foot putt and it was straight the entire time despite having to go over a few little bends and curves.
Some of their mini canals that run through the course have only small puddles of standing water in them. Perhaps that’s a seasonal thing, but it looks a little ugly. I seen a few small groups of fish trying to live out their last days in the little bit of standing water left. It was odd.
I used to love wigwam, played it weekly, but now I’ve switched and started playing Verrado Founders course more instead. I’d recommend the same. At least until the attention to detail improves on the turf, greens and amenities.
Oh and PS, hands down, Wigwam had the best chicken nacho you will ever have. Must try.
They also have USB ports in their golf carts, so I commend them on that. The workers have always been polite and respectful.
To me, I’d only play these courses anymore if I got a “deal” on the golf pass app, it’s not worth the $100+ anymore
Must play course
I play the Wigwam courses every time I come to phoenix and I am alway impressed. From the pro shop staff, starter, beverage cart and the golf courses 5 Star
Fairly Forgiving Course
Actually got teamed up with a couple guys I golfed with a couple years ago. Small world. The Red course is pretty wide open. Recovery shots are fairly easy. Lots of space between trees. Greens were very quick. Extremely windy the day I played. The last par 5 was a bit challenging. It was hard to figure out where to aim, even on the second shot.. I ended up with a dbl bogey. They could probably use something a little better than painted bricks for tee markers, that looked a little cheesy, but it's worth a play
Fair to Average course and conditions. Delay in tee time by over an hour resulted in us barely finishing before dark, with no adjustment in green fees.
Closing holes are gimmicky. Course is in average condition. Value for money wasn't great.
Too pricey for the condition
I like playing rhe Red course at the Wigwam. The greens were rolling nice. The fairways were a little shoddy and not what you would expect for the price they are charging right now. Golf prices in general have gotten way out of hand in the Valley.
Great course
First time playing Wigwam. Course was in great shape and our threesome finished in under 4 hours. Will definitely be back.
Always a favorite when I am in the area
Wigwam is a top shelf golf experience from staff, to course layout and condition. My favorite is the Red course…maybe be cause I love the challenge always seem to play well.. Gold is a monster of a course with length and challenge, but I feel plays shorter than the yardage. Not played Blue much due to short yardages.
Nice course and good value with Hot Deal
Course was in great shape but tee times were all backed up because of frost delay in morning. Not the fault of the Wigwam. They did a good job of trying to get groups out as quick as they could. Will play again.
