The golf course at Red Mountain Ranch & Country Club is a beautifully designed layout set against a desert landscape with rock formations, mesquite trees, and cacti. Pete and Perry Dye designed the course, combining both beauty and challenge. This championship course was built on rolling terrain and has large, sharply contoured greens and extensive mounding that is reinforced with railroad ties. There are not only deep sand bunkers but also grass bunkers protecting the greens. There are also four ponds on the course at Red Mountain Ranch & Country Club, but only three create water hazards that come into play on four holes. A notable hole on the course in which water comes into play is the sixth, a hole that has a peninsula green with water surrounding it along three sides.

First time playing.

This was my first time playing this course. The Pro shop guy was helpful and informative. He gave me a course book since it was my first time there. I played from the blue tees (don't judge me) and had a good time. A twosome went out in front of me and they were playing slow, but they waved me through by the second hole to which I was extremely happy. The front 9 is flatter and easier than the back 9. The course book gives you a good idea of where to go to stay out of trouble. I could see why this was a private course for so long. It is right in the middle of a very nice upscale neighborhood. It has tennis, golf, swimming pools and a restaurant. I did not get to partake in any of the other amenities besides the golf. If I lived in the area I could see becoming a member. The wind made the course a bit more difficult, but not outrageous. This course designer likes deep pot bunker and high ridges. He also favors having mogul type hills throughout the course. If I had known about the pot bunkers I probably would have brought my 60* wedge. The greens are a bit odd. They did not roll very well. (IMO) The cart guy told me that they are about to go into transition so that might have been why. Fairways were mostly good although there were a few thin areas. The 17th green seemed a bit gimmicky to me. It is raised steeply like an Island in the sky and from the fairway it is hard to see the surface. One other thing of note: The carts are fairly slow. At first I was wondering why. But, after I saw that some of the cart paths are buckled and uneven, I understood. You don't want to hit one of these unaware and at speed.

Nice course

Was our first time playing this course , the greens and fairways are in good summer condition. The cart paths are in rough shape and the overall maintenance of the course needs improvement. The staff we encountered was excellent.

Employees double booking tee times

Showed up for early tee time. Was told we were second out the gate at 5:55 am after a single member tee time. Starter was not on top of it and let another 4 some on box without confirming they were the correct one. Starter then went after them to find out their employee buddy had doubled booked them into our slot since ours “was just a Golf Now booking”. Starter let them play because they said they would do a scramble. After the 2nd hole they switch to stroke play. Pace got all jacked up on front. Golf Pro kicked them off after 9 but the damage was done.

The course is in great condition for summer. The greens are aerated about a month ago and are rolling true.

It's summertime in PHX, so can't expect too much with regard to course conditions. The greens were too fuzzy as they had been punched about a week ago, but I enjoyed the course still. Played as a single and played two balls, didn't see another golfer until 18. They had plenty of water stations which was nice. I would say the course has some deferred maintenance that needs to be completed, but i would go back for sure.

Won't be back, no water in cooler or beverage cart on a hot day. Also, they had just punched but it was not mentioned on the website or when booking.

Horrible place of play

7:30 t time , hot day, however as per the course Ranger several group of members playing slowly, asked if he advised them to pick up the pace of play with the back up, no response. t one point 4 groups on the 10th tee, 4:40 minutes to play 18 with a 7:30 time unacceptable. Will not be playing here anytime soon. So disappointed, it is a great track.
