Hard as a rock

We had played the course a few times and this time it was like playing on concrete. The greens had very little grass and were as hard as a rock. For a public Phoenix course it was not in very good condition.

Speed of Play

There was a young foursome in front with no golf sense and there was no course marshal to speed them up. They were playing best ball and were two holes behind those in front. Took 20 minutes to play the last hole. Created huge backup.

Typically a nice little course to play.

Fun quick course

Great course with challenging greens. Not a lot of yard but the greens make up for the lack of distance to provide a good challenge. No sand traps. Course played in under 1.5 hr

Good conditions, decent layout

First time playing here and it’s a nice short course. Tee boxes, fairways, and greens were in good condition. The rough was definitely not in top shape, but overall it was worth the cheap price!

Great Municipal course

This is a fairly easy 9-hole, great for beginners or people not looking for high challenge. The water only plays a factor on one hole and it's only if you are too far to right. Not a lot of sand and the rough isn't too rough. Good pace and the course is well cared for.
