02What golfers say

The word on the course.

How golfers talk about it, summarized from public reviews. Their opinions, not our scoring.

A traditional parkland layout that golfers note is a rarity in desert-dominated north Scottsdale, with mature tree-lined fairways and little elevation change. A fair, fun, well-conditioned member’s club rather than a punishing target test.

Best forForgiving

Consistently praised

  • Bent-grass greens rated among the best in the state.
  • The traditional, tree-lined character stands out from typical Scottsdale layouts.

Worth knowing

  • Not overly challenging, so big hitters may want more teeth; low-profile and rarely played, so first-hand discussion is thin.

Golfers recommend

  • It plays in front of you with little elevation, favoring steady ball-strikers.
  • Play it for the throwback parkland feel rather than desert scenery.
