The course itself was in great condition with the greens running fast and fairways beautifully manicured. I am a single handicapper and found this course challenging but manageable but my wife who is... More

Booked on Golf Now and managed to get a reasonable rate. Played combination of Desert/Canyon and the greens on both nines were in good condition but some of the tees were quite patchy and required attention. Typical resort course which winds around the hotel complex with the Desert course having a few quirky holes with magnificent views. Not too many... More

This is a beautiful well kept golf course that straddles up the mountain. Some tight holes but it player friendly.

Nice golf courses for non-pro level players. Open but interesting since numerous holes climb Camelback mountain. Courses are extremely well-kept. If you stay out of the traps you are always hitting off of a soft carpet of grass. Love to play there.

An established Troon desert facility tucked into Camelback foothills, with greens in good shape, vibrant flowers, incredible views and pleasant service. We played this course on a busy day but the pace moved along without delay. Practice putting greens and range. 3 nines for 27 holes.
