Very well kept, fun, challenging course, price isn't to bad for golf either. Very scenic views and 19th hole is affordable and the staff is absolutely fabulous, Rizz, or awesome, depending on your generation. Play a round here you won't regret it.
This was an absolutely blast of a course to play! Such wonderful natural beauty, great value in the Phoenix area, and really fun course design. Will def be playing here every time we come to town.
The 500 Club Golf Course is an amazing course and one of the best values in the Phoenix area. The course is always in great shape, and every time I come back it feels like there’s been another small upgrade or improvement—clearly a place that takes pride in continuous improvement. The layout is fun and fair, conditions are consistently solid, and it’s just an enjoyable round from start to finish. The bar and food are excellent, and the service staff—including the cart girls—are always friendly, upbeat, and attentive, which really adds to the overall experience. Whether you’re a local or visiting, this is a course I’d absolutely recommend. Great golf, great service, and great value. ⛳
For snowbird season, the price for the money is hard to beat. I thought the course was in really good shape. The tees and fairways were divot free. The greens were interesting. I'm no grass expert but the grass seemed different. Very short and hard. Holding a shot was almost impossible. The sand traps were iffy as well. Very little sand in most of them. While it looks like a desert course, the desert was mostly free of bushes and cacti. The pace of play was OK for a Friday afternoon. We played the front in 2 hours and the back in 2 1/2 hours. We never saw a ranger. The practice area was heavily used and pretty chewed up but okay.
This is for the Futures course which is part of the The 500 club but is its own Par 3, 9-hole course. The course is short, with the opening hole being the only par -4. The greens roll very nice regardless of their appearance- they are light on the grass side and the coloration shows that. They are rolled what seems like everyday to keep them true. Lots of undulating in the greens makes birdies hard to come by. I would say the greens are moderately receptive. The fairways have a tight cut of the grass and have 100% coverage which is nice. The holes are like a nice municipal course. The ground is hard so tee shots can roll a long way, and the tee boxes are in average condition and somewhat level, with several being difficult to push a tee into. The club dpes great to support youths and ladies groups. You can play the course in about 90 minutes, without pushing the pace and posting a reasonable score.
