amazing course and lay out, greens were in tremendous shape. course is challenging but not in the way you’d expect it to be, tons of bunkers and danger left and right, ensure you keep pace of play. a lot of people will play 18 but play fast and in singles.
I live pretty close to here and decided to just check out the Sunset Grill to grab a bacon cheeseburger. The burger just had some patties, cheese and some bacon. It was very average and did not have any tomatoes, onions or lettuce on it. The fries were fine. So for food the grill gets a 3/5 ; The service was very good. The cashier / waitress Ellie was very friendly and did a good job taking care of my table, so I would give service a 4/5. Ambiance.... The grill has a nice patio when the weather is nice and it looks very well manicured so would warrant a 5/5. Pricing for a burger and coke was about $23.00 which is in line w/ most restaurants these days. If I was super hungry after playing a round and I wanted something right away, the grill is probably fine.
To start off, I originally made a tee time for two individuals well in advance. Three days prior to my scheduled round, I inquired about the possibility of adding a third player to my tee time. I was informed that space was available to accommodate an additional player; however, they could not modify the existing reservation from two to three. Instead, I was required to create a "new reservation," necessitating the submission of all my information once again. Having been an avid golfer for over 40 years, I find it unprecedented to encounter such a policy, as adding or removing a player from a tee time has always been a straightforward process at other courses. Regarding the overall experience, the course design proved to be enjoyable. The tee boxes and fairways were in ok condition, although the teeing areas for the par 3 holes were really beat up . Regrettably, the bunkering left much to be desired, as several bunkers were inadequately maintained. Furthermore, the greens were hard and notably slow, significantly detracting from the putting experience. The most pressing concern throughout the round was the pace of play. We arrived at the 18th green after 4 hours and 50 minutes on the course, despite the presence of a staff and starter, a ranger was never seen or appeared to be assigned to manage the flow of play. While I may consider a return it will not be anytime soon.
This course was GREAT! They told me on the phone that a few holes were cart path only because they were doing repairs. The greens were in fantastic shape. I’m from Central Illinois and this is a super nice course for the price! Ryan and the staff were great and very personable. It was 106* and they made sure I was taken care of! The pro shop had some great merch available as well! When I get back to AZ, I’ll be playing this course again! Thx! Gary ILL-INI
Had a beautiful wedding reception. The terrace provided a beautiful backdrop with the sun setting. There was enough space for a dance floor, buffet, game room in the basement and patio and bar for cocktails. Staff was accommodating and we had a great experience. Fred’s flowers made the space magical.
