Standing water on fairways and every bunker. Numerous areas under repair. Huge divots every shot so wet we ran out of sand. Played in a scramble tourney that was supposed to have multiple tastings on holes and I think there was 3. The tourney prize for first was a head cover like what?!?! Just a money grab. *UPDATED* Jeff below will try to tell you lies to make what occurred seem better to save face. There was only 3 tastings. Two par 3's had empty tables. Prizes were underwhelming at best. A bag tag looks like a child made at elementary school, a free round of golf in these conditions (couldn't pay me to play it again), and one of their own head covers. Utilize your vendors from golf brands. Other courses offering hundreds of dollars, clubs, etc for lesser tournament registration fees. You offer what seems to be after thoughts to be cheap. Every course waters more in the summer so it doesn't get fried but morning tee times see dew. Not standing water and soggy ground with every step. It was the most unprofessional tournaments I have ever seen. Absolute amateur hour. STAY AWAY FROM THIS COURSE!!!!!!

I am a regular at Ocotillo Golf Club, an Arcis Prime member, and consider this my home course…read more Unfortunately, my experience with Kevin at the pro shop today was extremely disappointing. I arrived shortly before the 3:00 p.m. tee time and was placed in the 3:18 p.m. slot, which was completely fine. The problem began when I was charged $29 instead of the advertised Arcis Prime twilight rate of $25, plus the water fee and tax. When I questioned the price, Kevin acknowledged the difference but initially refused to correct it, saying the register and phone app showed different rates. He then told me that if I wanted to "save a few bucks," I should book through the app. The issue was not the small dollar amount. It was the dismissive attitude, the implication that I was being cheap, and the refusal to take responsibility for correcting a pricing error. When I explained that this was about customer service and accurate pricing, Kevin responded that he does not run the facility and does not care about fixing those issues. That is not how a loyal member or any customer should be treated. GM Jeff has always been professional and welcoming, and AJ outside is consistently friendly and helpful. I hope Jeff speaks with Kevin and provides him with appropriate customer-service training. One employee's attitude should not damage the reputation of an otherwise good team. Ocotillo is where I come to relax and enjoy the course. Today's interaction did the opposite and seriously made me reconsider continuing my Arcis Prime membership. I hope management addresses this directly so it does not happen again.

My husband and I booked a tee time at San Marcos Golf Course on Father's Day weekend. We chose an…read more11:00 AM tee time, which was significantly cheaper than the early morning tee times because it's usually in the 100+ degrees by then. We're used to it and we bring lots of cooling towels. The staff was pleasant and helpful. The driving range was limited to irons only during our visit, not sure why. The course was in great shape for the most part and the pace of play was ideal. There was no one in front of us or behind us pretty much the entire time. Food from the restaurant was decent. They provided a small "cooler" which is more like a small lunch bag for the drinks. The golf carts don't have coolers, which isn't a deal breaker, but a bit inconvenient especially since the lunch bag they gave us leaked and there wasn't a good spot for it in the cart. Regardless, we had a nice experience. We played all 18 holes and are excited to play again in the future!

Unlike many of the reviews I've seen, my experience was quite the opposite, in the best way. The course was in excellent condition, with some of the best greens I've ever played on in Arizona. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the pace of play was just right. We were never rushed from behind or held up by the group in front. The beer was cold, the food was hot, and honestly, I have no complaints. It was an amazing time from start to finish.

However after years of decline, and letting the course go. It's only a shell of what it used to be. The layout is great, the service is great, the green are actually great. The ball rolls faster than you think. However, throughout the course. There are a lot of bare areas. The fairways are very spotty. There are a lot of debris around the course. The driving range is mats only, I heard a lot of negative things about the course and I expected a lot worse. There are some bright spots. Overall I still had a great day of golf.

Either courses are fun tracks that challenge you in different ways. The Cattail is a super fun track that has a lot of potential for scoring good. Greens roll really true with good pace and everywhere around them has crisp perfectly manicured grass defining the fringe to apron back to fairways. I wish the bunkers (sand) was more fluff and softer but still very easy to manage out of them. The course conditions were absolutely nice and pretty much as perfect as you would expect for a course of this nature. Cart guys, pro shop staff, starter were all great and super helpful and very informative on anything g you needed or asked. Services throughout were great and the weather was perfect. The pace of play was very nice, never saw the group in front of us or behind us and finished a group 4 in 3 hours 58 minutes from the Golds(one) shy of the tips (black). I definitely want to come back here again rather soon. Great overall experience. It appears the LPGA will be here exactly the following week from today play as they were setting up all over the course. Even with cart path only on all holes, walking out to the ball was not difficult on any of the holes.

We meet weekly in one of their simulator bays, and I can't believe how much Gary has improved my swing and grip in just one class. I've learned so much, and I highly recommend taking lessons with him. Each session runs around 45 minutes to an hour and costs $60, but if you purchase the series, it drops to $250--only $50 per class. Such a steal! Hornacek's has a huge selection of golf gear, from clothes to clubs and bags. They even have an amazing clearance section in the back, which I love checking out after my lessons. I scored a pair of last season's G/FORE shoes for a fraction of the original price. The staff there are always super friendly and ready to help. It's definitely a go-to store for anything golf-related!

We came and the girl at the front was so nice. Talked about how the paintings were inspired by the owners kid. Whatever, what a weird comment, right? Then they give you 3D glasses, and let me tell you YOU REALLY WANT THOSE GLASSES. Of course, the first hole my 6yo starts a royal tantrum. Once again, the girl at the desk gives both my kids glow bracelets. It doesn't calm my daughter down, but it helps. My kids are fussy the whole time, but I was having a ball. The paintings and colorings on everything with the glasses literally make you feel like you are hallucinating. In some cases I felt like I was hovering or something and didn't know where to put my feet at. Absolute riot. Course was decent. Not overtly hard - good for my 6yo and 8yo. There was one hole about 2/3 of the way through that was basically impossible. Got a military discount too. After we finished the girl at the counter asked if we wanted some free tokens for the arcade. I don't know if that is standard or she just felt bad for me and having my kids go nuclear multiple times while there. In either case, a super nice gesture but I had to decline because I just needed to get them outta there.
