"0"^^ . "3"^^ . . . "0"^^ . "We played 3 local golf courses while on our trip to Phoenix last week. \n\nWhile this place wasn't my favourite, it was definitely the nicest looking!! It's a beautiful course and we chose to play it so we could experience \"golf in the desert\". Visually, it was spectacular!\n\nWhen we first arrived, we had a difficult time figuring out where to go. There aren't a lot of signs to guide you, so give yourself a little extra time. Fee's were the highest of all 3 courses we played but still reasonable (it was about $80).\n\nMost holes aren't very long, but they offer a good challenge! Several holes are built into the side of one of the mountains with steep inclines (both up & down) which added some fun challenge. These holes also had amazing views of some of the valley!\n\nOur favourite hole was on the back 9, where you had to cross a small bridge to an island to tee off. We even had a small turtle come join us on the tee box!\n\nOverall, I think it was a great course to do once. Not totally sure I'd do it again unless they had a good deal going on (my fav course of the trip was half the price). But glad I got a chance to experience it :)"^^ . "2013-10-27T00:00:00"^^ . .
