Resorts at McCormick Ranch Scottsdale

Kinda gnatty tbh. I’ve played muni’s in the valley and they are in as good of shape.

Likely the good location and catchy name keeps the traffic up.

Re: “asterisk”: they are refurbishing 2 of the nines. And planning to do the other 2 nines next year. So depending on what they charge, may re-assess bang for buck.

It was my first time playing this course - I could see how, in the right shape this would be a really fun track. The open landscape and palms are beautiful, and the course layout is great. Because of the recent wet weather, or course renovations (or both), the course was a sloppy mess. Soggy everywhere, flooded and unplayable bunkers, cart paths riddled with potholes. I played on Thanksgiving, so will give the benefit of the doubt for slow pace, but will not be playing this course again over the winter due to the conditions - maybe would for $50-$60, but not for $100+. I've seen others suggest waiting until renovations are finished and I would have to agree with that.

Really good course but was told it was cart path only when we got there. Was a little disappointed but we still played at a good pace. I will absolutely go back.

Terrible shape and on course amenities are really run down. Price of golf is 3x higher than it should be for course conditions

Palm course front nine was in decent shape , back nine pine course was in terrible shape

Guys in the clubhouse always seem miserable, so nothing new there. Bag guys are always on their game. The course was sopping wet, but that’s not really a big deal. Gotta question playing the backside of the Pine course for our back 9. It was wet and the oversees grass was LONG, even in the fairways. The rough was 8” tall in spots. I understand that courses need revenue, but at some point we have to be transparent with the public. I’ve played here a lot, but won’t be going back. Ever.

I was worried about playing this course today after bad recent reviews and lots of rain yesterday. However, the course was in good shape considering the weather and the starter had us play the back 9 of both courses since they were in the best shape. It was a fun and challenging course with beautiful views and helpful staff.

Had to play two different courses since they had the front 9 of Pine and back 9 of Palm closed. Good time though. Pace was awesome until they threw a group of 10 yr old kids ahead of us on the front 9 of Palm. We just passed them and skipped hole 1. Our cart also died but the staff was quick to bring a backup. The two 9s were in great shape and it's been a while since I played Palm. The snack bar amenities were closed and no cart person on the course. Bummer and the reason for the low review.

It’s summer in az and we can expect some rough conditions. There is a lot of work going in at the course, so it should be better in the fall. My complaint is that the tee time was sold as the palm course but it was back 9 of palm and back 9 of pine. I should have been alerted before I booked. There is a lot of water in the sand traps. It’s sort of ok for the price but I probably wouldn’t have booked if i knew the front 9 was closed.

I liked the course design. Rather challenging holes with water on the side.

The palm course was beautiful and is exactly as described. The staff was very friendly and helpful & the food at the club was excellent. Will definitely be back!

The back nine was under water, extremely wet - could not believe it was even open for play. Front nine was in great shape. Would play again one the back nine is cleaned up and dried out.
