Golf Club of Estrella
About
Golf Club of Estrella is the very first golf course on a daily-fee basis to be designed by Jack Nicklaus II in Phoenix, where it makes its home in the master-planned community Estrella, and offers 18 holes of par-72 championship golf over 7,102 unique yards. The many tests of the golf course will impress every level of golfer - though a choice of tee sets ensures no one will get in over his or her head. Desert and wash spaces require golfers to vary their shots while they take in vistas from the fairways shaped to the contour of the land and framed in the Sierra Estrella Mountains.
A round of golf at the Golf Club Estrella kicks off on Morning Star, a par 4 that measures 359 yards from the black tees. If you stick to the black tees, you'll need to conserve your energy for The Arroyo, the 16th hole, a par 5 that measures 605 yards. After that, Evening Star, the 18th hole, will be a relative breeze, at par 4 and just 437 yards from the black teees.
Once the round of golf at the Golf Club of Estrella is over, head back to the Player's Grill Restaurant for American pub fare and Southwestern snacks.

Great scenic golf course
Good layout, nice fairways great tee-boxes nice practice area…🏌🏿♂️⛳️
This time of year Best Value around
Here for a couple weeks and will play Estrella three times. It’s the best value for conditions. Greens aren’t fast but that’s to be expected at this time.
Nice track
Great track for the price. Greens slow but I understand why based on the time of year.
Would Play It Again
My first time playing this course and I would play it again. The course was in pretty good shape from tee to green and the speed of the greens was about right; not too fast and not too slow.
My biggest complaint was the pace of play on the back nine. The front nine moved fairly well (2:10) but when we made the turn, there were four groups on the 10th tee and that basically continued for the next 3 to 4 holes. Groups were leaving the course and two people in our foursome quit on the 13th hole because of the pace. The head pro, Jon Taylor came out to the course and apologized . I appreciated him coming out and talking with us directly.
Good but not great
Course was in Good shape for the summertime Greens were very slow though. They had tons of grass and could have easily cut them down a little bit to make it more playable.
Course is a fantastic layout.
Restaurant is awful. Service is terrible so we went elsewhere afterwards
Kind of expensive for the summer conditions.
They raised the price Sept 1 for some crazy reason. Its still hot by the way in Sept here
Great Course
The course was in great shape, the staff is always very friendly and helpful. Pace was just right and I enjoy this course every time we play it
Awesum Layout
The course was absolutely beautiful. The layout was excellent and the greens were in great shape. The only negative were the fairways were a little stressed due to the month long 110 degree temps.
First impressions
Course was in great shape, played 18 holes and under four hours. Paired Up with three total strangers, had a blast definitely will be back.
Nice challenging layout
Well designed desert layout. Some summer grass issues but didn’t impact play. Bunkers slightly better but still need more sand, fewer rocks and a little more TLC. Could be a very nice Troon course with a little more attention to detail and customer service.
Enjoyed the Round
Course was in good shape with greens rolling true. Some holes were too long for my playing ability so I just moved up a tee box on those. Pace of play was good on this day.
Great course layout in solid condition
If you can play this track for under $50 - do it. It’s a lot of fun, in good condition, with some decently challenging holes. Great place to practice getting out of the sand ha. Pace of play was great. Never had to wait.
Disappointed
For a Troon course, this was a big disappointment. They should not have their name on this course, drags down their brand. Not well maintained, greens were below average, little amenities, dirty old buildings and facilities, and dirty bathrooms. Hard to tell where the dessert begins and fairways end. Not worth the $48.00, or the $150.00 plus in the winter.
Great summer golf
I have played here quite often. Conditions yeaterday were the best i have seen them. Fairways are nice and tight and greens are smooth with decent speed. Always can find a good deal on Golf Now.
Hidden Gem on the West Side
Staff was courteous and accommodating. Provided towels in cart and changed them out at the turn.
Range and practice facility is great and included in the daily rate
Course was challenging enough without being a confidence killer. Greens held iron shots and rolled true
Good little bar and grill
Only somewhat negative is the homes that seemed to choke the course on some holes
Will play again
Amazing conditions especially for summer golf in AZ!
Course was absolutely beautiful and conditions for the summer were way above my expectations. There’s a lot of courses that wish they had these conditions in the winter prime season. Greens were all green and grown in. No dead or brown spots on any of the greens. Highly recommend playing here!
