Pine at McCormick Ranch Golf Club
About
The Pine Course at the McCormick Ranch Golf Club offers mature pines, in an appropriate contrast to its sibling golf course, the Pine Course, and is also narrower than the other golf course. What they have in common include the facts that Desmond Muirhead designed both of them and they both date back to 1972; recent renovations have also given both golf courses new greens, sand traps and bridges.
The Pine at McCormick Ranch Golf Club measures 7,187 yards, kicking off on a 398-yard par 4 that requires tee shot toward the fairway's center, leaving golfers a mid- to short-iron from the green, which slopes narrowly. Things get long by the fourth hole, one of four par-5 holes that come in at over 500 yards; this one, for example, makes you place your drive well toward right-center if you want to shoot for it in two. Close out the round of golf on the 18th hole, another long one, at 517 yards from the blue tees, and a tight hole to drive that will, thankfully, provide your last test for the day.

Nice Mountain View’s…..boring layout
The course is conveniently located and has nice views. The condition was average at best and most holes were just boring. Many better out there.
STAY AWAY. Stay home and burn money, it will be more enjoyable
What a total joke this golf course is, just like your local Municipal Court only 10 times the price. Plane conditions are definitely no better than a small town municipal layout of the course is mediocre at best.. the staff and service are horrible.
It is clear that there is no management leadership anywhere to be found near this facility.
If you’re going to play somewhere in Phoenix play somewhere else anywhere else.
STAY AWAY!
Was expecting better
The course had very few golfers on it which allowed for a fast pace of play however it also explained some things. The front 9 was just plain bad. Grounds were in terrible shape. It was difficult to even determine the layout of a hole. Very disappointing for the value.
I play courses like this back home for $15-$20.
Our group has scratched this course off our list of return destinations.
Enjoyable round
The staff was very friendly and the course was challenging. Greens were true and fast.
Tough Greens if Above Hole. Hard to Hold on Greens
I have played here before, but the person who set pin positions on this particular day must not be a golf fan. Very difficult pin positions which SLOWS DOWN PLAY - Less $$$ for Course. A few holes are fine, but when 6 out of every 9 are difficult to put it causes frustration and slow play.
Great course
Fun challenging course. The Island green number one handicap hole requires strategy and skill which unfortunately I didn’t employ. Greens are fast but fair. Would definitely come back again.
