Course condition

Front nine is in excellent condition. Don’t understand why back nine not. Greens somewhat burned out. Weeds growing in traps. You would think they are two different courses. Overall enjoyable.

Decent course

Like so many other Scottsdale area courses, , overpriced. Range balls not included and no area to chip.
Convenient and plenty of tee times, would play again for under $100.

Thank you for playing Starfire and thank you for the feedback. Starfire feels so fortunate to have a driving range now as it didn't for over 65 years and was finally constructed back in 2018. Maybe a chipping green could be in the cards down the road.
We hope to welcome you back again soon.

Friendly round in the rain

Course held up great with the unexpected rain. Couple pin placements were a bit funky but overall, enjoyed the course very much.

Thank you so much for playing Starfire! We are glad you enjoyed the golf course and we appreciate your review! So unfortunate for the less than golf savvy twosome you were paired with.
We do look forward to having you back out for an enjoyable round at Starfire! -Travis Fish, Director of Golf

Course conditions

Typical for the spring in phoenix. I lived here for 13 years and the courses tend to be quite hard and under watered, especially in the spring.. Over all the course was in good shape

Course in excellent condition

Tee Time 8am and pace of play was excellent. The course condition was outstanding. Completed 18 holes in under 3 1/2 hours. The course was beautiful with green flowering shrubbery, palm trees and several ponds. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. This was about my 5th or 6th time here and the course was better than ever.
