Scottsdale Silverado Golf Club - Silver Pony Course

Open course with lots of room for missed shots off tee. Greens were not in good shape and sand was also bad. Fairways rolled so you got that benefit working for you on miss hits too. All in probably would just play a cheaper course for that quality.

The course is fine. Super hard and dry which makes the course play very short. We played $90 for twilight amount. It's hard to believe this is the type of course that warrants over $120 for a standard tee time. It's very mediocre quality. The staff and all was very nice.

Course was well kept !
Staff was friendly and helpful
We will be playing again this week.

The course was in horrible conditions and given the cost it is not worth the money they charge. There are much better choices for the same kind of money.

Great layout and friendly fairways made for a great round for mid to high handicappers.
Just enough challenges to make for an interesting round
Enjoyed by all. Greens were very true and made for easy straight putts .

Course was very dry, fairways were brutal. Only a couple of holes were in decent shape.
Way to expensive for the poor quality course that it is.

Was in town for a few days and decided to play one extra round of golf. We settled on Silverado based on proximity, reviews, and availability for our specific tee time. There were plenty of times available even a day or 2 before but it was a mistake. It was about $150 a round for some of the worst conditions. The folks on the course are nice but I would not play here ever again. First, they do maintainence during the day while you’re playing. Want to tee off or hit a shot from the fairway? Wait for the grounds team to move their machines and carts. This was the case for the front 9 the day I went which was unbelievable. The fairways and course condition was just as tragic. The fairways are cement so if you usually take divots, you likely will need a cast on your wrist or elbow after your round. Sand traps were terrible. Hard sand and not enough sand. My leading wrist was in extreme pain after 5 holes. Don’t be fooled by the aesthetics of how they directionally mow their fairways.
Some of the holes are behind each other so for some holes you’d have to drive the cart a few minutes just to get to the next hole. The layout was weird and there are public trails that run through the course so be careful of random bikers or people on skates cruising by.

Skip this course and play somewhere else

Very dissatisfied with what we received for the money. The greens were punched recently with no warning from staff about this when we booked or when we checked in. There is no driving range and that was not conveyed very well at arrival or booking time. Rest of course conditions were not really what was to be expected paying the $150 for the round. Carts were very basic with no onscreen displays for yardages. Overall sub par experience and would not recommend for anyone looking for a good golf experience in the Scottsdale area.

For no driving range and a 5-hour round, this course was expensive. I played at McCormick Ranch two days before for $50 less and that included range balls. We played in a little over 4 hours. Much better experience! Even the Kierlands was cheaper and that is a resort course.

We started 15 minutes late due to the course being backed up, and it took 5 hours to knockout our round. The conditions were nice, and the staff were very pleasant to chat with. The only reason I didn’t say that I wouldn’t recommend is that i hope this was a one off experience. It was worth trying once, but i likely won’t return.. If the pace was improved or the price was significantly reduced I might change my opinion.
