1. Whirlwind Golf Club
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 90 reviews
Whirlwind Golf Club is truly a unique southwest golf experience. The courses, clubhouse, and practice facilities are sensitively designed to preserve the rich cultural heritage of the Gila River Indian Community. Named for the prominent design feature of the hand-woven basketry of the Authum tribe, Whirlwind is the work of golf course architect Gary Panks. His design weaves the spirit and legacy of this ancient land into a marvelous test of golf. The Devil's Claw course features sweeping elevation changes and dramatic bunkering. The Cattail course complements the Devil's Claw, but lends a whole new flavor to this 36-hole masterpiece, with its rolling fairways accented by striking water features and deep canyons. Whirlwind promises a dynamic golf experience marked by spectacular landscaping, unrivaled course conditions, and genuine customer service.

We took advantage of their 36 hole special on a recent Saturday in January. Prices were fair for our high season ($235 with a $50 gift card back). I was able to reserve the time 60 days in advance, which is too rare in this area. The course layout is fairly friendly off the tee, with wide fairways studded with deep bunkers and well-protected greens. Conditions and pace of play were excellent. While the courses are not as dramatic as the best of Scottsdale (Troon North, Wekopa, etc), they were fun, scenic, and challenging enough for me!

The course was beautiful and in good shape! The greens are fast with tricky hole placements. Overall, a bit of a challenge especially with water hazards being on a majority of the holes. The staff was friendly and the weather was beautiful! Would definently play here again if we are in town. FYI - The course appears to get busy in the afternoon, I suggest an early morning tee time for good play pace. After our round, we ate at their grille, buffalo chicken wrap with ranch was excellent!

The Grille at Lone Tree in Chandler is your typical golf course grille but a new chef has escalated the dining. His specials are all well done and fit within a modest budget. Yes, you can still get brats, burgers and dogs but the lunches and dinner specials are just that, special!
