Lookout Mountain Golf Club

Oh. My. God. This is hands-down the most beautiful golf course I’ve ever played. Right before we teed off, the marshal gave us a warning I’ll never forget: “The first six holes are going to feel really good… and after hole seven, it just gets tougher. And tougher. And tougher.” He was not wrong. The course starts off friendly enough, then slowly turns into a full-on test of golf — elevation changes, tight desert lines, and absolutely zero forgiveness if you miss your spot. I’m not exactly a great golfer, so yes… I donated a lot of golf balls to the Arizona desert 🌵😅. Worth it. Add in record-breaking Phoenix heat, and this Canadian boy was truly put through the wringer — but honestly, that just made it even more memorable. Tough, fair, stunning, and incredibly well maintained. Despite the struggle (and the scorecard), we had an amazing time. If you’re looking for a challenging round with jaw-dropping views, this place is an absolute must-play. I’d recommend it in a heartbeat — just bring extra balls… and water. 🏌️‍♂️🌞🇨🇦

Visited from NC. First time playing golf in AZ. I had a flight home after golf and we were able to put our luggage in the cart barn. Big plus for that. From the time Mike took our clubs, it was a great experience. The views were stunning. Fairways were very forgiving although I did I get in a little “desert golf”. Greens were perfect. Got paired with a member, Bob. He helped on a couple of lines off the tee. The 10th tee, the highest tee box in AZ was majestic. And don’t pass on the Hot dogs at the turn. Just a beautiful place to play. When I return for my next trip..yes, I will be back, this will be the first and third course I play. Not sure about the “newbie” I’ll play. MAN WHAT A BEAUTIFUL PLACE. Thanks Lookout Mountain staff for all you do to make it a special place.

This course offers a fantastic blend of desert and mountain golf, with most holes seamlessly integrated into the natural landscape. While some holes are challenging, the majority of fairways are open, and the smaller-than-usual greens add an extra layer of difficulty. The numerous elevation changes provide stunning views of the surrounding Lookout Mountain area. Be sure to take some photos at the Bird’s Nest between holes 9 and 10. The course was in excellent condition, although the fairways were a bit long, likely due to the early December timing and recent overspending. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the pace of play was excellent, thanks to the starter’s strategy of spacing out groups. I would definitely return to play this course again!

Great place with some great holes with elevation changes. Course was in great shape. My son and I enjoyed it a bunch.

Fantastic course. Challenging, with great views of Phoenix among the mansions. They had just over-seeded in late Oct, so the fairways were a little long, but playable.
