July 30, had a great time, greeted by helpful and friendly staff, walked on (at) 10am, I enjoyed the condition of the course, they were ready for a tourney the following week.
My mistake was playing from the back tees for my handicap, The groups in front had no problem letting me play through, it is a very challenging course, but I will be back to try again. I was so pleased with the course that I played Sun Mountain the following day.

We played last week and found the course in wonderful condition. This was our first time playing the Wolf Course. Grip and Rip. Each hole is a different experience but one thing is for certain, once on the greens we had our hands full. They were all firm, fast and tough to read. My favorite hole is number 6. Visually intimidating risk reward par 5. I did not care for the island hole. It seemed out of place with the natural terrain and feel of the layout. We had a bite to eat in the clubhouse after our round overlooking the 9th hole of the Snow Mountain course. Very enjoyable day.
Great course with 2 totally different nines.
Front nine is fairly flat and wide open with water on 7 of 9 holes.
Back nine is more target golf with elevation changes and blind shots. More challenging of the 2 nines.
Great staff and food. The practice facilities can accommodate complete game warm up.
This course can accommodate the beginning golfer up to a scratch player with the variance in tee boxes.
A great course for the price.

Played on July 26. This was a pretty challenging course even though I played fairly well through the front 9 holes. The only problem I had was the fact that it was 95° by 8am and with the elevated tee boxes and other elevated areas I was extremely exhausted while playing the back 9 and my score definitely showed it. If I ever play Wolf Creek again, I will pay the extra money and play while it is cool. Other than that the course was in great shape, the greens were fairly easy to read and the bunkers for the most part were very well groomed.
Played on Sunday 8-22. Early Tee time 7:00 AM. Have played the Wolf 4 times before. Always during this time of year because of the lower rates, 70.00 dollars. We arrived early, noticed very few cars in the parking lot. Checked in with the starter, and got right out within 5 minutes of arriving. No one in front of us or behind us. We started thinking, whats wrong with this picture. you're talking about one of the best golf courses in the country right! Well after playing the first hole we realized that the overall conditions of the course resembled a not very well kept muni. The fairways were beat up, the grass growing out of control. dirt in the middle of the fairways. roped off areas protecting players from walking in mud.The last 3 holes smelled so bad we couldn't wait to get out of there. When you're standing on the teeing areas looking out at the vistas, everything looks great, but once you get to the fairways and can't find a good lie anywhere, because the ball is on dirt or mud, you know that you are in for a long day. On the good side the greens were in good shape. But that's about it. Very disappointing day of golf at on of my favorite courses. Oh by the way, when we were leaving we asked the guy who cleans the clubs, who I know has worked there for 5 years if he knew anything, he just shrugged and said the economy has affected the Golf Course and wouldn't say anymore. Next time you plan a trip to Wolf Creek you better call ahead of time, and hope they are honest with you.
Played 8-22, before 7am. For an early tee time, pace was slow, but, marshal was out ensuring everyone was playing from the correct tees. Fairways were in great condition. Greens were good with the exception with some of the collars (18) and 3 was a mess. It is the hottest time of the year. Bunkers seemed like desert dirt, and hard packed. Overall good, just short of great, especially with the weather conditions.
We played early Sun Aug. 8th. Only played this course one other time about 3 years ago & I only remembered a few holes. This is a MUST play course & right now, in the middle of the summer the course is in EXCELLENT Condition! NO RESTRICTIONS, just 90* rule needed to be used, most players did not...

The day we played there was a Shotgun Senior event. The starter was very accommodating, did not want to see us play or get behind groups on hole #1 PLUS heavy rainstorm was forecasted. The plan was to start our threesome on the back nine Hole#10, I was ok with doing so! My only gripe was to THEN move our group from the 10th tee to hole #6! So starting out on a PAR 5, no knowing where to hit our 2nd shot (DOG LEG HARD RIGHT), I thought I hit a perfect 5 wood into the fairway, ball lost. Still a little ticked off we started our round on the 6th HOLE especially since we had a starting tee time. The Senior group was already behind us in the fairway plus we had to wait on the Senior group in front of us on the next hole.
On the horizon was a major storm brewing & coming fast! We made it to hole #11 before EVERYONE was pulled off the course Lightning &Thunderstorm followed by heavy down pour. The entire Sky Mountain Staff got everyone off the course, carts in the cart barn, players into the Golf Shop/Rest shelter area. Rain checks were offered, we declined since the storm was expected to pass in 30 minutes.
We re-started on Hole #12 PAR 3, finally settled into our round. Pace of play was actually faster than expected since it was a large Shotgun event. The scenery is spectacular! On the 18th BLACK tee box, looking back towards the 17th green, there is a deep wide trench,a natural waterfall appeared from the rainstorm that just past through.
This course definitely needs to be played a few times to learn how to play certain holes. The greens are soft so spike & ball marks need to be repaired properly. The majority speed of the greens are slow. I believe the Superintendent doesn't want to cut the greens too low for fear of losing them in the summer heat.

Played Monday as part of the Nature Valley Amateur. Very nice course in very good shape. Greens rolled very well. Best putting day I have had in months. Lots of wasted areas and desert comes into play. Some forced carries off the tee. Downhill Par 3 #2...stay right. Left is lateral and unplayable. Very nice golf course would love a second chance at this. Plays like a resort course on steroids.
played yesterday.. we played the diablo/desperado courses. awesome course. great condition. great sand, nice greens (everything breaks towards the strip, look for the needle on the stratosphere), great fairways, great tee boxes, not overly long but target golf for sure. if you're far off target, you're on the rocks/desert. highly recommend playing here if you're in the area. you can get a good super twilight rate. nice staff. gps. ummm, it would help to play here with someone who knows what's going on as many holes don't require driver. can't wait to play here again. peace out.
Played on Tues the 27th and the course was in pretty good shape, considering that it was over 100 degrees. I laugh at the reviews that expect perfection in the desert courses during the summer, but this course was in pretty good shape. Greens a little slow, but rolled true. Cart girl was always close and saw her often. Fairways were decent and had very few dead zones and the rough was alive with few dead zones as well. Worth the money for the round
Played on Monday afternoon and the course is in great shape. Played the Diablo and the Outlaw and had a blast on both courses. This is a fun track, not overly long, but has nice challenge and is in fantastic shape. Well worth the 35 bucks for twilight. Fast greens, very firm and some interesting holes. Rough in perfect shape and very consistent.
Played 7/25.. tee'd off at 545am.. Very nice conditions for July. Greens where fantastic, smooth and held well. Fairways, rough and sand all very good. Good deal for 60.00 Plays as nice or better than many courses in the area for 99.00+
