COURSE INFO

The Lakes Course brings a refreshing contrast to Scottsdale's Sonoran Desert, with sparkling waterways, lush fairways, and a signature waterfall finishing hole that rewards both strategy and precision.

Holes: 9 Yards: 3,376 Par: 36 Rating: 71.4 Slope: 128

1st Hole

Par 4 · 394

Pro’s Tip:

This dogleg right par 4 to begin the Lakes Course favors a left to right shaped tee shot. The undulating and pitched green offers many challenging hole locations to test your short game.

Tee 1: 394

Tee 2: 363

Tee 3: 330

Tee 4: 280

2nd Hole

Par 4 · 365

Pro’s Tip:

This short par 4 allows long hitter to take a swing at getting a short wedge shot into the green. Be sure to keep your approach underneath the hole on this back to front sloped green.

Tee 1: 365

Tee 2: 333

Tee 3: 285

Tee 4: 264

3rd Hole

Par 4 · 395

Pro’s Tip:

This is the first water hole of the Lakes Course - an ideal tee shot will stay right of the center of the fairway. It is important to find the correct section of this multi-tiered green.

Tee 1: 395

Tee 2: 352

Tee 3: 326

Tee 4: 304

4th Hole

Par 3 · 190

Pro’s Tip:

Par is a good score on this long par 3 with water on the left.

Tee 1: 190

Tee 2: 170

Tee 3: 141

Tee 4: 114

5th Hole

Par 5 · 521

Pro’s Tip:

This double dogleg par 5 is reachable in 2 if you challenge the left fairway bunker and trees off the tee. You will have to shape your second shot around a few well placed trees to get an eagle chance.

Tee 1: 521

Tee 2: 493

Tee 3: 468

Tee 4: 447

6th Hole

Par 4 · 411

Pro’s Tip:

This dogleg left can be shortened by taking on the left fairway bunker. An errant tee shot usually results in an uneven lie, making controlling your approach more difficult to this multi-tiered green.

Tee 1: 411

Tee 2: 386

Tee 3: 364

Tee 4: 346

7th Hole

Par 4 · 410

Pro’s Tip:

Maybe the best par 4 at Gainey Ranch, this hole challenges all facets of your game. Your tee shot must negotiate the lake on the right and the deep fairway bunker on the left. Approach shots must also carry the lake and creek, and the green is divided by multiple ridges to challenge your short game.

Tee 1: 410

Tee 2: 379

Tee 3: 353

Tee 4: 326

8th Hole

Par 3 · 198

Pro’s Tip:

This downhill par 3 is protected by the lake on the right and a bunker in front of the back to front sloped green.

Tee 1: 198

Tee 2: 156

Tee 3: 132

Tee 4: 109

9th Hole

Par 5 · 492

Pro’s Tip:

A great finishing hole, this dogleg left par 5 is the ultimate in risk vs. reward. The view of the waterfall and clubhouse as you approach the green leaves players with a great memory of the Lakes Course.

Tee 1: 492

Tee 2: 437

Tee 3: 420

Tee 4: 387
