Coldwater rolls over rare natural undulations for the Phoenix metro, giving Forrest Richardson room to craft engaging tee shots. Generous fairways lead to elevated or angled greens where missing on the proper side is everything. The design uses mounding and desert corridors more than heavy bunkering to frame lines and add visual drama. From the back tees the par 72 track is fair but hardly easy, with a course rating just over 71. A full grass range and practice areas are positioned near the clubhouse for quick, efficient warm ups.
