As it has been said many times before, Mountain Shadows is the best executive (Par-3) course around.\n\nIt's in a very pretty setting essentially at the north base of Camelback Mtn. The several holes played around the lake are especially nice.\n\nI played out here Sunday morning for the first time in a couple years and I was rudely reminded about how tough a par-3 course can be when the greens are small, firm, and fast. It makes for a good short game challenge if you're up for it. It's not the walk in the park like Continental or other easy executive courses.\n\nThe resort that used to be apart of the complex is closed and shuttered so it's mostly just members of the club playing out here now. The dilapidated buildings don't do much for the ambiance of the area, but they have kept the course looking nice.\n\nGood rates can be found online. It's a fun course, but like other reviewers have said, I wouldn't pay more than the $45 I spent for a 2.5 hour round of par 3s. Overall, I recommend the course to players of all levels for the right price.
