Blackstone Country Club

Peoria, AZ • Private

Overview

Currently ranked among our Best Courses in Arizona, Blackstone is a desert-style course with many links qualities, including prominent fairway undulations, strategically placed deep bunkers and numerous blind shots to elevated greens. Both the fairways and greens play more generous than they appear as the edges are often raised, kicking balls back into play. The club’s impressive 30,000 square-foot Hacienda-style clubhouse is the perfect place to wind down after the round.

“solid layout, definitely fun to play, club is a little snooty for what it is, staff apparently thinks they work somewhere really fancy. Slow service, takes forever to get drinks and then rangers hound you to catch up to a 2-some three holes ahead that is flying around the course. The course itself is fine, probably one of Jim Engh's better layouts. But the staff can really put a damper on the overall experience."

“A course laid out through a housing development, but set back far enough so that the houses do not interfere with the playability. A lot of the fairways are banked to encourage wayward balls to go back to the fairways. It was in good condition the day I played here. I found the holes to be average challenge, but really did enjoy the day and will come back."
