Dan Anderson of Phoenix, AZ says : Dinosaur Mountain is one of the best courses I have ever played - bar none. The layout, scenery, desert wildlife (I've seen javalina, deer, a gila monster, roadrunners, coyotes, quail, etc.) all make for one enjoyable round of golf. It can be a challenging layout - if you play from the 'wrong' tees. I've played this course about 5 times over the years and I'm never disappointed. I don't hesitate to recommend it as one of the best golf courses in the area. Pros: Condition of Course, Layout, Ambiance Cons: None worth mentioning Would Travel: 30-60 Miles, Vacation Worthy Bottom Line: I would play again, Ranks with the best in this price level, I would recommend this course, Best course in the area Ranked on 2010-11-11		Year Played: 2010 Month Played: Oct Day Played: Mon Time Played: noon	Price: $51 - $55 Cart Included: Yes Layout: 5 Fairways: 5 Greens: 4 Ambiance: 5 Pace: 5 Overall: 5 Value: 5
