About The Wigwam Resort - Gold Course (Litchfield Park, AZ)
At more than 7,300 yards, The Gold Course anchors the Wigwam golf trio. Robert Trent Jones, Sr. created The Gold to rival the famous South Course at Firestone CC in Akron, Ohio. Among the highlights are the 645-yard 4th hole, a par five that requires strength and patience. The 8th is a long par four to a green perched above an ominous canal. But it is the finish, that stretch from the 16th home, that will test the nerves of any golfer. The 16th is a par 3 over water to a split-level green, the 17th is a par 4 to a narrow green across a pond, and the 18th is among the toughest finishing holes in all of Arizona. At the 18th the golfer faces a diagonal tee shot across water, followed by an approach to a green sitting right on the edge of a canal. As with all great golf holes, the 18th allows the golfer to choose the degree of risk.

Murray says:
The course is nothing spectacular...it didn't live up to the promotional material. The score card or each tee box should have a picture of what the holes look like. Not knowing this puts a first-timer to the course at a disadvantage.

Joe (Glendale, AZ) says:
The gold course at the Wigwam is a very fun course to play. I played from the tips which was around 7400 yards and offered a challenge from tee to green. This course has nice scenery and is very enjoyable. The greens are also demanding and there are no "gimmies" here.
