Karsten Golf Course is considered by many to be the best
public course in Tempe as well as the best collegiate course in the
Southwest.
This 18 hole, links style course sits under the south
side of ASU's 'A' mountain and is surrounded by a univeristy setting.
Karsten has received accolades from the Golf Digest Rating Panel and
has been played by Phil Mickelson and Billy Mayfair.
The clubhouse houses an ASU-themed pro shop and a bar
and grill frequented by golfers and after-work sports fans.
Green fees vary by season. They are as high as $108 in
the winter and as low as $32 in the summer.
Karsten is a challenging play with bunker, water, and
sand hazards.
