I was showing a foreclosure property in Mesquite today - right on the Palmer Golf Course in the Ironwood subdivision. The home has a gorgeous southern view of the mountains over the course. As I was taking a few pictures for my huge collection, I noticed some small movements as I took some shots. I thought it was birds or ducks. When I stepped back into the home from the back patio, I glanced back through the window.
Four little kids were running around - playing hide and seek. A hilly golf course in Mesquite is a great place to play - little mountains, huge rocks, bushes and trees - and even sandboxes. I was watching them through the window and they were having a really good time. The little kid with the blue shoes was fast ... kept diving over the little hills.
I was laughing at them, thinking what a good time they were having. Then I thought, 'Wait a minute! There are golfers out there!' That is so dangerous. The house that I was showing had some serious golfball hits on the back of it coming from right behind where the kids were playing.
I stepped outside to yell at the kids to get out of there and go home - they saw me and ran away. Busted!

What a beautiful course - no wonder those kids couldn't resist running around out there!
I know - they were having a blast!
Golf course homes are beautiful....but you have to watch for those balls, and if you like a more private backyard, you might not like the "traffic" coming by on the course. But it could also be very entertaining.
If you are a golfer, of course, case closed!
Thomas, I tell my clients who want to buy on a golfcourse so that they can watch the golfers:
Just remember that they are watching you right back.
