With its wide variety of cultural and recreational attractions, it is an outstanding sight for both vacation and business travel.
Voted best new course in Arizona in 1996, The Golf Club at Eagle Mountain exists in harmony with nature. This course winds through natural box canyons, rolling hills, and lush desert valleys. You get to see mountains, picturesque valleys and downtown cityscapes combined with the tranquility of the pristine Sonoran Desert as you play golf.
Sidewinder snakes around the base of Dinosaur Mountain, through natural arroyos and dry creek beds. Native cholla and prickly pear cacti, mesquite and palo verde trees line the challenging twists and turns that will keep you on top of your game. Nature's beauty will bring you back again and again. Sidewinder has been awarded a 4 Star Rating by Golf Digest.
Voted the No. 1 rated public course in Arizona two years running, the Dinosaur Mountain Course takes golfers further into the high desert environment, where a round of golf includes magnificent views of the Superstition Mountains. The dramatic tee to green elevation changes are breathtaking and the course has been described as "24 Karat Gold" by the Arizona Republic.
The Raven Golf Club at Verrado, a spectacular daily-fee golf course tucked in the picturesque foothills of the White Tank Mountains west of downtown Phoenix. Crafted by renowned designer John Fought and former British Open Champion Tom Lehman, The Raven Golf Club is a must-play. Enjoy the natural beauty and the finest guest service in the business.
Tall native grasses. Breathtaking desert vistas. Blue skies that stretch on forever. Trilogy at Vistancia is not simply a new golf course, it is a new golf experience. Crafted by renowned golf course architect Gary Panks, the championship design at Trilogy provides a challenge to the most accomplished players while still accommodating the novice. With towering golden grasses bordering the lush green fairways, Panks and his team created a striking landscape that's as pleasant to the eye as it is dramatic for the golf game.
Ranked 42nd on Golf Magazine's "Top 100 courses you can play in the United States," SunRidge Canyon is straight forward and nature has not been totally tamed to man's needs. The fairway and green-side bunkers are in strategic positions where they force you to consider both the risk and the rewards of executing your next shot. From the "Canyon" tees, No. 17 is widely considered to be the best par 3 in the Valley of the Sun.
Selected by Sports Illustrated as one of the "Top ten new golf courses in the world," We-Ko-Pa has been designed by noted golf course architect Scott Miller. It was created to play a challenging 7,225 yards from the back tees.
In addition, there are no - nor will there ever be - homes or condos on the golf course. This is not all - it was also featured in 2003 Zaget's survey of America's Top Golf Courses and it received its highest overall ranking in Arizona, as well as honors as one of the Top 50 courses in America for customer service in 2003.
With the "Long Trail" being 6,845 yards, you'll have to bring your "A" game
to score well from these tees. The course features wide fairways,
bent grass greens, small bunkering, and island tees. Each hole adheres
to the natural lay of the land, winding through washes and ravines,
and playing along stands of indigenous saguaro cacti and Palo Verde.
With holes named "Painted Desert," "Water Change," and "Good Medicine,"
Legend Trail Golf Club captures a bit of the Old West spirit and
certainly the special essence of the Southwest Sonoran style of
golf.
