Arizona offers one of the best and most diverse varieties of golf choices in the country with more than 300 golf courses, most of which are located within 90 minutes of the Phoenix metropolitan area.  There are several key golf locations in Arizona with a variety of price, service and layout options. 

Scottsdale has the highest density of high-end resort and daily-fee golf courses.  In addition to golf, visitors to Scottsdale can enjoy spas, resort pools, shopping, and fine restaurants.  Courses with national reputations such as Troon North, and Grayhawk Golf Club have raised the bar of golf course service everywhere while mega resorts such as Marriott’s Desert Ridge featring 36 holes at Wildfire Golf Club and the Westin Kierland featuring Kierland Golf Club with its enjoyable 27 holes offer choices for a one-stop golf vacation paradise in the heart of Scottsdale and Phoenix.  Courses such as the picturesque Rancho Manana Golf Club offer an experience that truly represents what is unique about golf in the Arizona Desert – lots of mountain and valley views, elevation changes, and a virtual forest of saguaro cactus.  In addition to those already mentioned, Scottsdale and Phoenix have a good variety of high quality stand-alone courses such as SunRidge Canyon Golf Club, Eagle Mountain Golf Club, and Sanctuary Golf Course.  SunRidge Canyon, ranked as a Top 50 “You can Play” by Golf Magazine in 1996 is a great layout with spectacular mountain and desert views from the cozy clubhouse patio.

Other standouts with a touch of value include Club West Golf Club in the Ahwatukee area and Palm Valley Golf Club in the West Valley. Palm Valley offers both an exciting championship course and fun to play shorter mid-length course.
