Arizona Golf Vacations

Golf Club of Estrella

Located 35 minutes west of downtown Phoenix, the Golf Club of Estrella is a championship Arizona desert style course located in the midst of the Sierra Estrella Mountain Range. The fairways follow the natural layout of the land taking you through desert washes, up hillsides and past desert vegetation. The golf course is known for its generous landing areas, two lakes and numerous sand bunkers. Keep on the lookout for desert animals that roam the course. Bobcats and Havalina have been seen from time to time. Golf Club of Estrella is deemed a high-end course with not high-end prices, well worth the addition to any golfers’ itinerary. The course is managed by Troon Golf and is rated one of the best desert courses to play in Arizona.
