SunRidge Canyon Golf Club is one of the most scenic desert golf courses in the state of Arizona. Located in Fountain Hills 30 minutes east of Scottsdale, this desert jewel will dazzle you with descending elevation changes as you make your way down the canyon followed by rapid ascending elevation changes as you rise back up the mountain.

SunRidge Canyon plays just over 6800 yards from the tips and par is 71. But the back nine plays uphill so add another 300 or so yards to the distance. “Take one-to-two extra clubs on those holes,” says head golf pro Jeff Newell. “And if the pin is in the front of the green, play it as though it were in the back so give yourself another five yards.”
