QUINTERO GOLF CLUB (928) 501-1500
Arizona golf course review
Quintero Golf Club in Peoria is one of Arizona's premier layouts and golf facilities. This Troon managed property features a spectacular Rees Jones layout that offers breathtaking
desert mountain scenery along a rolling terrain with formidable elevation changes from tee to green. The images in this review speak for themselves – this is a special golf
course!
The Clubhouse ifeatures a pro shop and restaurant and lounge, with adjacent event, tournament/outing facilities. Quintero Golf Club provides an exceptionally beautiful
environment and all of the services needed for memorable wedding or event . Practice facilities include a targeted grass range, short game area with sand bunker plus putting
green.
There are 5 sets of tees designed to provide opportunities for golfers of all skill levels to enjoy a round here. The Black (tips) measure 7249 yards and play to a challenging slope
of 148. Alternate sets include the Gold tees that measure 6875 yards/143 slope, Silver tees at 6437 yards with a 137 slope, the Copper tees at 5807 yards with a slope of 127 for
men and 147 for ladies, and the Jade tees measuring 5043 yards with a 126 slope for women hitting from the forward tees. Golfers are invited to mix tee boxes (such as a
Black/Gold combo) with all info provided on the scorecard. Sprinkler heads are measured to the center of the green and 100, 150 and 200 yard markers are also posted on all par
fours and fives along the cart paths.
Golfers will encounter several tremendously elevated tee areas – with tee boxes often terraced into the hillsides like a cascading waterfall. Those afraid of elevation changes will
find a challenge here! From the tips, gold and silver tees, players will encounter numerous carries over desert canyons and arroyos. The copper and jade tees are significantly
more playable. The fairways are usually ample, and most often there is a good amount of room greenside to recover from slightly errant approach shots.
Whether you are a novice or experienced player, the manicured conditioning and superb desert mountain landscape make it worth the drive from Phoenix to play a round here.
This course has garnered numerous awards including
- One of the best par 5 golf courses in the U.S.
- One of America's 100 greatest public courses
