Quintero Golf Club
Quintero Golf Club sprawls across the high Sonoran desert, bordering Lake Pleasant. It is tucked away in the Hieroglyphic Mountains, but still conveniently located less than an hour northwest of Phoenix. Acres of protected Federal Lands surround the course, further enhancing its secluded feel. Rees Jones and Steve Weisser designed the golf course.
Quintero Golf Club sprawls across the high Sonoran desert, bordering Lake Pleasant. It is tucked away in the Hieroglyphic Mountains, but still conveniently located less than an hour northwest of Phoenix. Acres of protected Federal Lands surround the course, further enhancing its secluded feel. Rees Jones and Steve Weisser designed the golf course. He deftly incorporated the rolling hills and valleys as well as hundreds of native cacti and trees including Saguaro, Ocotillo, and Acacia. The dramatic elevation changes guarantee that a flat lie is hard to find. The course is undoubtedly a formidable test but with as many as nine tees per hole, it is accessible to a wide range of skill levels. Quintero G.C. is popular not only for the quality of the design but also for the scenery provided by the mountain views on every hole and the lush landscaping.

- Best golf course in Arizona! It is the perfect mix of a fun challenging golf course and the desert landscape is hard to beat. A group of my friends and I stayed at the luxury condos on property and had a private chef make the most amazing food. Truly an amazing experience overall.
- FALSE ACCUSATION OF SHOPLIFTING!!!! I used to love this place. My foursome wanted to golf at We Ko Pa, but I insisted on showing off Qunitero. What a mistake!!! After the 15 minute drive to the practice area/first tee we had played the first hole and had just hit our approach shots on Hole 2 when I was rudely asked to return to the clubhouse. Not my foursome, just me - and they wouldnt tell me why!! So I drove all the way back in HIGH ANXIETY. They then proceeded to falsely accuse an elderly man in my party of shoplifting a divot tool when in truth he took a business card that was placed beside the cash register. Another 15 min drive out to return to my party and now all of our rounds had been ruined. ABSOLUTELY APPALLING!!! The guy that came to get me from the course was SO RUDE!!! So, $400 of golf wasted and they didnt even stick around to apologize after our round!!! I am SO SO SO embarrassed and disappointed. We will NOT be returning to Quintero - truly SAD!
- Well worth the drive from anywhere in Phoenix. Amazing desert views. Terrain was immaculate. Staff was courteous. Reading older reviews, yes, the greens are fast. Fairways are in great shape. You won't be able to pick out a favorite hole; they're all awesome. I like the par 3's that drop in elevation. Fun! I didn't get a chance to hit the range but for maybe a minute. I think their range balls are better than any other club in AZ. Course plays about 4 hours and you do get cell phone reception! Played 8.7.15.
