We-Ko-Pa Golf Club - Saguaro Course

The Saguaro course at We-Ko-Pa Golf Club is one of the newer golf courses in Scottsdale�s golf resort corridor, having opened at the beginning of 2006. A Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw design, it�s not a golf course where you can swing hesitantly: You need to be sure of your golf shots, and commit to them. Fairways and greens are maintained in excellent condition, and it�s a walker�s dream of a golf course.
