Located in the desert just north of Phoenix and Scottsdale, the golf course at Quintero Golf Club is a challenge but with up to as many as nine tees per hole, it can accommodate golfers of all different abilities and handicaps. The rolling, desert terrain of the course features dramatic elevation changes for interesting play. The golf course's design has wide fairways and plenty of water hazards and sand bunkers. The most difficult hole is the par-5 8th hole, which plays uphill with three large bunkers alongside the right side of the lay-up area. Another difficult but noteworthy hole is Quintero Golf Club's third, which has a scenic lake to the left that sometimes tricks golfers into playing close to it with their tee shot for an easier second shot to the green.

Another great round at Quintero

No course in the area quite like it. Staff is friendly and is worth the drive if you live in the Valley.

Must Play!

Best public course in Phoenix area in my opinion. Played today and course is absolutely perfect. Teed off after lunch and had entire course to myself. Absolutely love this place. No homes around just the desert and an incredible course. I like The Boulders and Troon North but this is my favorite. A must play!

Always worth it

It’s the best public course in the state for a reason. 4 weeks recovering from punching and could barely tell. Greens rolled true (a little slow) and the grass everywhere was green and lush. Not a dead blade of grass on property. Worth every penny of $110 for an early morning tee time. Super friendly staff and amazing warm up area. Be warned: bring bug spray or stop by the starter to coat yourself. If you are debating on spending the money, just do it and you won’t regret it!

Great course

Amazing course, best course I’ve played to date. Great fairways, greens and tee boxes. Views were amazing. Some bunkers left more to be desired- sand wasn’t too soft and 2 bunkers had standing water in them. Clean bathrooms, great real grass driving range. Overall superb course and experience

excellent, as usual.

I play this course two times a year in April. It’s always been in perfect condition. Fast greens, fantastic views, and overall just a great golf experience.
Check out the video of some local residents on the course.

Stay and Play

We had a great time staying and playing in the executive loft with the pool table. This would be a great room for 4 to stay and play a few rounds. The course is beautiful, in great shape, and off the beaten path so it feels exclusive and private. The flowing water on a few holes was gorgeously worked into the natural landscape and made for a beautiful hazard. Brian made sure our accommodations were comfortable and our golf was fun. The two things I would improve is tee time communication and the food on the course. There was a frost delay so our tee time was moved up, with the expectation that we would end up playing about the same time as our originally scheduled tee time. We got to the practice facility more than 1 hour ahead of our originally scheduled time, expecting we would have time to warm up. We were told people ahead of us didn’t show up and we were up next, with absolutely no time to warm up. I think this could have been communicated better. It would have been fine if we were told this would be our new tee time, we could have planned better and shown up earlier to warm up. The way it worked out, we unfortunately felt quite rushed when we thought we were showing up over an hour early. If we didn’t show up an hour early we could have missed our tee time completely because of the miscommunication. Again, the course is gorgeous though and worth the trip. My elbow was hurting and I didn’t play well, but we plan to come back injury free and enjoy the course more! The food on the course is quite lackluster, so if you are able to cook in the stay and play room that may be a better choice. Although, the corn hole, and resident donkey entertained us at the BBQ station!
