LOS CABALLEROS GOLF CLUB RATED AMONG WORLD'S BEST COURSES

For more than 20 years, seasoned golfers have saddled up to the challenges of the Los Caballeros Golf Club, an 18-hole championship course surrounding a ranch resort. The Greg Nash-designed golf course offers breathtaking desert splendor and stunning views of Vulture Peak and the Bradshaw Mountains at the historic Rancho de los Caballeros.

Acclaimed by Golf Digest as one of the top 20 courses in Arizona and Golf Magazine’s Silver Medal award-winner, as well as the “Top 100 Golf Resorts in the World” by Travel + Leisure Golf readers, Los Caballeros Golf Club is a masterpiece in design and presents some of the most challenging play under the Arizona sun.

Lay of the Land
Two sparkling lakes are carved out among the serene 7,014-yard course that offers four different tees for a variety of playing levels. The front nine is a classic desert layout with wide landing areas and ample greens, providing all the challenges of desert-style target golf.

Golfers can test their mettle on the hilly back nine, which requires every club in the golfer's bag. Natural desert rough contrasts with lush Bermuda fairways overseeded with perennial rye to provide a deep green course all year round.

The course’s signature 13th hole features numerous elevation changes, a well-protected rolling green and is consistently rated as one of the most challenging par five holes in the state.

Los Caballeros offers a scenic driving range, groomed putting greens and a short game practice area to complete the total golfing experience. The course remains open all year, while the guest ranch closes for the summer and reopens in early October.
