Private Golf Course - Historic private desert course, one of the first in Arizona
Cole Nisson
Desert Forest is often called the original “desert golf” course, and you can see why. Instead of forcing water or lush landscaping, it embraces the natural terrain. The result is a layout that feels rugged, authentic, and beautifully minimalist. Fairways are narrow, greens are quick, and accuracy is a must. It’s not the most forgiving course, but it’s rewarding for players who enjoy a true test of golf. The quiet, natural setting makes it peaceful as well—you really feel like you’re out in the desert, playing golf the way it was meant to be there.

One of the most challenging golf courses there is but very fun if you can handle some lost balls and crazy lines off the tee. Range is nice and clubhouse is good.

Very nice course I've never played. Private members only. My daughter does high school golf practice here and says it is great.

I called and spoke to Mike on the phone - he hung up on me while I was asking for assistance. I was incredibly kind on the phone despite him cutting me off, only to get hung up on. I've never golfed here, but I definitely won't after being treated like that over a simple phone call.

Really enjoyed my first time to Desert Forest. One of the more challenging tracks I have ever played. Just out of overseed so the grass was lush, and the greens were fast and true. I am looking forward to the next time, I feel like I will have a better idea of where I need to be to put the ball in better position for the next shot, some deceiving angles & visuals. Had a great time!! ⛳️
