Desert Canyon Golf Club

Located in Fountain Hills, Arizona, Desert Canyon Golf Club - originally named Fountain Hills Golf Club - remains a consistent favorite among the state's top golfing destinations. As the town’s first golf course, it offers a distinctive desert golf experience, combining clever elevation changes with breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and valley. The stunning vistas are present throughout the course, and golfers can catch a glimpse of the world-famous fountain, which makes its grand appearance at the top of every hour.

Desert Canyon Golf Club also boasts a range of premium amenities, including a driving range, dedicated chipping and putting areas, and a well-stocked golf shop to ensure you're fully prepared for your round.

Signature Holes

One of the most demanding challenges at Desert Canyon is the 15th hole, a par 4 that epitomizes desert golf at its finest. Featuring a dogleg design and considerable distance, it's ranked as the toughest hole on the course. Success here requires strategic thinking and precise club selection to stay on the fairway and set yourself up for a par.

But don’t relax just yet - hole 16, a par 3, presents its own challenge with a steep downhill approach and bunkers tightly guarding the green. Its deceptive layout makes it just as tricky as the 15th, keeping golfers on their toes.
