The Foothills Golf Club is a very scenic course. Basically a desert landscape set up against South Mountain, it stretches out to almost 7000 yards from the tips. Always in great condition, a good score here is one that is well deserved. The fairways are narrow, with a cut of rough and then desert ready to snatch any off-line shots. The greens vary in size, but most are well bunkered and some are elevated. The slopes are not that extreme on the greens, but the speed brings out the need to be careful out there. Conveniently located just 20 minutes south of the airport in Phoenix, The Foothills is a scenic and challenging play that is a good airport course at the beginning or end of your golf outing—or both for that matter!

Open to outside play, all three courses are available with seasonal greens fees.
