Golf Club of Estrella
11800 S Golf Club DrAbout an hour from Scottsdale in the foothills of the Sierra Estrella Mountains is the Golf Club of Estrella. Jack Nicklaus II designed this modern, imaginative desert gem.
The upscale daily-fee Golf Club of Estrella offers challenging play in the midst of breathtaking desert beauty. Fairways roll across the natural contours of the land, while elevated tees unveil views of the Sierra Estrella Mountains.
The design is challenging yet forgiving, and always spectacular. The terrain on this 7,139-yard is diverse. "I want people to step away from my course having used every club in their bag," he says.
Nicklaus added wide landing areas and large, rolling greens to make the course playable for golfers of all levels. The course accommodates golfers with varying skills by offering several tee placements and low-cut rough. Estrella is a simple but impressive golf course that, from first look to last, is visitor-friendly and immaculately clean.
