About
Rancho Manana Golf Club has one of the prettier courses in Cave Creek-Scottsdale, located high in the Sonora and combining vistas with testing golf. It offers a par-70 championship golf course laid out over elevations that change dramatically right up alongside the untouched desert and the indigenous wildlife that comes with that, as well as an old-school dude ranch that has been incorporated into the golf resort. Low-handicap golfers will be challenged by the golf course, but it's not so tough that other levels of golfer will be turned away.
The Rancho Manana Golf Club offers golf to the public and is conveniently located just 20 minutes off the highway.
After a round of golf at the Rancho Manana Golf Club, stick around for around and maybe some eats at the Tonto Bar & Grill, which has received several awards and is listed among Arizona's top 100 restaurants.

Golfer Reviews
Great course. Seems short, but plays carefully.
Tee boxes are the 1st thing I can think of. Gotta be better than that. The rest is all good. Greens, fairways, water! Bunkers with playable sand. Ill be back for sure. Hope the boxes are better then.
Beautiful Course
Course was in excellent shape. Had just been overseeded so it was cartpath only. Pace of play was good we got done in 4 hours and 10 minutes. Was starting to get backed up, but the Ranger took care of a slow group. Greens were a little slow because of the overseeding.
Fun course and less $ than others nearby
This course is one of my favorites. Makes you smile. some unique holes, pretty, not long but many “target” shots. Usually a little more reasonable cost than nearby courses. Views are excellent.
Always enjoys the challenge
This is a fun course that requires some course management and has lots of elevation changes. It's not too difficult but you need to put the ball in the right places. And having drinks afterwards at Tonto Bar and Grill is a bonus.
Excellent Course
We have played a few times at RM however this last couple times have been absolutely amazing! Course is pristine, people very friendly and inviting, Tontos is excellent for after golf snacks and drinks as well as a great lunch! Highly recommend cautiously because I don’t want everyone to go there and slow pace or drive price up!! We will be back a lot in the future!!
Challenging for Moderate to high handicappers
This is a beautiful course that really challenges your accuracy. It forces even the moderate player to use hybrid fairway clubs and irons. Picturesque views and interwoven in the hills and canyons.
Want a challenge, come play this course.
Some fun elevation/view holes
Good layout with some challenging fairways, Fairway grass was longer, just coming off reseeding. Greens were clean and rolled true.
What a beautiful course!!
This is now one of my favorite courses in the area. Beautiful layout challenging enough for me and my friends. The "Helpful Hints" in back of the scorecard was a great idea and was truly helpful specially for the first time players of this beautiful course. We will be back for sure. Well done !!
Overall playable tight course with small greens.
With greens this small there should be no reason they they shouldn’t be rolling true and faster. The only other negative would be it would have been nice to know that the driving range faces due east. Couldn’t even se my ball fight, poor design choice. I don’t imagine that they get many second takes for early morning range balls .
Always love a round at Rancho Manana. Fairways look great after overseed. Greens need some attention. Overall, course in good condition. Pace of play was appropriate for Cart Path Only. Had some minor back-ups on front 9 but able to finish in 4.5 hours - just in time for reservation at Tonto Bar & Grill.
Beautiful scenery
Great course. Staff very friendly and helpful. First time playing this course and we will be back. Pace of play was good, considering cart path only as fall maintenance was just completed. Allot of elevated tee boxes overlooking the valley.
Great Short Course
Rancho is a great short golf course with nice views and elevations.
