Style Desert
Par 70
Length 6016 yards
Slope 128
Rating 66.7

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.

Greens

One of the best courses I’ve played in a while. Some of the holes reminded me of Stoneridge and Prescott Valley because of the wild terrain and distance. The layout and fairways reminded me of one of the courses in Maui and now that I know that there is a resort connected to it. I will stay here and play. I would like to thank the staff for being friendly. God bless.

Great course, but didn’t realize they had aerated it

This is a very challenging course and you can lose a lot of balls! It’s beautiful as well. The only thing we didn’t realize was, they had aerated it a few days earlier and the greens were very bumpy. But they did give us an out if we wanted to, so we decided to go ahead and play. Had a great time!

Greens need TLC

Course was in generally overall good condition ; however, some tee boxes most-definitely needed leveling, while all greens were quite slow and extremely bumpy, making putting somewhat unfair.

Course was embarrassingly overbooked

I usually love Rancho. But being backed up by 4 groups starting on hole 5 is unacceptable. The entire Rancho team should be EMBARRASSED!

Either do better or find someone else to handle scheduling.

Really enjoyed the course. Loved the rolling hills and even the blind shots. Challenging, but rewarding. Will most certainly be back.

Great course! Beautiful views

First time playing at Rancho Manana after hearing about it for months since I moved here. The course is beautiful & so are the views! The only thing I would take away from this course when I played 5/31 were the greens. Putting wasn’t the greatest as there were a lot of dead spots and most of them were not smooth. Again, this is my first time playing here so I can’t say if this is normal, BUT overall I would 1000% play here again. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Thanks!

What’s up with the course condition

Majority of the greens were a mess. But this was a midweek round, perhaps that was a potential reason. Course amenities for a supposed resort course are totally missing !
