Course Highlights
Troon North consistently impresses with flawless greens, well-maintained fairways, and a challenging desert layout framed by stunning Arizona scenery. Attentive staff and strong overall value make this one of Phoenix's top public course experiences.

Pinnacle at Troon North represents a stunning, challenging golf experience blended into the high Desert's natural beauty with steep arroyos, natural washes and forests of saguaros and desert foliage. Portions of some fairways are hidden behind boulders and hills. Huge greens surrounded by large bunkers and sloping terrain challenge golfers on every approach shot.

A round of golf on the Pinnacle Course at the Troon North Golf Club kicks off on a par-4 hole that measures 392 yards from the Black tees. Things get crazy long on the 16th hole, a par 5 that plays to 609 yards from the Black tees. By that measure, the 18th hole will be a cakewalk, at par-4 and just 447 yards from the Black tee to the clubhouse.

After finishing the Pinnacle Course at Troon North Golf Club, head to the Grille, which offers a view of others trying to complete the course you've conquered, as well as the desert.

All greens were punched and no warning or alert was published onsite or on golfnow during time of booking. Disappointed to play through that and also have a round that took more than 4h30min on a weekday.

Everything you expect and more

To start the week, my clubs were supposed to get to Arizona the day before I played Troon, they never made it and the staff did everything they could to make it right, they even let my gf ride for free and waived the rider fee, they also gave me a discount on rental clubs. I absolutely loved this golf course. They’re renovating the monument course so we played the old layout. (Front 9 - monument, back 9 - pinnacle), everything about the course was perfect. Greens were flawless as well as the tee boxes and fairways. Speaking of the greens they were lightning fast and the course is super narrow through unbelievable scenery. If I’m ever out here again from New Jersey this is going to be my first stop.

Incredible Scenic Course

Played an early time when the temps were a bit cooler. It was a beautiful day and the course was magical. My only feedback is that they need better signage to guide players around the course. It was very confusing at times, such as how to get to the first tee and where to go after the turn. This was relatively minor though in the grand scheme of things.

Troon Monument day

Course was in excellent shape. Traps, greens and fairways well conditioned. This course is not easy. Multiple desert hazards on some holes forcing some to lay up more frequently then normal. Just be sure you are up for a challenge if you choose to play this venue.

Simply Perfect

From the moment we pulled into the parking lot/bag drop it was obvious the experience will be incredible. As a person who pays attention to very little things like the way employees are dressed to how the greens are maintained. I could not find anything to ‘complain/ point out’. Staff was extremely vigilant of where we were (remembered our names) and what our needs might be, and were there to assist.

Excellent course, great condition, great staff.

My wife and I played on our recent trip to Arizona and we both agreed that it was our favourite course in the area. Josh, our caddy was excellent and it made the experience as first time players of the course much more enjoyable.

Beautiful scenery, and perfect playing conditions.

The pro shop is dangerously stocked with souvenirs from the course.

We thoroughly ourselves and will be back!

Great Grass

The course was in unbelievable condition. The grass was perfect on every square inch of the course. I will say that the Pinnacle course is more difficult than the Monument course, You get what you pay for.

Inconsistent pacing, but nice

(Pinnacle course) The course conditions were absolutely fabulous—easily one of the best-manicured courses I’ve played. The fairways were pristine, the greens rolled fairly true, and the overall upkeep was top-tier.

The layout is both challenging and rewarding, favoring a target-golf style that demands accuracy. If you don’t hit it straight, you’ll find yourself in trouble. One key thing to note: you do not return to the clubhouse after nine holes. So if you were hoping for a bathroom break or a quick snack at the turn, you’re out of luck—the next restroom isn’t until the 15th tee.

Pacing & Flow: While we finished in 4 hours and 30 minutes, the pace felt inconsistent. Playing as a threesome, we were frequently pushing a foursome ahead while a twosome trailed behind us. This created an awkward rhythm—sometimes feeling rushed to hit a shot, only to wait for the group ahead to clear. Given the 10-minute tee time intervals and the premium price point, you’d expect a smoother flow of play.
