Course Highlights
Quintero's dramatic elevation changes and uniquely designed holes make it one of Arizona's most celebrated layouts. Welcoming staff and well-maintained conditions consistently reward golfers who make the scenic drive out.

Rating 75.3

Located in the desert just north of Phoenix and Scottsdale, the golf course at Quintero Golf Club is a challenge but with up to as many as nine tees per hole, it can accommodate golfers of all different abilities and handicaps. The rolling, desert terrain of the course features dramatic elevation changes for interesting play. The golf course's design has wide fairways and plenty of water hazards and sand bunkers. The most difficult hole is the par-5 8th hole, which plays uphill with three large bunkers alongside the right side of the lay-up area. Another difficult but noteworthy hole is Quintero Golf Club's third, which has a scenic lake to the left that sometimes tricks golfers into playing close to it with their tee shot for an easier second shot to the green.

Excellent golf with amazing views.

Worth the drive out…staff was amazing. The course, including practice area, was in tour level condition. Elevated tee boxes added to the experience, above and beyond the norm often found on a desert golf course.

Great Public Track Outside Phoenix

Loves - great condition, great layout, possibly the fastest & hardest greens I've ever played, we were first off the tee in the AM so we set the pace, staff was fantastic and friendly, love that it's out in the middle of nowhere and way outside the city.

Hates- pretty overpriced in my opinion compared to other $350 courses I have played. Also I am a 9 handicap and didn't break 100 for the first time in probably 5 years. The course and greens are tough! I'm a pretty good putter and probably had 8 three putts.

Definitely put this one on the list if you are in Phoenix!

Spectacular in Every Way

I would rank Quintero as one of the Top 3 public courses in Arizona in terms of the imaginative layout, the immaculate conditioning, how you are treated and the fun that you will have. The quartet of par 3s are fabulous, with panoramic views from the tees of three of them. It can be pricey but worth it. Be sure to pick the correct set of tees for your driving length and overall abilities or your experience may suffer.

Best public course in AZ!

I was on vacation and played Quintero for my first time. This track will be on my playlist every time I come back to golf in AZ. It’s like a course you might expect to play a Charity Match with Phil Michelson and Tiger! All I can say is it’s a fabulous track and a must play when in AZ for all golfers!

Had the luxury & pleasure to play Quintero golf course in NW Phoenix in early December'21. It was a great experience. The course layout was magnificent. Condition was excellent. Staff was super friendly and very helpful. One of the best places that I ever played - Will definitely be back!!

Thank You, the Team at Quintero!!
