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.

About

Holes 18
Type Semi-Private
Style Desert/Traditional
Par 72
Length 7249 yards
Slope 148
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.

Best course in the valley

fairways were 100%! Greens were 100%! Incredible conditions, especially when it’s 110 out. Greens are FAST and smooth! I’m not sure who’s paying the water bill at this place but it’s worth it.

Super nice course

Beautiful course…great condition. Slow play due to cart path only restrictions after hard rain but pace picked up a bit after cart path restrictions were lifted. Just a real nice course…all around.

Excellent course

Quintero is an excellent course with very challenging layout and difficulties. It’s a long drive from Scottsdale but worth the drive. Course is kept in an excellent condition with lush fairways, fast greens and you can choose from 6 different combination of tees. Views are excellent and the course will test all your golf skills. Temp was in mid 90s in mid August but muggy. Service in the pro-shop and in the cafe was good. The only complain is slow pace as it took 5 hrs to play all 18 holes as threesome. Practice area is one of the best in AZ. Sand bunkers were little harder and that could be bc of recent rain. Overall, I enjoyed this course and would definitely go again.

Flys Flys and More Flys

Before you go ask about the Fly issue. Can't explain just how bad the Flys were on this cause. Wouldn't play it for free under the current circumstances. Call and ask before you buy.

BEST I'VE PLAYED IN PHOENIX AREA

Unbelievable course with unreal holes.....especially the Par 3s. Played almost all the Phoenix courses and in my opinion this is the best. Greens fast and smooth......incredible layout. Played Troon North this trip and The Boulders and TPC Scottsdale and they are all great but this is the best.

Overrated

If you don’t live close by, don’t play it. The staff is not the friendliest and they have many hidden fees for everything. Course was not in great shape, it was ok but not for the price. If you are in the area, there are many other courses better than Quintero and closer to town. TPC, Troon North, Wild Horse Pass, etc.

I haven't played every great course throughout the country but this was hands down the best I have personally played. Everything is topnotch from the service, amenities and the course itself. Tee to green is picturesque and was in phenomenal condition. I would highly recommend this course to anyone.

Quintero Stay and Play

Last year we played Quintero and noticed these beautiful condos on the course. We found out they were for stay and play.. So we decided, when we wanted a few days to recharge we would try them. Brian handled the details and was stellar. Checking in was easy, the condos are great and spacious. They bring your carts to the condos so it is easy for the 5 minute drive up the mountain to the first tee. Let me tell you, this course is Amazing!!!! Hard but fair,do not get in the traps.(Really). Greens roll true,fairways in great shape,and jaw dropping beauty on every hole. About halfway through the round the ranger comes by with ice cold Mango infused towels to cool you off!!! As you drive back down after your round you are greated in perfect timing by the golf course personnel who have wLked to your condo to hand you and ice water and clean your clubs,just over the top!! From the starter to the Pro shop, to the grill and the facilities, you are treated like royalty.. We will be back, and our family from Michigan is coming back too!! Best course we have ever played,thank you!!!

A must play if you’re in the Scottsdale/Phoenix area. The course was in excellent condition. The greens were receptive but fast and fairways lush. You will not be disappointed.

Best Course in the State

I thoroughly enjoy courses that do NOT have homes lining every hole. Quintero is just a jewel cause its just you and nature while providing one of the best designed courses I have ever played on.

I cannot be here enough. Please keep up the great work and keeping it special.
