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.

Great Course

Don’t know where to start. The course is beautiful. I golfed the Boulders and Troon North the week before. Quintero is top notch. The staff were great. I needed a putter to use for the round. No problem. I really like the German guy in the pro shop. The course has a great layout. Tough but fair if you play smart. Every hole was different. If you get a chance to golf this go for it you will not be disappointed. In my top three courses in Phoenix.

Worth every penny, but maybe not right after overseeding

The views alone, especially from all four par 3s, are worth the price of admission alone. Every single staff member couldn't have been nicer, especially Denny from Germany who was the starter that day. The course was like lush green carpet carved out between desert hills (I'm from Colorado, so they are most certainly not mountains... :) The multiple tees (5-6) could make the course as long or as short as you like. All four par 3s had dramatic down hill shots. The course had other significant elevation changes as well and offered "take your breath" moments frequently. Complimentary range balls and a true rolling putting green were great for warm up. The only down side is that although they completed over-seeding a couple weeks back, the fairways were a bit fuzzy that day which made some shots in the middle of the fairway make you feel like you were playing from light rough. Also, the greens were not in good shape....a lot of sand and did not roll very well. Unless you are coming from the northwest valley, plan a significant drive time to get to the course. However, if I could play there again at any time of year including October, I would do it in a heartbeat.

Great Layout!

This course has a great layout with amazing views! Fairways are decently wide, make sure you stay in them though or you will he paying the price. I played the combos gold and tips and didn’t find it too difficult in terms of length. All the par 3’s are pretty long but all but 1 are from super elevated tee boxes. I played as a single on a Monday morning 8am tee time and only passed 1 group in front of me. Only complaint is that some parts of the fringes on almost every green has bare dirt/browning on them. Didn’t bother me too much, would still highly recommend and will be back to play when in the Phoenix area!

Great Course in the middle of nowhere!

This course is really good. Lots of fun to play.....challenging but fair. Good chances for birdies but you have to control your ball as it's a typical target golf course in the desert. The practice range is perfect. For those of you who appreciate a good quality practice facility, this place has it! The grass is perfect. You can beat balls for hours and barely feel any impact on your joints because the grass is so nice. Views are great for every hole. Dramatic drop offs on several par 3's from all of the tee boxes. Hard to believe the course is celebrating it's 20th year as there are only 6 homes on the course and there's still no permanent clubhouse. But I'm going to keep taking advantage of this hidden gem every time I'm in Phoenix until development eventually catches up and this place goes private.

Sunday Funday!

I have e been playing several course in The Phoenix area. Raven, Talking Stick, Aguila, Lonetree, Las Sendas, Trilogy and notices that my handicap has gone way down. I chose to play Quintero today because this course will bring you back to reality quick!

The fairways and fast greens are in great condition. Today was the first day open after overseed and things are looking good. There is still some work to do around the fringes as I noticed several areas in poor condition. The bunker play was terrible! I never noticed before but the sand was large grain and since it was being heavily watered, wet too.

The price was a little high for most players but I did not mind. Overall my experience was good and I was not let down. Quintero will test you game from the gold black combo.

Have fun!

True Desert Golf Experience

From the helpful staff who were welcoming and really wanted us to enjoy this experience to the max. Practice area good. Not a large putting area but is definitely reflective of the green speed. Layout diverse and some beautiful backdrops. Yep, super challenging...just makes us want to come back!

Best Around!

This course is everything people say it is. Middle of summer course condition is the best I have played all summer long.....greens, fairways, and tee boxes are top notch. If you don't play this course before the end of the summer, you're cheating yourself out of a really fun golf experience. Scenery is unreal...be prepared for a really good golf challenge. Having course knowledge is a huge advantage here.
