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.

Fantastic Layout, Fairways/Greens Excellent & Bunkers Horrific

Quintero is one of my favorite golf courses. Grass was in superb condition, especially for late summer in the Phoenix area. Awesome Rees Jones design. Pace of play was really good as well. Only negative were the sand bunkers, which were almost completely devoid of soft sand so it was practically impossible to get your sand wedge under the ball. Had to chip out.

I recommend this course to everyone. With so many tee boxes all levels of golfers can play here. It’s worth the drive and the the price. Once you see and play this track you will want to come back again and again.

Excellent value

Wonderful course with nice layout. Fair, yet challenging. Biggest issue I had was that people are not repairing ball marks on greens. For this caliber of course, that is unacceptable

Great atmosphere!

Still a little overpriced for August and how far away from the city it is. Course was in great shape for August, no dead spots in fairways. Tough course with lots of O.B. plus the crazy amount of bunkers. Definitely didn’t score close to my GHIN number. Bring extra golf balls! Beautiful course, not sure I’d pay the peak season rate, great experience no less.

Loud Doorbell Chime

The course is in great shape especially considering it is summer. The greens roll true. The GPS on the carts will "ping" with a message to remind you to fix your ball marks. There are several greens with multiple ball mark scars. Honestly people if you are to lazy or can't bend over to fix your ball mark then don't play and ruin the experience for other people. Despite the scars the greens putted smoothly. The GPS will also sound out with a loud "doorbell warning chime" at times. I kept saying "come in" but no one ever did. The carts have GPS and an ice chest with two bottles of water. There is also a couple of comfort stations with water and ice. Other than the two inconsiderate idiots who jumped nearly a half hour ahead of their tee time to get in front of me and played from the wrong tees and slow, the experience was excellent.

A must play!

This course lives up to its reputation. Some pretty tough holes. Well taken care of and all the elevated par 3s were magical. I can't think of anything to say negative other than two beverages were 23 bucks from the cart lady. The help was very respectful and the couple we played with made our anniversary even better. Thanks Neil and Ashley.
