About Quintero Golf Club

Quintero Golf Club, located about an hour northwest of Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport, is one of the most scenic golf courses in the Valley of the Sun. While generally a daily-fee course, it does have a small handful of casita rentals for stay-and-play packages. These casitas, located within the community's Entrada properties, feature two large bedrooms with full bathrooms each, and a private patio with the option for outdoor dining. The executive Loft has a large living area with pool table. Guests have access to the Quintero pool, jacuzzi and grilling area. Located in the Hieroglyphic Mountains, Quintero Golf Club was designed by Rees Jones and is a popular pick for the best golf course in the valley. Within 15 minutes is the Lake Pleasant Marina and Scorpion Bay Marina.

Nice but not worth the money. Way over priced

Took a client. Wouldn't do it again. Greens were way to hard. Ball hit and rolled. You have to drive your cart for awhile just to get to the practice area and first tee. Way over priced. In the middle of no where. Course doesn't read on your Car GPS

The layout was great with a lot of elevation changes and tight fairways loaded with bunkers

I really like the challenge of the layout- fairways and greens were super but the sand traps had rocks in them and the 6-8 foot deep bunkers had very little sand- not enough to easily get the ball out. My cart died , we called in but no one came out to replace it, fortunately the paired up person let me ride with him.

Scenic beauty

Incredible course. A bit of a drive to get to the course but well worth it. Every hole is scenic. Enough challenges throughout the course to keep it exciting and fun. Unfortunately the sand bunkers were lacking enough sand to properly play them...I know it's best to avoid them. The greens were extremely hard and fast, it was near impossible to get a ball to hold. Overall for the price paid through Golfnow you can't beat it.

The course has a challenging layout. The greens are fast and the fairways are lush. The wind blew all day which added to the difficulty.

Every hole is a visual delight and a beautiful golf hole. Challenging elevations and undulating greens. Down hill down gain are very quick. A fun course. Could be the best in the Phoenix area. Well worth the drive.

Amazing Scenery, tough course

If you're looking for golf with some views, Quintero Golf and CC is your place. If your looking for a friendly course that allows you to miss the fairway and score well, not going to happen. If you miss the Fairway or the grass in front of you then you are in for a long day. Every par 3 plays downhill, fun to play but in my opinion not very realistic.

My Fav

This is far and away the nicest course I've ever played. The way the desert and course blend together is absolutely beautiful. Each hole is unique and none are "squeezed in" to fit the layout. I was a single playing behind several foursomes and the Marshall found a way to get me to some open holes and come back to the ones I missed. It's kicked my butt twice now and I've loved every second of it!

Could be the best in Arizona !

The cart guys kept saying this is the best course in Arizona. In my opinion it is NOT however it could be if they would simply speed up the time it is taking to resolve the terrible bunker conditions. You must avoid the green side bunkers at all cost. I suggest you get a zero bounce 58*-60* wedge if you want any chance out of them. Most greens were very nice but a few had to many old ball marks. A very fun and hard course. I would be happy to go back. Great par 3's Great Views. Worth the drive.

Excellent but Challenging course

Excellent price thru Golf Now. Awesome Staff (friendly and helpful). Very Challenging course, food was excellent at the turn, awesome elevation holes. Pace was a little slow due to 1 person (in the group of 3) in front of us. Not for your average player, a long drive from Scottsdale but should be played at least once if your visiting the Phoenix area.

Perfect weather played from tips.

Good driving range, but you have to drive 5 mins on slow golf carts to get to it from parking area. Putting green too sloped to judge speed of greens.

Excellent GPS marked to the pin.

Every shot from tee to green is a postcard picture. Most beautiful course in Phoenix area.

Must play over and over and over.

Not to be missed

My son and I played this course because we had heard good things about it. In every respect it lived up to its billing. It is a fabulous layout, well maintained and in excellent shape. The staff are superb and obviously well trained in customer service. The course is very challenging but fair. It was a treat to play. Although the course is located a bit further away than many it is well worth the drive. I'd go back in a heartbeat.

Beautiful Beast

Having played many of the high end/desert courses in Scottsdale/Phoenix I was anxious to visit Quintero. And it did not let me down. The views are stunning, the greens were true and very quick and the fairways and rough perfect. Many of the true desert courses in the area leave some ability to play a wayward shot off of the fairway/rough- from the desert. Quintero does not and leaves little room for error so bring your straight ball. Only drawback is drive to and from 1st and 18th tees and smaller clubhouse facility. Course more than makes up for those items. Great course-quickly became one of my top 5.

Quintero-Longest day of golf

Teed off at 1:30pm finished at dark (7:00pm). I understand March is a busy month for golf but don`t cram in extra "walk on" tee times. 5 1/2 hours is far too long for a round of golf. Luckily we got a decent twilight rate ($160) otherwise, wouldn`t recommend the course. On the positive side, the course was in great condition.

Sand traps aren't very good. Need sand, too many of them have hard sand or dirt. That is the only bad thing I can say about the whole experience.

Love Hate Relationship

This is the second year I have visited the Phoenix area for my golf outing and I will always include Quintero as one of my favorite golf experiences. My level of golf is such that the course usually kicks my tail, but I love every bit of it. The course is challenging but it is so beautiful, you just don't mind.

Worth the drive

Second time playing Quintero. Absolutely worth the drive if you are staying in Scottsdale. Great elevation changes and tee boxes to fit any handicap. One of my favorite courses here. Great deals available on GolfNow. Not a full clubhouse, so don't plan on meals or drinks there. But a great golf experience.

Long drive but check it out at least once.

Long drive from Phoenix. 6 - 8 degrees colder there than in the valley. Out in the middle of nowhere but worth the drive at least once. Great condition but greens too fast for my liking.
