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.

Now I understand why this is the top Public Course in AZ

Me and my two boys had played two great courses leading up to this Saturday round (Troon N - Pinnacle and Wickenberg Ranch), and thought "how is this course going to stand up to the incredible conditions and views the others provided us." We headed up to the practice area which is right beside the first tee. Practice range was nice and fully stocked with plenty of balls. Practice Greens were right behind the range and in great shape. Now to the tee...Well, right from the 1st tee this course provided us 18 different post cards of pure beauty. Tee boxes, fairways, greens and bunkers were all in great shape. Greens were really tough for us, but we think it was because the prior two courses rolled a bit faster than Quintero. Greens were very fair. Par 3's here are a lot of fun to play with the elevation changes. Loved hitting high iron shots and watching the ball come out of the sky and approach the green. #9 hole with the elevation change from tee to green may be the most unique hole we played in our 5 rounds. Absolutely beautiful! So many holes and surroundings I could speak of but this is not a book.

If you are looking for a course with a tremendous desert layout surrounded by mountains (Hieroglyphic Mountains), and in our opinion "the best public course in the state of AZ...Look no further. THIS IS A MUST PLAY FOR EVERY GOLFER>>>>YOU HAVE TO EXPERIENCE THIS COURSE IF REMOTELY NEAR QUINTERO!

*Only negative to this entire experience is the staff. We saw tons of videos of the Superintendent Mike Poe on You Tube which is how we found out about this course. The staff does not share Mike's approach to hospitality. From the time we pulled up and the person at the front gate rolled his eyes at us and just stared at us and didn't move, just waited for us to ask "well - what do we do bud?" This continued to the Pro Shop where we went to check in and had to wait until the three guys behind the counter stopped having their conversation about hockey before we could get some assistance. Upon heading to the carts outside we witnessed the same kid who was rude at the entrance gate get a bit rude with the person who was going to be playing in front of us. Luckily the gentleman was very savvy at handling people like this and moved on without incident. The starter this day on the first tee, Sean, saved the day as he was great. Very engaging and had a great personality. He did a great job of laying out what we should expect and things to watch for.

Favorite golf course

The conditions are amazing, every single one of the staff members was extremely friendly. Probably the best views you can get on any golf course anywhere. Well worth the drive from Scottsdale. I’ll never go back to AZ again without playing Quintero

Arizona’s Best Track

What a day. Just played the best course in Arizona. Staff was great all of them. All said Hi and what can we do for you. Course was in perfect condition. The green speeds were fast but not to fast. The scenery was dramatic at every hole. The Par 3’s were unbelievable. Find the best price . Better yet join this place and you would be in hog heaven. I played from the Senior tees my son from the tips. All I can say is we are coming back period. Thanks Quintero staff.

Stunning as always

This course never disappoints! Greens are extremely smooth, fast and beautiful. Fairways are like manufactured carpet, Perfect in every way Kama stunning views in every direction. Make sure you bring your a game here though and play 1T Box forward from where you think. I've golfed this course 4 times now and can't wait to get back the next time! There is a reason why it's the number one rated course in Arizona. Food was also great they will even bring it to you on the course.

Quintero: Peoria's "pride and joy"

This is fabulous course for almost all golfers. I say almost because there are a few of the holes were you do have to be able to hit over some type of obstacle in order to complete the hole. The golf practice range is complete with sand traps and extra balls for just sand wedge and pitch shots which is unique for a public course. Most of the time if you lose a ball when you go to find yours you will find one or two extra. Playing the longer tees makes the big elevation drop par 3's (2 total) much more fun in my opinion. The greens were in good shape and the fairways were impeccable. Overall a great course. One drawback (or positive) is that you won't have cell service most of the time so plan accordingly. The hole pictured is hole #8, a dog leg right par 5 that is uphill and very beautiful. Enjoy the scenery!!

Best Course I have Ever Played!

Quintero is easily my favorite golf course I have ever played! Each hole is unique and the views are unbeatable. I went down with a group of friends and we stayed on site in the executive loft. The experience staying there was phenomenal and the staff was great and very accomodating. The course pro, Mike Perez, is also awesome! He played a huge role in making our experience there top notch. If you make it out, make sure to try the long drinks! Just be careful, they go down pretty easy...

One of the best!

Beautiful golf course. Very challenging but doable. Practice facilities are awesome. Beer is too expensive come on guys you’re already getting enough money from us to play here. As of January 6, 2021 it wasn’t in the best condition but it is still very nice. greens roll really fast and had a weird greenish brown color.

Amazing layout. Great Views

We were fortunate to get a great rate the day before we played. Keep an eye out for discounts. With 20% promo code we basically got two for one. My son is 16. A youth rate before 2:00 would bring me back more often. Full price would’ve sent us elsewhere today.

Tremendous Golf Course

Wow! So glad we made the hour drive north from Scottsdale to play Quintero. Beautiful course in wonderful condition cut into the mountains. Greens did not look good optically (yellow brown tint) but rolled true and fast. Tee areas, fairways and rough were lush and popping green. Best collection of par 3 holes of any course that I have played. All with dramatic elevation changes, but subtly different in design so as not to get old. Elevated greens put a premium on chipping/sand shots for missed approach shots. Will definitely be back to play Quintero again!

Beautiful course/design

My family of 4 played during the Xmas holiday week - what a gorgeous course! Loved the layout - generous fairways on most holes, thus not too penal for a mild-moderately off line tee shot. Greens were fast! Ample sand, not too shallow. The par 3 elevation changes were a lot of fun, and challenging for a first time player. Generous practice facility. Expensive, but worth your money.

Awesome Course

Played this course in late October on a last minute, reasonably priced booking. Course is a bit off the beaten path but absolutely worth it! Course conditions were ideal, and layout beautiful. I would recommend this course to anyone looking for a quiet place to play. Course is semi-private, so tee times may be limited. If you find one, grab it immediately. You will not be disappointed!
