Start with not one, not two, but SIX private Championship Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Courses with six distinctive clubhouses. Tennis on three different surfaces, a state-of-the-art Spa and Fitness Center. Even on-site dining venues for every taste.

Welcome to Desert Mountain, a gated, 8,000-acre residential and recreational community nestled within the high Sonoran Desert landscape in the foothills of north Scottsdale.

Recognized as the world's "Best Golf Community" (Robb Report), Desert Mountain is distinguished by the preservation of its natural desert surroundings and the spectacular Desert Southwest architecture of its clubhouses and homes. Nicklaus himself calls Desert Mountain "one of the highlights of my career as a golf course designer". The Renegade and Cochise courses consistently rank in the national golf magazines' top 100 lists. Styles of play range from dramatic elevation changes to rolling fairways reminiscent of Scottish links. And by the way, the world-renowned Jim Flick is the Director of Instruction.
