A lifestyle defined by recreation, ease and elevated living.

With more than 300 days of sunshine each year, Scottsdale has earned its reputation as one of America’s premier golf destinations. From iconic resort courses to exclusive private clubs, each community offers its own distinctive blend of championship golf, luxury living, and breathtaking Sonoran Desert scenery.

Whether you’re looking for a vibrant golf community with an active social calendar or a quiet private club tucked beneath the mountains, there’s a course—and a neighborhood—to match nearly every lifestyle.

Some communities have become local legends. Desert Mountain is home to seven Jack Nicklaus Signature courses and is considered one of the country’s premier private golf destinations. Silverleaf Club pairs world-class golf with one of Scottsdale’s most prestigious luxury neighborhoods, while Grayhawk Golf Club has welcomed PGA Tour and NCAA championship events, making it a favorite among both residents and visiting golfers.

Public favorites like Troon North and Camelback Golf Club showcase the dramatic beauty of desert golf, while intimate clubs such as Whisper Rock and Ancala offer members a more private, relaxed experience.

Whether your priority is championship golf, spectacular mountain views, walkability, or simply living in a beautiful community where golf is part of everyday life, Scottsdale offers an unmatched variety of choices.
