The Rancho Manana Golf Club is where Mother Nature
plays. Located in the heart of the Sonoran Desert
in historic Cave Creek, Arizona, this course features
a par 70, championship course with dramatic elevation
changes and unspoiled desert terrain. It invites
you to match your skills against nature while enjoying
the spactacular and unforgettable surrounding desert
views of Black Mountain, Skull Mesa, Elephant Butte
and the nearby Tonto National Forest. Elevated holes
present panoramic views of all of this in tranquil,
peacefulness and provide a magnificent backdrop
in every direction.
Although just 6,004 yards from the back tees, the
length for longer hitters is substituted by placing
a premium on accuracy - off the tee as well as on
approach shots. This form of distance and shot-making
makes the course enticing for all levels of golfers.
The length of the course doesn't mean you should
leave your driver at home, just know when to play
conservatively and when to let it rip. Tight fairways,
thick desert terrain, elevated greens and water
on a group of holes provide enough incentive to
play smart off the tee. Besides, the undulating
greens are tricky enough to hit out of the fairway
-- let alone a desert bush on the rocky native floor.
Many of the putting surfaces are surrounded by steep,
rolling banks that can dump shots hit just off-center,
rolling through the grass, rocks and desert. This
hidden jewel is another example of the exquisite
beauty that is Arizona and should not be missed
on your next vacation.
