Arizona Golf Destinations


Overview of Golf Vacations in Arizona

The undisputed golfing capital of the west, Arizona's unique natural landscape of deserts, mountain ranges, and rock formations take the standard golfing experience and throw it out the window. In a league of its own, Arizona does everything on a large scale. A grand canyon and a grand time await the traveling golfer in Arizona, and with over 300 golf courses, there is a golf package that can fit any budget or schedule. An obvious favorite is the Phoenix/Scottsdale area, where golfers are often complaining that if they didn't have a family or responsibilites they would permanently reside within walking distance of the region's golf courses. Stay at the Arizona Grand Resort, where guests are encouraged to embellish their golf scores at any one of the resort's many dining venues. Kierland Golf Club competes with any course in the nation, and its adjoining Westin Kierland Golf Resort and Spa will have you forgetting your residential address within the week. Frost bite is a fabled myth in the Arizona mindset, and while most of the nation experiences ice, sleet, snow, and freezing rain, Arizona has mid sixties weather and a smug demeanor towards individuals carrying umbrellas. This state is home to some of the finest spas in the world, swimming pools and exceptional desert views, world-class dining options and mega malls, providing a plethora of options for the golfer and non-golfer alike. Bring your family, friends, clients, coworkers, and most importantly, your clubs and play 18 holes in the always sunny, Arizona.
