Love to Golf? Paradise Valley Houses Great Courses

by Russ Lyonrealty If you love to golf, you will definitely love Paradise Valley, Arizona. The exclusive real estate of Paradise Valley is tucked against beautiful Camelback Mountain near Scottsdale and Phoenix, has some of the most scenic golf courses in the entire state of Arizona.

Let?s start with Mountain Shadows Golf Club. Located in the foothills of Camelback Mountain, Mountain Shadows just might be one of the most gorgeous courses in the state. This 3,081-yard, par-56 executive course, which gives the illusion of playing right into the mountain, is landscaped with lush oleanders and tall palm trees that help visually guide you through your play. PS: If your tee-time is late in the day, you could be lucky enough to witness an awe-inspiring sunset as you finish out your round on the 18th hole.

If we cruise on over to Tatum Boulevard, we?ll find the Paradise Valley Country Club, home to the Paradise Valley Golf Course, an 18-hole par-72 course featuring over 6,800 yards of amazing golf. Opened for play in 1954, the course was designed by noted golf course architect Lawrence Marion Hughes.

Meanwhile, the JW Marriott Camelback Inn has 36 holes of championship golf that are sure to please golf aficionados. The Padre Course has water holes, challenging bunkers and mature trees, all spread across its 6,903 yards, and here?s an interesting factoid: Its 18th hole was once voted the ?Best Water Hole? by Arizona Golf Magazine. The Indian Bend Course is a more traditional American-links course with sensational mountain backgrounds as well as eucalyptus- and palm tree-lined fairways. Formidable, but also very laidback, this par-72 course offers golfers of all skill levels a great day on the links.

What else? How ?bout Stonecreek Golf Club on East Paradise Village Parkway?this links-style 18-hole course boasts five separate holes with water hazards. In 1989, the course was redesigned by Arthur Hills to maximize its speedy greens and hilly fairways. Each year, the club hosts the LPGA Mitsubishi Pro Am along with a number of local tournaments.
