Gold Canyon Golf Club

Gold Canyon offers 36 holes of true desert golf. The sidewinder course is fairly quirky and unimpressive, but still a nice course for individuals looking for a quality rate. The star is the Dinosaur course, which is one of the best and most dramatic desert courses in the valley. With towering saguaros, deep ravines and vistas of The Superstition Mountains, the Dinosaur course is on one of the best pieces of land in the Phoenix area. Furthermore, the Dinosaur course would certainly rank higher if not for the 1 hour plus drive from Phoenix or Scottsdale. The clubhouse needs some updating and is very old school and has an adobe style restaurant and lounge.
