Ak-Chin Southern Dunes Golf Club
publicAk-Chin Southern Dunes Golf Club is one of Arizona's most celebrated public golf experiences, carved through genuine Sonoran Desert terrain south of the Phoenix metro near the small city of Maricopa. The course was designed by Fred Couples and Brian Curley, opening in 2000 to immediate critical acclaim. Unlike many desert courses that merely border natural terrain, Southern Dunes is built into rolling dunes and undulating topography that creates a links-inspired feel unusual for Arizona. Fairways tumble through desert washes, elevation changes are pronounced, and the natural vegetation — untouched Sonoran scrub — borders nearly every hole. The dramatic par-4 and par-5 holes regularly rank among Arizona's best, and the course has appeared on multiple national 'best public courses' lists. Though the 30-mile drive south of central Phoenix filters casual traffic, serious golfers consider the journey worthwhile for the quality of the experience.
Ak-Chin Southern Dunes opened in 2000 on land associated with the Ak-Chin Indian Community near Maricopa, Arizona. Designed by Fred Couples (the 1992 Masters champion) and architect Brian Curley of Schmidt-Curley Design, the course was purpose-built to challenge and delight serious golfers. It quickly earned a reputation as one of the best public courses in the Southwest.
