About McDowell Mountain Golf Club

McDowell Mountain Golf Club is a north Scottsdale public course set against the dramatic backdrop of the McDowell Sonoran Preserve, one of the largest urban preserves in the United States. Situated on Sheena Drive in the prestigious DC Ranch area, the course offers stunning views of the McDowell Mountain range from multiple elevated positions throughout the round. The desert-style layout weaves through native Sonoran Desert landscape with natural washes, rocky outcroppings, and abundant saguaro cacti defining the character of each hole. The course plays to a full 18 holes of desert golf that demands accuracy off the tee — errant shots quickly find unforgiving desert terrain. At an elevation slightly above the Phoenix valley floor, McDowell Mountain benefits from slightly cooler temperatures during summer months. The surrounding luxury residential community of DC Ranch adds to the upscale ambiance.

History

McDowell Mountain Golf Club was developed as part of the north Scottsdale expansion into the DC Ranch corridor in the 1990s and early 2000s, when luxury master-planned communities pushed the boundaries of Scottsdale northward toward the McDowell Mountains. The course was designed to complement the natural desert terrain and capitalize on the preserve's dramatic scenery. It has served the north Scottsdale residential and resort community as a public-access facility for over two decades.
