About Wildfire Golf Club - Faldo Course

Wildfire Golf Club's Faldo Course at the JW Marriott Desert Ridge Resort in north Phoenix is one of two acclaimed courses on the same resort campus, designed by six-time major champion Nick Faldo. Opened in 1997, the Faldo Course takes a distinctly strategic approach — narrower corridors, precise shot-shaping requirements, and Faldo's signature emphasis on course management over raw power. The layout winds through classic Sonoran Desert terrain with saguaro-studded hillsides and desert washes punishing wayward shots. Camelback Mountain and the McDowells provide the backdrop from this premium north Phoenix location near the Loop 101 / I-17 interchange. The JW Marriott resort offers world-class amenities — spa, multiple pools, excellent restaurants — making Wildfire a complete destination. The Faldo Course demands more precision than the companion Palmer Course and rewards players who think strategically.

History

Wildfire Golf Club's Faldo Course was designed by Nick Faldo, then at the height of his career as a six-time major champion, and opened in 1997 as part of the JW Marriott Desert Ridge development. Faldo brought his European strategic sensibility to the Sonoran Desert, creating a course that rewards smart play over power. The resort has undergone significant investment since opening, solidifying Wildfire's position among Phoenix's top resort golf destinations.

Strategy-focused golfers who enjoy precision shot-making and thinking players' courses, especially those pairing golf with a full JW Marriott resort stay.
