Perhaps it begins with a morning hike at The Ranch or a fitness class at Sonoran Clubhouse, followed by breakfast at Café Verde, a round of golf with friends, and an evening in the company of neighbors and fellow Members at a Club event. With so much to experience, every day offers a new opportunity to make it your own.
Start the Morning with Movement
Begin your day at Sonoran Clubhouse with an invigorating fitness class like Pilates, yoga, or cycling, or simply enjoy a workout at your own pace using state-of-the-art equipment. Afterward, stop by Café Verde for a nutritious breakfast and a beverage before heading into the rest of your day. If relaxation is on the agenda, a visit to The Spa is another wonderful way to ease into the morning.
Make Time for Community
One of the most special parts of life at Desert Mountain is the social club community. You may take a day away from golf to spend your afternoon at C/G Clubhouse for a game of Canasta, Mahjongg, or Bridge, join a Book Club discussion, or discover one of the many other Social Clubs and activities that bring Members together. And you can’t forget about your pups. There’s a 19,500-square-foot dog park made just for your furry companions. There is something particularly rewarding about finding familiar faces and, just as often, meeting someone new.
Then, Take It to the Course
For many Members, a perfect Desert Mountain Day simply would not be complete without time spent on the course. With seven beautiful courses to choose from — six of which are designed by Jack Nicklaus himself — Members have a variety of ways to experience the game, each offering its own character and challenge.
Whether you are looking to challenge yourself, enjoy a scenic round with visiting friends, or simply spend an enjoyable morning outdoors, golf at the Club is a wonderful way to enjoy your day. And golf at Desert Mountain is about more than the game itself. It is the conversation between holes, the familiar faces you encounter along the way, the post-round gathering at a Clubhouse overlooking the desert views alongside friends and the memories created long after the final putt.
Stay for Lunch
A day on the course is not finished without a little time to linger afterward. Sit down for lunch, enjoy a refreshing beverage, and reconnect with friends after your round. Whether it is a casual bite between activities or a leisurely lunch overlooking the course, dining at one of the clubhouses is a natural extension of the golf experience.
End the Day With a Little Celebration
As the sun begins to set, the Club comes alive in its own way. Special evenings throughout the season offer Members the chance to gather, dine, and enjoy an experience together. One evening might bring the energy of an Italian Street Festival at Chiricahua, while another could transport you to the Mediterranean at Renegade. You might find yourself at an elegant wine dinner surrounded by good conversation and even better company. From themed dinners to social gatherings, there is always a reason to linger a little longer.
And perhaps that is what makes a perfect day at Desert Mountain: it does not have to be perfectly planned. It can be active or relaxing, social or quiet, spontaneous or filled with tradition.
Because here, a perfect day is simply one that gives you a reason to enjoy where you are — and the people you are with.
