ENCANTO 9 GOLF COURSE
🇺🇸 Phoenix, AZ, USA
Designed by William F., William Francis Bell

Encanto 9, a Phoenix landmark since the mid-20th century, stands as a testament to accessible golf within the city's heart. The original layout, a more modest design compared to its championship sibling across the way, presents a classic, walkable experience.
The nine-hole configuration favors a quick, enjoyable round. Its relatively flat terrain and forgiving fairways cater to all skill levels. While not visually dramatic, subtle undulations and strategic bunkering provide enough challenge to keep players engaged. The course’s charm lies in its unpretentious character and its function as a place where beginners and seasoned golfers alike can enjoy the game without pressure.
While Encanto 9 has never hosted professional tournaments of note, its significance within the local golfing community is undeniable. It remains a beloved spot for after-work rounds, family outings, and those simply seeking a relaxed atmosphere near the city's core. Its unassuming nature is, in many ways, its greatest strength.
