Quintero in Peoria, AZ should be on anyone’s list who plays golf in Arizona often. Feels like a blend of Colorado and Arizona golf. Out in the middle of nowhere and is an absolute gem.

Excellent parkland golf in the desert. Small greens, narrow targets, and plenty of friendly people to meet when you drive it into another fairway. Easy to walk with a great clubhouse and staff. The layout isn’t exactly “exciting”, but not one bad hole, great golf course.

Great value for the valley. First par 3 on the back is super unique. Good use of the land.
