Scottsdale golf courses: tee times & green fees 2027

Seven clubs in and around Scottsdale will take a visitor’s booking, with eleven desert courses between them, and each one prices and books its tee times its own way. In North Scottsdale, the Stadium Course at TPC Scottsdale hosts the WM Phoenix Open, Grayhawk’s Raptor was a PGA Tour venue from 2007 to 2009, and Troon North runs two Tom Weiskopf courses under Pinnacle Peak. Further north in Carefree, The Boulders opens its South Course to visitors and keeps the North for members. The eastern side is quieter. Talking Stick’s firm, walkable O’odham is on Salt River Pima-Maricopa land, We-Ko-Pa is on the Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation, and Scott Miller’s Eagle Mountain sits above Fountain Hills. Only We-Ko-Pa publishes a fixed seasonal rate; the other six price by date and demand. This page compares what each rate covers, caddie and walking rules, drive times and autumn closures, so you can choose three or four rounds before the winter rush.

What a round really costs.

  • Green fee+
  • Tax or water fee+
  • Forecaddie+
  • Forecaddie tip+
  • Your bed

Only We-Ko-Pa lets you cost the trip in advance. Its 18-hole rate is US$239 until 7 January 2027, then US$329 to 25 April, except US$359 in Phoenix Open week. Add 9% sales tax; the peak 36-hole package is US$619. The other six clubs print no rate card, so search your dates on each tee sheet and look closely at what the price covers. Eagle Mountain’s rate already includes a cart and practice balls, then adds tax and a Water Resource Fee at checkout. Talking Stick and Troon North both include range balls, and Troon North adds its 5% water surcharge. At Troon North a forecaddie outside the included slots costs US$37 plus tax per player, with a suggested cash tip of US$30–40, and a 2025 TPC partner sheet lists a forecaddie as compulsory on the Stadium Course from November to April. Flying without clubs? Talking Stick rents TaylorMade sets for US$85 plus tax on a first-come basis, while Grayhawk’s PING sets cost US$125 plus tax and are reserved by phone.

Getting around.

Phoenix Sky Harbor (PHX), with direct flights from London, serves all seven clubs. Talking Stick is the nearest, about 17 miles away by the Indian Bend Road exit of the Loop 101. TPC Scottsdale is roughly 30 minutes north on the Loop 101, Troon North about 35 minutes up Pima Road without traffic, and Grayhawk 40 minutes or more. The Boulders, in Carefree, is the furthest north at 45–60 minutes. East of the city, We-Ko-Pa is about 30 miles out on the Loop 202 and the Beeline Highway, and Eagle Mountain, above Fountain Hills, is around 40 minutes from the airport and 15 minutes from We-Ko-Pa. The northern clubs sit close together: Grayhawk to Troon North is about 15 minutes, Troon North to TPC about 20, and Troon North to The Boulders about 20. Hire a car, and keep ride-share for evenings in Old Town Scottsdale.

When to play.

The season runs from late October to May, when winter rye has been sown over the Bermuda grass, and January to April is the busiest and dearest stretch. Autumn needs care. In 2026 Troon North shut Pinnacle on 20 September–8 October and Monument on 4–24 October; We-Ko-Pa closed Cholla on 5–22 October and Saguaro on 12–29 October; Grayhawk closed Talon on 28 September–11 October and Raptor on 12–29 October. The Boulders and Eagle Mountain publish no overseed dates, so ask before an October trip. The WM Phoenix Open takes over the Stadium Course from 8 to 14 February 2027, and in late February and March, spring training at Salt River Fields fills the hotels near Talking Stick. Summer brings US$109 rounds at We-Ko-Pa, but the heat passes 38°C, so play at first light.

Questions golfers ask.

What are the best public golf courses in Scottsdale?

We-Ko-Pa’s Saguaro has topped Golfweek’s ranking of Arizona courses open to the public in 15 of the past 16 years. The same 2026 list puts Troon North’s Monument 10th and Pinnacle 11th. Grayhawk’s Talon has made Golf Magazine’s Top 100 You Can Play list, and the Stadium Course at TPC Scottsdale carries the PGA Tour history.

How much does a round of golf cost in Scottsdale?

We-Ko-Pa is the only one of the seven clubs with a published rate card: US$109 in summer 2027, US$239 in late autumn and US$329 from January to April, plus 9% tax. TPC Scottsdale, Troon North, Grayhawk, The Boulders, Talking Stick and Eagle Mountain show live prices only when you search a date.

Do you need a caddie to play golf in Scottsdale?

No. Only The Boulders offers caddies, through its Caddiemaster programme, booked with the tee time. Forecaddies are the winter norm at Troon North and TPC Scottsdale. From mid-January to 25 April 2026 Troon North included one with each Thursday-to-Saturday foursome teeing off from 8 am to 11 am; the suggested tip was US$40 or more a player.

Can you walk a golf course in Scottsdale?

Yes, on two Coore and Crenshaw courses. We-Ko-Pa’s Saguaro keeps green-to-tee walks short and lends Speedcart push carts. Talking Stick allows walking on both its courses, with free push carts when available, and the flat O’odham is the gentler walk. Troon North has a 7 pm cart curfew, and Eagle Mountain’s rate includes a cart.

Which Scottsdale course suits a group of mixed ability?

Eagle Mountain in Fountain Hills is a good choice. Scott Miller’s par 71 has four sets of tees, from 6,800 yards on the Gold (slope 134) down to 5,065 on the Red, and the 6,269-yard Green tees (slope 127) suit most visiting handicappers. A cart comes with every rate, which keeps a slower group moving.

Can I play TPC Scottsdale during the Phoenix Open?

No. The Stadium Course is public 51 weeks a year, and tournament week is the exception. In 2027 that week is 8–14 February, with competitive rounds from Thursday 11 to Sunday 14 February. To see the 16th with its grandstands, buy tournament tickets instead.
