Stretching over 7,200 yards from the back tees, the par-72 layout features dramatic elevation changes, pristine bentgrass greens, and strategic bunkering set against rugged desert scenery dotted with saguaros and palo verdes. Known for its seclusion, breathtaking vistas, and challenging design, Quintero blends resort-style service with pure desert golf, offering on-site villas and casitas for stay-and-play getaways.

The design embraces the natural contours of the land, weaving wide fairways and elevated tee boxes through rolling desert terrain, accented by saguaros, rocky ridges, and deep arroyos. Rees Jones crafted the course to balance beauty with challenge, offering risk-reward holes, bold bunkering, and multi-tiered greens that demand precision while still allowing room for strategic play.
