JW Marriott Wildfire Golf ClubPhoenix, Arizona - 480-473-0205 www.wildfiregolf.com JW Marriott Desert Ridge Resort & Spa, Wildfire Golf Club is an upscale daily fee facility located in Northeast Phoenix. It touts two picturesque 18-hole courses, situated in the rugged Sonoran Desert, each with its own distinct personality. The Palmer Signature Course, with a slope of 135, is a very playable, scenic experience. The expansive fairways allow the player to remain in play even on an errant shot. The flashed bunkering on Palmer is superb, and the putting greens carry plenty of undulation, like many Arnold Palmer designs. The expansive square footage of the greens (average size is 7,000 square feet) allow the undulations to create subtle challenges for the short game without feeling contrived or "tricked up". The Faldo Championship Course sits on a 174-acre site and offers a slight variation from the typical desert-theme courses. It features generous fairways, large bent grass greens and tee boxes. The surrounding mountains and century-old saguaro cacti as well as 106 sand bunkers, reminiscent of the Australian sand belt courses, provide a spectacular setting for the golf course and golfing guests. Both courses surround the spectacular JW Marriott Desert Ridge Resort and Spa, completed in November 2002, giving guests a wide array of activities to choose from after an invigorating day on the course. This is a discovery we are sure you will share with your golfing friends. Course Details Scorecard Reviews/Comments Location 5350 E. Marriott Dr. Phoenix, AZ 85054 Get Directions Nearby Courses:
