Why groups book SunRidge Canyon
The Wicked Six. One of the toughest finishing stretches in Arizona, and the best side-bet setup in the valley.
Desert links character. Stacked sod bunkers and big elevation changes you will not find anywhere else nearby.
Built for 36. About 10 minutes from We-Ko-Pa and Eagle Mountain for an easy double.
About the course
SunRidge Canyon Golf Club is known for its unique links-style desert course, a challenging 18-hole layout set against the backdrop of the McDowell Mountains with breathtaking panoramic views. The Keith Foster layout features dramatic elevation changes, stacked sod bunkers and the gauntlet of the Wicked Six finishing holes.
Time your visit to the Wicked Six Bar and Grill after your round and you might just catch the bagpipes while you enjoy a cold pint, the true feeling of finishing a round at a links course in Scotland.
“SunRidge Canyon is a hidden gem in Scottsdale! How many courses have bagpipes in their bar and grill?!”
