We-Ko-Pa Cholla Golf Course in Scottsdale is consistently ranked among the best public golf courses in Arizona and one of the most pristine golf experiences in the Southwest. Designed by Scott Miller and opened in 2001 on land owned by the Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation, the Cholla Course winds through the native Sonoran Desert with lush rolling fairways, crisp greens, and spectacular views of Four Peaks, Red Mountain, and the Superstition Mountains.
“Truly WOWED by this golf course. I can’t express into words the amazing views and scenery that every golf shot presented during this round.”
With clear landing zones and well-defined risk-reward situations on every hole, the Cholla Course rewards smart decision-making without punishing players unfairly. No homes are built within sight of the course, keeping the experience focused entirely on golf and the surrounding desert landscape. The on-site We-Ko-Pa Casino Resort adds a natural entertainment option for groups after the round.
The Cholla Course is widely considered the favorite among Arizona locals, many of whom return season after season for its combination of conditions, scenery, and value.
