Of the three nines, Canyon Crest, Ridgeline and Creekside, it is really difficult to choose my favorite.
Canyon Crest (Par 36 3422 yds) is probably the easier of the three nines, with dramatic elevation changes and great views of the surroundings.
Ridgeline (Par 36 3470 yds) features several elevation changes as well, with 3 par 5s, one 660 yds long, and 3 par 3s.
Creekside (Par 36 3507 yds) is the tougher and longer of the three. Challenging and spectacular it runs along side a dry creek with some forced carries required.
The practice facilities are the best you can find in the area, located right in front of the magnificent 20,800 sq ft clubhouse designed in 2003 by architect Frank Lloyd Wright.
A private Country Club open to the public. A must play for everyone I really recommend.
