This championship course is 7,108 yards from the tips. Designed by Jack Nicklaus’ development group, the par-72, 18-hole golf course conserves water by using turf to create a ‘target-golf’ effect. The Desert Highlands course is also the very first one to be played by the ‘ultimate foursome’: Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player, and Tom Watson. The course also features an 18-hole putting course. Membership in the club is restricted to residents, as membership is automatic with property ownership in Desert Highlands. Members of Desert Highlands can also enjoy a 7,000 square foot fitness and wellness center, where members can attend fitness classes, consult a personal trainer, and receive nutrition consulting, a swimming pool, and a clubhouse restaurant. There is also a thirteen-grass and hard surface tennis court complex (which has four clay courts, four grass courts, three hard surface Laykold courts, and two Nova Pro Bounce courts) at members’ disposal.
