The San Marcos Golf Course is where it all started for Arizona. This 18-hole, 6,626-yard course opened in 1913 and was seeded with Bermuda grass shortly thereafter, making it the first golf course in Arizona with grass greens. Over the decades, presidents, dignitaries, and celebrities have enjoyed the lush setting and challenging play offered at this traditional course.
You'll find an enjoyable course nestled in the midst of an impressive property that's listed on the National Register of Historic Places. But the property has undergone a renaissance with more than a $4-million renovation. In addition to golf, the resort features two restaurants, two lounges and a huge heated swimming pool.
