Estancia golf club

Estancia Golf Club is a golf course located at the base of Pinnacle Peak Mountain in Scottsdale, Arizona, within the 600 acre Estancia Club gated community. Designed by Tom Fazio, the course was built around the natural features of the land in order to take advantage of the desert and mountain scenery.
