A spectacular course designed by Dennis and John Rider, Wolf Creek winds through canyons, creeks and high desert mesas.

Rio Secco . The Rio Secco Golf Club is attractive enough that we already highlighted it in our previous post. To recap: designed by Rees Jones, the 7,400 course is beautiful, challenging and home to the celebrated Butch Harmon School of Golf.
