For those who fancy a little variety in their golfing experience, GolfPass offers numerous enticing golf packages, catering perfectly to your winter getaway needs.
Grass Clippings: More Than Just a Course
For a unique vibe, head over to Grass Clippings at Rolling Hills. This innovative venue now features a fantastic Toptracer Range with 35 hitting bays, allowing golfers to track their shots and improve their game. Out of those, 25 bays are covered for your comfort! As if that weren’t enough, enjoy some nighttime golfing thanks to the newly installed lights. To make things even sweeter, Grass Clippings has added a full-service bar and the delightful Taco Del Valle food truck to keep everyone well-fueled!
And because summer temperatures in the desert can soar, Grass Clippings has installed a misting system to keep golfers cool while they’re hitting the links.
New Outdoor Venues and Dining Experiences
Say hello to the new Glenrosa Bar – a Sonoran beach-themed outdoor venue that can accommodate over 100 guests! With TVs for those sports events and cozy fire pits to enjoy the evenings, it’s the perfect place to unwind after a day on the course. On top of that, there’s excitement brewing with the opening of the Glenrosa Restaurant expected later this year. Cheers to that!
Family-Friendly Fun at Ak-Chin Southern Dunes
For families or beginners looking for a gentle introduction to golf, Ak-Chin Southern Dunes has improved its #miniDunes course by adding lights! This six-hole setup is designed for less experienced players seeking an enjoyable experience without the pressure of an 18-hole course.
Renovations Across Other Golf Resorts
Meanwhile, the stunning Tubac Golf Resort & Spa has completed an exciting renovation on its Rancho nine, featuring brand-new Dominator Bentgrass greens. And there’s more to come with future plans for additional renovations across the board!
On the other hand, The Club at Starr Pass in Tucson is also in the middle of transforming nine holes to Bermuda grass, with sustainable turf quality in mind. If you prefer a getaway with a twist of luxury, keep an eye on The Wigwam Resort, updating their Fairway Suites with private patios and fire pits.
Culinary Delights and Elegant Spaces
Let’s not forget about food and ambiance! The Arizona Biltmore Golf Club has just opened a stunning new Adobe Bar & Grille, boasting fantastic views as part of their new 19,400-square-foot clubhouse. Dining options are on the rise too, with the Grand Hyatt unveiling enhancements across nearly 500 rooms along with new dining concepts, including an exciting Italian steakhouse!
