Wickenburg Ranch Golf & Social Club set to open Feb. 7th, 2015

Exceptional private club in the new Trilogy Community will accept limited non-member play during first season 

Arizona’s newest premier golf experience, Wickenburg Ranch Golf & Social Club, will open for play on Saturday, February 7th, 2015.

Located approximately one hour and 15 minutes northwest of downtown Phoenix near the intersection of Highways 89 and 93 in the historic town of Wickenburg, Arizona, the club will provide the social and recreational hub for the Wickenburg Ranch master-planned community. Wickenburg Ranch is currently under development by Shea Homes and Phoenix-based M3 Companies, and will feature Shea’s newest Trilogy resort community.

Crafted under the watchful eyes of two passionate stewards of the game – William Brownlee, a founder and partner in M3 Companies, and noted Landscape Architect Wendell Pickett of Greey Pickett Landscape Design – Wickenburg Ranch has been groomed and refined for the past seven years to ensure that once opened it will provide maximum playability, shot values, and enjoyment. The artfully designed holes traverse canyons and arroyos which abut the Prescott National Forest to the east and amazing vistas of Vulture Peak to the south. Each hole is a chapter in a larger story, with varying distances, compass directions, and skill requirements woven into the experience.

Because of the elevation and relatively mild summer temperatures in Wickenburg, the course is able to maintain Bentgrass greens all year round, presenting players with putting surfaces that will impress even the most sophisticated players.

“This is an ideal piece of property for a superb desert golf experience,” said Brownlee. “It has tremendous natural movement, incredible long-range views and spectacular land forms and features. Wendell and I were very careful and meticulous in the design process to ensure we utilized each of these to the greatest effect. Our goal was to simply accentuate what Mother Nature provided in order to create a golf experience as distinctive and unforgettable as the landscape.”

Daily-Fee Guests Welcome
Though a private club by charter, Wickenburg Ranch Golf & Social Club will welcome a limited number of daily-fee guests during the club’s first season. Limited to 72 players per day and spaced in serenity-inducing 12-minute tee time intervals, Wickenburg Ranch expects to draw both locals and visitors to the golf club, which will be purposely priced well below competitors of similar quality. Non-member play will be offered Tuesday through Sunday only, with tee times starting on Saturday, February 7th available to be booked beginning on Monday, January 12th.

Green fees – which include golf car, practice balls, a Travis Mathew polo AND a Travis Mathew performance overpiece (valued at $69 & $99 respectively) are just $75 per player for Wickenburg residents, $85 for Arizona residents, and $95 for visitors.

Trilogy® at Wickenburg Ranch
The first residential community to be offered within Wickenburg Ranch will be Shea Homes’ Active Lifestyle Division’s Trilogy at Wickenburg Ranch with home sales anticipated to begin in February 2015.

Homes within the community will be designed to combine modern luxury with western flair, while taking advantage of the natural surroundings, as homeowners will have access to state and federal lands and trails.

Shea Homes’ Trilogy® at Wickenburg Ranch residents will also experience a more temperate climate than the Valley of the Sun. Warm days will be followed by much cooler nights and mornings, as overnight temperatures in the summer drop to approximately 10-20 degrees cooler than those of Phoenix, appealing to potential winter visitors and year-round residents from the Phoenix area and other states.

Trilogy® at Wickenburg Ranch will be Shea Homes’ sixteenth Trilogy brand community nationwide, continuing and expanding its reputation as one of the most desired brands for active lifestyle communities. For more information, visit TrilogyLife.com and ‘Like’ Wickenburg Ranch on Facebook.
