Continental Golf Course, one of Scottsdale’s hidden gems, is one of the best golf courses in Scottsdale – but what’s the scoop on tee times, cost, membership and benefits? Here’s a guide to Continental Golf Course so you can get to know this beautiful spot known as “Scottsdale’s Best Late Afternoon Golf Getaway.”
About Continental Golf Course
Continental Golf Course is a Greg Nash/Jeff Hardin-designed course that’s made for golfers of all skill levels. This public course has been open since 1977, and it’s a popular favorite with locals.
The par-60, 18-hole course has a clubhouse, café and pro shop that features premium equipment and apparel. There’s a golf practice facility (including a short game area), as well, and if you need a nudge in the right direction, you can enroll in a comprehensive instructional program (they offer them for juniors and adults).
The greens are a tough read, which makes the course challenging for novices and pros (and everyone in between). Walking is allowed (though metal spikes are not). There’s also a driving range, pitching and chipping area, and putting greens for practice.
Where is Continental Golf Course?
Continental Golf Club is just around the corner from Old Town Scottsdale, near 101 and East Indian School Road. There are a couple of great little restaurants (as well as a Starbucks) just outside the club, as well, including Carlsbad Tavern and Dilla Libre Dos.
Continental Golf Course is near a number of Scottsdale neighborhoods, but the closest is McCormick Ranch. It’s also only a short drive from Eagle Mountain, FireRock, Ancala, McDowell Mountain Ranch and SunRidge – each of which has its own golf course and neighborhood.
