Getting There: Parking and Shuttles

Free general parking is available at the Arizona Veterans Memorial Coliseum, about a 10-minute shuttle ride to Phoenix Country Club. Continuous free shuttles run throughout each tournament day, so guests can skip the hunt for a parking spot near the course. Arriving early is a good idea on marquee days like the weekend rounds, when both parking and shuttle lines pick up.

What to Wear

Smart-casual golf attire layered for warm afternoons and cooler desert evenings works best this time of year. Think polos, collared tops, or golf dresses on top, paired with khakis, tailored shorts, or skirts on the bottom, plus a light jacket for after sunset. Comfortable walking shoes or clean sneakers are a must since the day involves plenty of time on grass and dirt paths. Round it out with a hat and UV-blocking sunglasses for sun protection.

What to Expect on the Grounds

Beyond the golf, the grounds are set up for a full day of entertainment. The Oasis on 17 serves as the hub for the $1 Birdie Beer promotion, with proceeds benefiting the Folds of Honor Foundation, while the Fan Zone near holes 16 and 17 offers concessions, a bar, and a first aid station. Free Adirondack chairs at holes 8 and 12 give fans a relaxed seat on a first-come, first-served basis, and the Autograph Zone near the 18th green is a favorite stop for meeting players.

Where to Stay

Skip the hotel shuffle and settle into a home base with space to spread out. Each of these three properties keeps guests just minutes from the course, with easy access to Old Town Scottsdale along the way.

Dune 

4 Bed | 3.5 Bath | Sleeps 16 

Just 14 minutes to the course in the heart of Arcadia, Dune pairs desert style with easy living from the moment you walk in. Coffee by the pool kicks off the morning, the fireplace sets the mood come evening, and the covered patio is ready for a backyard barbecue any night in between. Step outside and you’re close to local brunch spots and burger joints, with Old Town Scottsdale and the Entertainment District just a short drive beyond that.

Sunnyside

4 Beds | 2 Bath | Sleeps 10

Mountain views and a backyard made for golfers make Sunnyside a fun home base for tournament week. The custom-built putting green is the standout, giving your group a place to practice your putt, settle a friendly wager, or keep the competition going after a day at the course. Cool off in the private pool, challenge the crew to pool or arcade games, or unwind under the covered patio and pergola as the sun goes down. The home is 14 minutes from the course, with hiking, dining, shopping, and additional golf nearby.

Citrus 

5 Bed | 4 Bath | Sleeps 14 

Tucked into the sought-after Biltmore neighborhood, Citrus puts you within walking distance of dozens of restaurants, shops, and Biltmore Fashion Square Park, with the course just 18 minutes away. Take a dip in the private pool, fire up the built-in grill, or gather around the outdoor fireplace as the evening settles in.

Desert Dream 

3 Bed | 2 Bath | Sleeps 10 

A true mid-century gem, Desert Dream showcases a signature low-pitched roofline and oversized windows that frame wide-open views of the Arizona sky. The course is 24 minutes away, while Old Town Scottsdale and the Entertainment District sit just minutes down the road. Cool off in the private pool, gather around the fire pit lounge, or sharpen your swing in the backyard’s dedicated golf practice area.

Tournament week draws a crowd, and these homes tend to book up well ahead of time. Reserve your spot now to lock in your stay!
