Booking tee times
Reserve tee times in advance through the resort or directly with the golf pro shop; the dossier indicates tee-time booking is managed on-site but does not include a direct phone number for the pro shop. For help, use the resort's main phone for reservations.
If you’re staying at Arizona Grand, mention you are a resort guest — the resort fee includes complimentary warm-up balls and promotes convenient access to the course, which may help with same-day booking or preferred tee times.
- Book ahead, especially on weekends and holidays
- Use the resort phone (+1 (888) 605-1350 for BookResorts agents available 24/7) or contact the resort front desk
- Confirm cart and club rental availability when you reserve
| When to book | Why |
|---|---|
| At least a few days ahead | Secures preferred tee times and rental gear |
| Same day (if available) | Possible for resort guests — check pro shop |
| Peak season/holidays | Book earlier to avoid sold-out times |
On-course logistics and rules
Follow standard golf etiquette and local course rules; the dossier does not list course-specific rules (such as dress code or pace-of-play policies), so ask the pro shop when you check in or when you book a tee time.
Golf carts are available, and the resort notes complimentary warm-up balls for guests. If you plan to walk, confirm walking policies, as some courses restrict walking when carts are required.
- Confirm local rules (dress code, cart restrictions) with the pro shop
- Ask about water stations and on-course restroom locations
- Report to the pro shop at least 20–30 minutes before your tee time unless otherwise instructed
| Topic | Action |
|---|---|
| Cart policy | Confirm availability and any restrictions with pro shop |
| Dress code | Check with pro shop; not specified in dossier |
| Check-in time | Arrive early to handle rentals and warm-up |
