About the Course
Rio Verde features two traditional-style courses with a soft desert look. They are Midwestern in style with a lot more grass than one would imagine in a desert setting. When Tom Lehman led the $6 million course renovation project in 2007, he achieved his vision of creating two uniquely distinct courses, giving members a never-ending variety of golf experiences. Quail Run has all the elements of a traditional golf course, and White Wing plays more as a links style course. Common to both courses are meticulously groomed fairways, greens loaded with personality, and outstanding mountain views.
