StoneRidge Golf Club, which opened in the summer of 2002, located at a 5,200-foot elevation within the foothills and shadows of the Bradshaw Mountains is surrounded by piñon pine, scrub oak, native grasses and wildflowers intermingled among granite rock formations and deep natural washes. The views are awe inspiring throughout the course.

Designed by Randy Heckenkemper, the 7,052-yard par-72 course is one challenging and dramatic golfing experience. Climbing and falling more than 350 feet in elevation throughout the course, the fairways and greens lay softly among the washes and canyons. In an effort to maintain the environmental integrity of the area, Heckenkemper purposely routed the course to preserve the natural washes and boulder formations that give the area its character, as well as making this a “thinking man’s course”.

“Its cool temperatures (mostly 20 degrees cooler during our summer heat) and striking views are very different from many golf courses in the Valley. Golf in Phoenix during the summer is nothing short of Hot!  And, we’re already reaching the 100 degree mark this year. StoneRidge is just a short drive (1 hour 15 minutes from Anthem) and offers an exceptional value with reasonable rates, along with a cool, challenging and beautiful golf experience.

Penncross bent grass greens, a mixture of bluegrass and rye grass in the fairways and tees, and bluegrass, rye grass and native fescue in the rough and out-of-play areas are featured at StoneRidge. It’s in excellent condition and ready for play. The fairways are lush and the greens are true.

GOLF Magazine and Golf Digest awarded honorable mention for “Top 10 New Courses” in the nation to StoneRidge.

“It’s my team’s favorite course to play in Prescott. Definitely worth the short drive to the cooler, mile high climate and the fantastic elevation changes. Of course, Hole #18 is something you have to experience to believe…(special note: check the layout before making your strategy to score on this one),” says Nancy Howard, Editor/Publisher of Arizona Golfer. “StoneRidge is totally a “Must Play” in the state of Arizona, so put it on your bucket list.”
