Scottsdale, Arizona
TPC Scottsdale / Fairmont Princess is a full-service golf resort in Scottsdale, Arizona. It is best played winter into spring.
Tee times are open to the public, though the good ones go fast. Green fees run $300–$500 (winter). The property offers on-site lodging, which shapes how we build the days around it.
TPC Scottsdale hosts the loudest tournament on the PGA Tour calendar, and the resort around it runs at that same level year-round. No. 86 on our list, and a strong fit for a buddies' trip or a corporate outing that wants some spectacle attached.
Winter into spring is peak season in the desert, with on-site lodging keeping logistics simple.
