The Raven at Verrado, (Buckeye, Arizona)

Named one of the "Top 10 New Courses You Can Play" shortly after its February 2004 debut, the gently rolling property boasts spectacular views, plus many rocky hillsides with numerous boulders and sparse desert cactus. As the holes progress on the front nine, they move to the east to the flattest portion of the property with stunning long views of the Phoenix skyline. The back nine is more rugged as it plays in a rocky canyon that forces the middle holes of this nine to move up and down more than 100 feet. The finishing holes play near two pristine lakes with the clubhouse in the foreground.
