A private 27-hole hub in central Scottsdale, Gainey Ranch blends three distinct nines - Lakes, Dunes, and Arroyo - into multiple 18-hole combinations. Benz & Poellot's routing favors angle and position over brute length, with water and sculpted bunkers defining the Lakes side and more rumpled contours on Dunes. Arroyo adds risk-reward choices with desert washes crossing preferred lines into several greens. The club pairs resort-level service with full practice facilities shared by an active membership. Typical back-tee numbers for Arroyo/Lakes are ~6,800 yards around a 71.9/128 card, while other combos sit in the low-7,000/low-70s range.
