Trilogy Golf Club at Power Ranch<\/p><\/div>\n

The Buzz:<\/span><\/strong> Located in the far southeast portion of the Valley of the Sun, this par-71 course was created as the centerpiece of the Power Ranch master-planned adult community, but Trilogy Golf Club is a public facility. Created by local designer Dick Bailey, the course meanders through Queen Creek wash, with natural undulations, subtle elevation changes and strategic mounding. The desert-style layout, which opened in 1999, offers sweeping vistas of the San Tan and Superstition mountains, and a nice variety of holes that keep the round interesting and keep the player thinking.<\/p>\n

Trilogy at Power Ranch was created as a retirement community that has been rated as one of Forbes<\/em> Magazine\u2019s best places to live. It covers 670 acres of the 2,000-acre Power Ranch master-planned community. The Trilogy section is age restricted for adults 55 and older but the rest of Power Ranch is a family-friendly community, where home sales were completed in 2007.<\/p>\n

The course added some length in recent years, stretching it to 6,932 yards from the tips, with a rating of 71.5 and slope of 130. There are four sets of tees, with the shortest playing at 5,048 yards. Highlights of the front nine include the seventh hole, a 596-yard par 5 with a triple dogleg to a green guarded by steep slopes and mounds.<\/p>\n

The ninth, a 398-yard par 4 with a dogleg left, is another solid hole. A large bunker guards the right side of the green and water runs along the left side all the way past a green with a large bunker on the left front. The course finishes with three excellent holes. No. 16 is the toughest on the course, a 450-yard par 4 with a dogleg left and natural desert preserve dividing the tees, fairway and green.<\/p>\n

The 17th is the shortest of the par 5 holes at 558 yards but is a sweeping left dogleg with bunkers strategically placed along the fairway and in the left front of the green, narrowing the approach. No. 18 is a beautiful finishing hole with a double dogleg and water running along the right side, partially hidden from the tee, to a tricky, multi-tiered green.<\/p>\n

The course has full practice facilities, including driving range, practice bunker, chipping area and putting green. Amenities at Power Ranch include an athletic club, tennis courts, two swimming pools, a spa, excellent dining at the Santa Fe Club and Slate Bistro and Bar. The San Tan Club, which is the social heart of the community, includes a large stone fireplace, culinary teaching kitchen and movie theater.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
