Golf Digest is one of the most trusted, most prestigious golf publications, not just in the United States but in the world. So when Golf Digest gives a high ranking and a very good review about a golf course, more likely than not, the golf course is excellent. Golf Digest’s highest ranking given is 5 out of 5 stars and the course must be “Superb. Golf at its absolute best”, where fees are of no issue as long as the course delivers the best game of golf possible. It has only given 24 5-star rankings in North America and only one golf vacation destination in Arizona received this high a ranking: TRILOGY GOLF CLUB AT VISTANCIA.

A Gary Panks creation, the 18-hole par-72 Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia has five different sets of tees and stretches from 5,573-yards to 7,258 yards. There is not much water to battle at the Trilogy, characteristic of desert layouts, but the bunkers are anything but easy. 70 prominent bunkers dot the course and they could make or break any game. Experts advice golfers to take it slow in here and not to get all too excited – it requires careful planning and an even better execution to come out of here unscathed. Golf trips here are even made more beautiful by the pristine views of the Sonoran desert surrounding it and its signature saguaro cacti.

The course of rolling terrains and stunning native grasses give the Trilogy Golf Club at Vistancia an edgy attitude – makes for variety in game, not to mention the different sets of tees that players of all handicaps can get to enjoy. Golf vacations here are easy and pleasant, with its many wonderful amenities and accessibility, being only 25 minutes from downtown Phoenix. This not only proves Golf Digest’s judgment. Experiencing it firsthand proves the credibility of Golf Digest as well – it knows beauty right at the first glance.
