The Golf Club of Estrella offers challenging play in the midst of breathtaking beauty. This dramatic, upscale daily-fee course flows along the contours of the land, allowing washes and hillsides to remain in a pristine state. The course is designed to accommodate golfers with varying abilities by offering several tee placements to match skill with distance.
As Jack Nicklaus II’s inaugural Arizona course, Estrella offers a classic golf experience unlike any in the area. Following in his father’s legendary footsteps, Jack II’s daily-fee championship course is golf in the traditional sense — challenging yet forgiving, and always spectacular. Fairways roll across the natural contours of the land, while elevated tees unveil views of the Sierra Estrella Mountains. It is a course as remarkable as its heritage.
Jack Nicklaus II learned golf design from the best — his father, yet over time he has carved out his own niche and reputation. In keeping with the philosophy of Nicklaus Design, the course blends in with its environs and incorporates natural desert vegetation. The diverse terrain of the course complies with Jack II’s goal of offering variety. “I want people to step away from my course having used every club in their bag,” he says.
The signature 17th hole, a 189-yard par 3, is set majestically into the rocky terrain and can be one of the few solid birdie opportunities of the Estrella golf course.

History Of Estrella Mountain
The Estrella Mountains were founded by the Akimel O’odham people, and currently the Estella Mountains soar over the villages that once settled them in the Gila River Indian Community. The land was claimed as the New Spain during the colonization of America.
Mexico eventually announced its liberty from Spain. The Estrella Mountains became part of Mexico. The United States obtained the Estrella Mountains from the Mexican people. It was part of the Gadsden purchase. The Butterfield Overland stage moved in and started moving people from California to the area. It was a popular trade route. Eventually, progress took over and the stage went away to make room for the railroad.
The last battle between native Americans, that of Pima Butte took place in 1857. The Akimel O’odham people were overtaken by the Apache, Mohave, and Yuma people. Afterwards a lot of gold seekers were searching for Montezuma’s treasure which is believed to still be buried in the Sierra Estrellas.
In 1985, Charles Keating of the renowned Lincoln Saving & Loan debacle purchased federally reserved land from the government, to create a master planned community inside the foothills of the Estrella Mountains. A year later, development started. In 1999, a Jack Nicklaus designed golf course was added to the community. Since that time shopping and schools came to Estrella. As Estrella Mountain continues to grow, the charm of it will never be lost.
