**4 Star Course** The Raven layout features plush, rolling fairways framed by thousands of mature pines, African Sumac and Oleander trees as well as vistas of rugged Desert Mountains and the Phoenix skyline.

Over 6,000 pine trees were planted in 1995, which means the course has had time to mature and the pine trees are getting big. Water hazards come into play on five holes including the 18th with a green-side waterfall. The fairways are wide, and the large greens are undulating.

There are many subtle elevation changes that greatly enhance the panoramic views of the desert and mountains, along with the Phoenix and Scottsdale skylines.

"Golf Digest" rated this facility as having the "#1 Service in North America". The Raven Golf Club at South Mountain is an amazing Arizona golf course, and distinguishes itself year-after-year as the premier Arizona golf experience.
