Overview

Desert Highlands is a nonprofit, member-owned golf and residential community for property owners at the foot of Pinnacle Peak. Its Jack Nicklaus-designed golf course anchors a private club with racquet sports, fitness facilities and multiple dining spaces reserved for the community's members. Membership comes with buying a home or home site, and member fees support shared amenities and community operations, while the club runs a formal dining room, a gastropub and outdoor dining areas. The Desert Highlands Association manages the club and community through its board and members. Founded in 1983, the organization is headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona.
