Desert Mountain (Geronimo)

Rugged and visually intimidating desert golf

About the Course

Geronimo is the wild child of Desert Mountain's seven-course portfolio. Jack Nicklaus designed this layout to be rugged, dramatic, and visually intimidating—and it delivers on all counts. The course winds through some of the most dramatic desert terrain in the community, with holes that play through boulder-strewn arroyos, alongside steep drop-offs, and across natural desert washes. It's target golf at its most demanding, requiring precise club selection and unwavering focus. The views are spectacular and slightly unnerving, adding psychological challenge to the strategic test. For members seeking adventure and adrenaline, Geronimo is the go-to choice.
