Rancho Manana Golf Club

What Rancho Manana Golf Club does

Rancho Manana Golf Club is a single-property public golf club and resort located at 5734 E Rancho Manana Blvd in Cave Creek, Arizona. The property features an 18-hole, par-70 championship course set in the Sonoran Desert with dramatic elevation changes and views of Camelback Mountain and the Tonto National Forest; it traces its heritage to a 1940s dude ranch that was later converted into a golf course. The club is managed under the Troon Golf portfolio and operates as part of the Arizona Hideaway Collection, a hospitality brand group that also includes The Hermosa Inn, Tubac Golf Resort & Spa, and Sedona Golf Resort.

The business serves four principal customer groups: public golfers booking tee times through the TeeItUp online platform (or by phone), members on an annual subscription program with full course access and exclusive benefits, group/corporate outing organizers, and dining guests using the on-site Tonto Bar & Grill, The Oasis grab-and-go outlet, and the on-course beverage cart. Additional services include Ping and Mizuno club rentals ($60 per round), 30-minute and 1-hour golf lessons with multi-lesson packages, practice range and putting green access, and a golf shop for apparel and equipment. Revenue is generated through transaction-based fees (green fees, rentals, instruction, F&B, tournaments) and a recurring membership subscription, with approximately 15 employees disclosed. Public tee-time pricing and membership fees are not publicly disclosed.
