Desert Aire Golf Course opened in 1959 as a full-length nine-hole layout designed by Ted Robinson Sr. Its fairways are framed by towering cottonwood trees, which stand tall enough to be visible from a considerable distance. The course measures 3,178 yards from the blue tees.
Practice facilities include a driving range, a full-size sand bunker, a putting green and a large chipping area, making the course a suitable spot for newer players as well as those working on their game.
The clubhouse restaurant serves hot dogs, sandwiches, burritos, Philly cheesesteaks and snacks, along with soft drinks, beer and wine coolers.
