Arizona is no stranger to world-class golf, but a new report from The Action Network has officially placed Goodyear on the national map. Ranked No. 7 out of more than 400 U.S. cities, Goodyear joins the ranks of elite golf destinations, thanks in large part to its stunning desert landscapes, sunny weather, and standout courses like our own The Golf Club of Estrella.
Goodyear by the Numbers:
- Rank: No. 7 Golf Destination in the U.S.
- Public Golf Courses: 7 (6 private)
- Average 5-Day Accommodation Cost: $1,115.05
- Average Annual Precipitation: 7.2 inches
While Scottsdale took the top spot with 25 public courses and a slightly lower lodging cost of $1,079.47, Goodyear’s higher accommodation rate reflects its growing appeal and premium experience.
Goodyear outpaced other Arizona cities like Mesa (No. 11) and Phoenix (No. 19), and even beat out popular destinations like Tucson (No. 21) and Glendale (No. 32).
At the heart of Goodyear’s golf experience is The Golf Club of Estrella, a Nicklaus Design Championship course that offers a challenging yet rewarding layout for golfers of all skill levels. Nestled in the scenic Estrella community, the course is known for:
- Dramatic desert vistas
- Impeccable course conditions
- Thoughtful design that blends seamlessly with the natural terrain
Whether you’re a local resident or planning a golf getaway, Estrella provides a serene and elevated experience that rivals the best in the country.
With year-round sunshine, low precipitation, and a growing number of public courses, Goodyear is quickly becoming a top-tier destination for golf travelers. It offers the perfect blend of accessibility, luxury, and natural beauty.
