We-Ko-Pa Golf Course
Facilities
Open since December 14, 2001, We-Ko-Pa Golf Club is the Fort
McDowell Yavapai Nation's stunning new golf course. Featuring
an authentic tribute to the local Yavapai tribe, We-Ko-Pa
Golf Club pays homage to the original dwellers of the land.
Located in Fountain Hills, on the east edge of Scottsdale,
We-Ko-Pa (the Yavapai pronunciation for "Four Peaks Mountain")
presents a unique alternative to the already upscale Scottsdale
golf market. Designed by noted golf course architect Scott
Miller, the golf course was created to play a challenging
7,225 yards from the back tees, but with multiple tee boxes
that are well spaced to cater to players of all calibers.
In addition, there are no-nor will there ever be - residences
on the golf course, yielding some of the most dramatic and
"natural" views of the surrounding mountain ranges
including the Four Peaks, McDowell Mountains, Red Mountains
and the Superstitions.
Another distinguishing factor of the golf course is the ample
amount of natural mesquite, palo verde, saguaros, shrubbery
and desert vegetation that sprawl through the arroyos and
canyons of We-Ko-Pa, creating a lush desert feel.

Sloped entry walls and a wood beam canopy create a canyon-like
feel entryway, followed by a water and fire feature that is
