Sun Lakes is a master-planned active adult community roughly 30 miles southeast of Phoenix, built around the idea that retirement should feel like a permanent vacation. Golf is central to that vision, and Palo Verde is one of several courses woven through the development — a layout designed for residents who want to play often, play comfortably, and still have energy left for the rest of their day.
At par 62, this is an executive-length course, meaning you'll carry more short irons and wedges than woods, and rounds move at a relaxed pace. That format suits the Sun Lakes lifestyle well — but don't mistake brevity for triviality. Executive courses in the Sonoran Desert still demand clean ballstriking and accurate approaches, and the Arizona sun has a way of making any lapse in concentration cost you.
The desert southwest sets a striking visual backdrop: dry air, mountain views on the horizon, saguaro and palo verde trees (the course's namesake) framing the fairways. Winters here are among the most pleasant in American golf.
