Golf at Tatum Ranch

Tatum Ranch Golf Club is a private, member-only club, not a public course. It is owned and operated by Arcis Golf, a national golf company, not by the Tatum Ranch Community Association or any homeowner. The HOA and the golf club are two separate organizations that happen to share the same neighborhood.

Arcis Golf was founded in 2013 by Blake Walker, previously chief acquisitions and development officer at ClubCorp, and has grown into one of the largest owner-operators of golf clubs in the country, roughly 80 to 88 private, resort, and daily-fee clubs nationwide. The company is backed by Fortress Investment Group, its primary backer since founding, and Atairos, which made a significant investment in 2020, and has put more than $120 million into facility upgrades across its portfolio.

The course itself was designed by Robert Cupp and opened in 1987, an 18-hole, par-72 layout running roughly 6,856 yards from the back tees with bent grass greens, a slope and rating of about 127 and 71.8. Members also get access to a pool, fitness center, dining, and a full events calendar, plus Arcis Access, which extends some benefits across the rest of the Arcis portfolio.

Membership runs through a few tiers. These figures come from real estate and membership-directory sources describing the club, not the club's own published rate card, so treat them as a starting point and confirm the current number directly with the club before relying on it: a Full Golf Membership around a $40,000 initiation fee and roughly $1,145 a month, a Junior Executive Golf Membership around $30,000 and roughly $750 a month, and a Social and Fitness Membership with no golf around $550 and roughly $165 a month, each with its own food and beverage minimum.

There is no public play, walk-up green fee, or public tee time booking at Tatum Ranch Golf Club, tee times go through the member portal. The club is at 29888 N Tatum Ranch Drive, Cave Creek, AZ 85331, phone (480) 585-2399, the club's own number, not Jon's; call the club directly for membership tours, current pricing, or tee time access, not this site.

Which neighborhoods have direct golf course frontage or access? Tatum Greens, Toscana, and Desert Fairways are all described as golf-adjacent in their own listings; see /subdivisions/ for detail on each.

Membership pricing above is sourced from real estate and membership-directory listings describing the club, not the club's own rate card, and changes over time. Confirm current numbers directly with Tatum Ranch Golf Club before relying on them for a purchase decision.
