Planning a golf trip this summer? Whether golf enthusiasts are planning a corporate business trip or a family friendly golf trip, look no further: Scottsdale Arizona is the ideal golf resort destination.

Scottsdale Arizona lies within Maricopa county Arizona, where visitors have 200 golf courses to choose from, including the standard rolling greens to more flavorful desert themed courses.

Some of the country's highest ranked golf courses and resorts are found in Scottsdale Arizona. Two resorts of particular interest to corporate golf trips that will be hosting conventions, banquets, or meetings in the Scottsdale Arizona area are the Wigwam Resort and Gold Club and the JW Marriot Desert Ridge. Both venues have plenty of meeting and banquet space and unique golf courses. But if guests choose to branch out and experience an early morning round, there are public golf clubs aplenty in the area with their own charm and various degrees of difficulty.

Modern luxury meets the Old West in Scottsdale Arizona vacations. It sounds like a contradiction, but in Scottsdale Arizona's golf resorts, luxury with western and local flair are what keep families, lovers, and corporate travelers coming back. The Westin Kierkland Resort and Spa provides guests with both a local flora themed golf course, where each of the three nines is named after a local desert plant found along the course. For golf resort guests seeking tranquility in the spa, they will be pampered with spa treatments that also use local desert plants.

Golf trips do not have to bore the kids at Scottsdale Arizona golf resorts. Westin Kierkland Resort is also a winner in the family vacation department. There are children's activities, clubs, and trips hosted by the resort, nine pools and an enviable water park, and movies in the pool on weekends. Families who want to get away from the golf club scene in Scottsdale Arizona can go tubing down the Salt River, visit the zoo, or shop one of many malls or upscale boutiques nearby.

What would a getaway be without good food? Local and international cuisine as well as more family friendly fare is also part of Scottsdale Arizona's appeal for both family and corporate golf trips. The golf clubs and golf resorts offer diners abundant choices, but along the city's Arizona canal there are many outdoor restaurants and shops with views to match their menu items. Cool festive beverages flow with ease and creativity for both adults and children. They are welcome refreshment along the city's canal and pedestrian friendly entertainment district.
