Troon is partnering with Tubac Golf Resort & Spa, Rancho Mañana Golf Club and Sedona Golf Resort — all properties owned and redeveloped by the Allred family.
“We’ve been working with the team at Sedona Golf Resort for many years and are now thrilled to welcome Rancho Mañana and Tubac to the Troon family,” Troon global sales and marketing EVP Kris Strauss said. “We are excited to work with the Allred team to increase the visibility of these three uniquely Arizona golf facilities.”
As part of this agreement, the three properties will benefit from Troon’s suite of services, including increased visibility through Troon’s extensive marketing platforms. The courses will be featured across Troon’s digital channels and integrated into Troon’s loyalty and membership offerings, giving golfers access to exclusive experiences and opportunities at some of Arizona’s more celebrated destinations.
“Our family has always been passionate about preserving Arizona’s rich history while creating modern experiences that celebrate its unique landscapes,” said Mike Allred, president and CFO of the properties. “Partnering with Troon allows us to share these one-of-a-kind destinations with a broader audience, offering golfers and travelers the opportunity to connect with these special places — whether they’re teeing up on a championship course or relaxing in one of our historic resorts."
Rancho Mañana Golf Club sits on what was once a 1940s dude ranch, where visitors came to enjoy the rugged beauty of Cave Creek. Designed by Bill Johnston in 1989, the par-70 course spans 6,016 yards, offers stunning elevation changes and panoramic mountain views, plus the chance to play through some of Arizona’s last remaining riparian zones. The front nine winds through Cave Creek Wash, while the back nine surrounds a large lake, offering contrasting styles of play. Dave Flood is the golf course superintendent.
Tubac Golf Resort & Spa is located on the historic Otero Ranch, which dates to the 1700s. The 27-hole championship facility, designed by Red Lawrence, stretches across the rolling terrain of Arizona’s Santa Cruz River Valley. Featured in the Kevin Costner movie Tin Cup, Tubac is known for its lush fairways framed by centuries-old cottonwoods, scenic water features, and stunning views of the Santa Rita Mountains. Raymond Frye is the golf course superintendent.
Located in the heart of one of the most captivating regions of the Southwest, the 6,646-yard, par-71 Sedona Golf Resort is considered among the world’s more unforgettable golf experiences. Winding around the famed red rocks of Sedona, each hole provides a unique adventure and varied angles of the stunning views. Bob Laas is the golf course superintendent.
