Money-Saving Tips for Phoenix / Mesa

  • Walk instead of riding — 3 courses here are walkable, saving $20-30/round on cart fees.
  • Book a house that sleeps your full group — per-person lodging drops dramatically with 8+ people.
  • Travel in the shoulder season (just before or after Spring/Fall) for lower rates on everything.
  • Mix in casual spots — 3 restaurants here are under $30/person.
  • Hire a private chef for one night — often cheaper than a $$$$ restaurant for large groups, and the house becomes the venue.
  • Use the planner to compare different course/lodging combos and find the sweet spot for your budget.
