Desert Forest Golf Club, Golf course in Carefree, United States

Red Lawrence established this private golf facility in 1962, creating the first desert-style course that maintained natural landscape with minimal ground alterations.

The golf club promotes traditional golfing values through its Youth Caddie Program, connecting young participants with experienced players for knowledge transmission.

Members access practice areas including a driving range, putting green, and chipping zones, with rental services for golf carts and equipment.

The course layout includes six dogleg fairways without sand bunkers, requiring players to navigate through native desert vegetation surrounding each hole.
