Desert Ridge

Some FAQ

Desert Ridge is a master-planned community that is located in Phoenix’s Northeast Valley. It was established in 1991 with the first homes being built and sold in 1996. Development progressed quickly with the community soon becoming the home of numerous businesses, healthcare facilities, and schools.

Today, Desert Ridge is part of the Paradise Valley Unified School District. It has four public schools to serve kindergarten through 12th-grade students. It also has the main shopping area, the Desert Ridge Marketplace, as well as a campus of the Mayo Clinic.

Much of the community’s more upscale amenities are found at its 36-hole championship golf course, called the Wildfire Golf Club. These include:

  • Fine dining establishments
  • A fitness club that offers classes like Pilates, yoga and core training
  • Bike rentals
  • Hiking and walking trails

The Wildfire Golf Club also offers a family escape that offers family-friendly relaxation in the sports lawn.

Members of the club also can rent out one of the club’s town cars or SUVs. They can use these vehicles for personal driving around the premises as well as nearby communities and neighborhoods.
