About Forty Niner Country Club

Tucked beneath the shade of mature mesquite trees and nestled at the base of the Rincon Mountains, Forty Niner Country Club offers a laid-back yet scenic golf experience on Tucson’s east side. Established in 1961, this semi-private club blends Old Tucson charm with modern amenities, making it a popular destination for both golfers and families seeking a welcoming community atmosphere.

The club’s 18-hole championship golf course, designed by William Francis Bell, is known for its lush fairways, tree-lined layout, and peaceful desert setting. Unlike typical target-style desert golf, Forty Niner’s design is more traditional, with spacious landing areas, subtle doglegs, and mountain views throughout the round. The course challenges low handicappers while remaining approachable for casual players and beginners alike.

Beyond golf, Forty Niner Country Club features a range of amenities that make it more than just a place to play — it’s a neighborhood hub. The clubhouse includes a full-service restaurant and bar, a resort-style pool, fitness center, and event space for weddings and private gatherings. The club also offers junior golf and family-friendly events throughout the year, creating a strong sense of community among its members.

Set within a quiet, residential enclave of northeast Tucson, the real estate around Forty Niner includes a mix of classic ranch-style homes and custom residences, many backing directly onto the golf course. With mature landscapes, mountain backdrops, and easy access to nearby hiking, shopping, and schools, Forty Niner Country Club offers an inviting lifestyle in one of Tucson’s most tranquil golf communities.
