ABOUT
Rio Verde Country Club
About 30 minutes from Scottsdale, this quiet, rural location offers a private country club with two Lehman designed courses. The large custom homes are surrounded by the pristine desert of the Tonto Nat’l Forest, and stunning mountain views.
Overview
Rio Verde is an exclusive golf retirement community for active adults that is nestled in the high Sonoran Desert, and known for its spectacular mountain views, its serenity, and its outstanding services and amenities.
The Rio Verde active adult development is comprised of three very beautiful and exclusive adult communities: Rio Verde (the original development), Tonto Verde, and the newest community, Trilogy at Verde River. Each luxury community was developed separately and has its own private equity golf course and country club. The three communities are commonly referred to collectively as “The Verdes.”
First conceived as a winter golf camp in the late 1960’s by a group of Minnesota investors, the first Rio Verde community began development in 1973 and today covers nearly 710 acres, has approximately 980 residential home sites (single family and town homes). and about 1,800 residents. Rio Verde is far enough from the city to enjoy clean air, star-filled nights and lush desert landscaping.
A healthy vibrant lifestyle is enhanced by Rio Verde’s two eighteen hole parkland style golf courses, country club, restaurants, community church, tennis club, community center, pools and nearby ranch and riding stables as well as a broad range of physical, social and intellectual activities.
Rio Verde Country Club, Real Estate
With 980 properties and just over 1,800 residents, the community is large enough to support the two golf courses and sustain lots of clubs and activities, yet small enough to know most of the people in the community.
Although there are some townhomes, (referred to as “villas), the majority of homes at Rio Verde are custom built homes. The houses are often larger than your typical 55+ active adult community will offer, and many sit on larger lots as well.
About the Rio Verde Area
Rio Verde is a very rural area in the far northeast section of the Greater Phoenix metro area. The terrain is rugged, natural Sonoran Desert, and evenings can offer quiet surroundings and blissful views of the stars in the desert sky. Rio Verde is an ideal location for people who enjoy outdoor activities and like to be close to nature.
The three active lifestyle communities often referred to as “The Verdes” consists of Rio Verde, Tonto Verde and Trilogy at Verde River. Rio Verde has a private utility company that provides water and sewer to all three communities, its own post office, a convenience store and a beautiful nondenominational, community-built church with services for both protestants and Catholics.
It’s location next to Scottsdale makes it desirable for those looking for a rural location away from crowds and traffic, but not too far from the convenience of city life. Expect about a 15-20 minute drive to far North Scottsdale, and about 30-40 minutes to the more “in-town” Scottsdale locations.
