of the nearby mountains and have been
well-trodden by various U.S. presidents.
In
Named Mountain
Shadows for the
shade that crept

each afternoon, it
quickly attracted
the Rat Pack and
other celebrity
clientele.
1918, The Goodyear Tire &
Rubber built its Organizational House
in Litchfi eld Park for executives visiting
to check on the company's cotton fi elds
(cotton then being woven into tires).
By 1929, the building had been opened
to the public as The Wigwam, all guests
arriving to the resort by stagecoach.
Upon check-in they were given a room
key-and a horse. Arizona was still the
wide open west in those days.
Now a 440-acre, full-service resort,
The Wigwam still has its old adobe-style
casita look on the outside, with 331 thoroughly
modernized rooms and suites
on the inside. There are three 18-hole
parkland style courses, two by Robert
Trent Jones Sr. (the Gold and the Patriot)
and one by Red Lawrence (once cannily
called the Red but now known as The
Heritage).

MINNESOTAGOLFER Fall 2018
A modern resort opened in Arizona's
Paradise Valley in 1959, with a short
par-56 course designed by Arthur Jack
Snyder debuting a year later. Named
Mountain Shadows for the shade that
crept over the resort each afternoon,
it quickly attracted the Rat Pack and
other celebrity clientele, was featured in
a short-lived detective series called " The
Brothers Brannagan " and one episode of
" The Monkees. "
The resort plowed through a few owners
before it fi nally threw in the towel
in 2004. But Westroc Hospitality began
new construction in 2015, the course
was redesigned (to a par-54) by Snyder
disciple Forrest Richardson, and a
brand spanking new Mountain Shadows
opened last year, with a retro design
nodding toward its fi fties past.
Feel the need for a regulation round?
Mountain Shadows will pour you into
their Tesla Model X courtesy car for a
trip over to the Camelback Inn, said to
have been Scottsdale's fi rst resort, opening
with 80 seasonal rooms in 1936.
Thirty-one years later it became the fi rst
Marriott property-the full name is the
JW Marriott Scottsdale Camelback Inn
Resort & Spa, but the motto over the
front entrance prevails: " Where Time
Stands Still. "
Early visitors included Ike,
Bette Davis, Jimmy Stewart and, naturally,
a fl ock of golfers queuing up on
the two courses. Arthur Jack Snyder and
Red Lawrence were the early architects
of record, but the old Padre Course was
redone by Arthur Hills in 1999, and the
Indian Bend Course replaced altogether
