Unique Club/Facility Details

Nestled among the majestic ridge lines and the world’s largest stand of Ponderosa Pines, Forest Highlands Golf Club is widely regarded as northern Arizona’s premier private residential golf community. More than a club, Forest Highlands is a traditional golf club with a genuine small-town atmosphere—where relationships are personal, families grow together, and generations create lasting memories.

Our membership is vibrant and highly engaged, with an average age of 55 and a growing number of younger families bringing new energy to the community. Members embrace an active lifestyle centered around two fully renovated clubhouses, championship golf, wellness, recreation, and a full calendar of social events. It’s a place where children spend their summers at the pool, friends gather after a round of golf, and families return year after year to reconnect.

At 7,000 feet in Flagstaff’s cool mountain climate, the changing seasons shape the rhythm of life and work at Forest Highlands. Summer is our peak season—full of activity, events, and daily opportunities to create memorable experiences for our Members. Fall brings a beautiful transition, while winter offers a quieter, more reflective pace focused on preparation, planning, and enhancing operations for the year ahead. Spring signals renewal and anticipation as the club comes back to life.

Surrounded by clean mountain air, towering pines, and breathtaking scenery, Forest Highlands offers a setting that feels both inspiring and welcoming. Our rustic mountain architecture and thoughtfully designed amenities create an environment where Members and team members alike feel a true sense of belonging.
