Located in the foothills of the Santa Catalina Mountains on a 600-acre desert preserve, the Lodge is a peaceful getaway for tennis players, golfers and those in pursuit of nothing more than a day at the pool. Two 18-hole Tom Fazio-designed golf courses wind their way through the landscape of wild brush and giant saguaros, while the resort’s tennis pro can help you master your serve on one of 12 hard courts. Rooms have Mission-style furniture, fully-stocked kitchens and old-fashioned freestanding bathtubs.
