What makes Troon and Troon North special compared to other golf communities?

Troon North sits at an elevation of 2,500 to 3,000+ feet in the high Sonoran desert, making it 5 to 8 degrees cooler than Phoenix. Known for giant granite boulders, saguaro cactus forests, Pinnacle Peak views, and 36 holes of golf at Troon North Golf Club, it attracts golfers and winter visitors looking for quiet desert living.

What lease lengths are common in Troon North?

The Troon North Association prohibits rentals under 30 consecutive days. Most owners choose one of two options: (1) Long-term 12 to 24-month executive leases renting for $4,000 to $9,000 a month; or (2) Seasonal winter rentals (January through April) renting to winter visitors for $8,000 to $15,000+ a month.

How do you care for homes built around natural desert boulders and washes?

Troon homes often have large granite boulders and natural desert washes right in their yards. When summer monsoon storms hit Troon Mountain and Pinnacle Peak, rainwater drains quickly down the hills. We inspect retaining walls, drainage channels, and roof drains to ensure storm runoff flows safely away from foundations and pool equipment.

Do Troon homes have septic systems?

Most planned subdivisions in Troon North are connected to city sewer lines. However, several custom hillside homes around Troon Mountain and Pinnacle Peak have private septic systems. We inspect septic tanks, check pumps, and explain proper septic care to tenants.

What schools serve Troon North?

Troon North is served by the Cave Creek Unified School District, including Desert Sun Academy (French immersion), Sonoran Trails Middle School, and Cactus Shadows High School.

What Draws Renters to Troon

Renters are drawn to Troon for its quiet scenery, world-class golf, and outdoor recreation:

1. Championship Golf

Troon North Golf Club features two courses—The Monument and The Pinnacle, designed by Tom Weiskopf. Both courses rank among the top desert courses in the Southwest. For golfers and winter visitors, living right near the clubhouse is ideal.

2. Pinnacle Peak Park & Desert Trails

Outdoor enthusiasts love living next to Pinnacle Peak Park, a 150-acre park with a popular 3.5-mile trail, panoramic desert views, rock climbing areas, and native wildlife.

3. Cooler Temperatures & Stargazing

Because Troon sits hundreds of feet above the valley floor, temperatures are 5 to 8 degrees cooler than Central Phoenix and Scottsdale. In addition, city and HOA outdoor lighting rules keep the night skies dark and great for stargazing.

Desert Living & Property Care

High-desert homes in Troon have unique maintenance needs:

Mountain Wash Drainage: Heavy desert cloudbursts during summer storms cause fast runoff down mountain slopes. We check dry washes, retaining wall drains, and patio channels so storm water flows away from home foundations and pool equipment.
Wildlife Awareness & Pool Safety: Because Troon borders natural desert preserves, bobcats, javelina, and coyotes are common. We inspect perimeter fences, self-closing pool gates, and trash enclosure latches to keep properties safe.
Protected Desert Plants: The Troon North Association and local laws protect native desert plants. Saguaros, ironwood trees, and ocotillos cannot be removed or trimmed without approval. We work with certified desert landscapers who know how to care for native vegetation properly.
Heating and Cooling Tune-Ups: Because Troon is higher in elevation, heat runs often during chilly winter nights when temperatures drop into the 30s, while AC runs during hot summer days. We schedule seasonal checkups every spring and fall to protect dual heat pumps and compressors.
