The course on which the FBR Open is played enjoys spectacular scenery. The McDowell Mountains tower over this desert golf course. Designed by Tom Weiskopf and Jay Morrish, the mounds and bunkers are strategically placed to challenge even the most expert among golfers. The beautiful course is well maintained and studded with saguaro cacti and mesquite trees. This eighteen hole golf course ranked third in the Golf Digest's top 100 courses in 1999. It is no wonder that this year over 5000 fans came to view the tournament while golf greats like Vijay Singh, Aaron Baddley and Phil Michelson played. The tournament attracts crowds of golf lovers every year. The loudest applause is at par -3-No: 16 because of the amphitheater atmosphere of the hole. Phoenix is agog with golf tournaments all year through but the FBR Phoenix Open tees the golf season off. Golf tournaments cannot finish in a day and a true golf lover needs to watch his or her favorite golfers over the span of the entire tournament. Staying at a vacation rental during the FBR open spells sensible golf watching. Hotels cost $500-700 per room per night while renting a villa or condo or apartments costs the same with multiple bedrooms at no extra charge. The tired spectator who is not comfortable with the location of the bedroom can always switch to another bedroom. Long golf viewing walks require a good night's sleep and an early start and a vacation rental will provide the privacy that hotels cannot give. You will not be disturbed by service knocks or blaring televisions of neighboring rooms. Problems of late room service will not trouble you when you get your food yourself and constantly ringing telephones will not disturb you golf sleep. Most vacation rentals are situated in quiet residential areas and some offer the security of not only being in gated communities but gated communities specific to golfers. Renting a home through an agent may help you get a package deal of tournament tickets car hire and home rental in one go. You have the freedom to decide the size the price and the location of the vacation rental. Traveling to Arizona for the FBR Phoenix Open Golf Tournament and choosing accommodation at a vacation rental is a case of watching great golfers play in a great course in great comfort.
