Its original home near 41st Street is now the Hancock municipal course, and its second site from 1950 to 1984 became the public Riverside Golf Course. The current Davenport Ranch layout on the Colorado River was designed by Pete Dye and renovated in 2015. Longtime instructor Harvey Penick coached members Ben Crenshaw and Tom Kite here, and the club hosted the WGC Match Play from 2016 to 2023.
