Country Club Manor, Yuma AZ: Golf Course Living

If golf course living sounds like your kind of Yuma life, Country Club Manor deserves a long look. This established neighborhood wraps around the Yuma Golf and Country Club in south-central Yuma, and it offers something few Yuma neighborhoods can: a mix of single-family homes on the fairways and low-maintenance condos, all in the 85365 zip code, minutes from the shops and restaurants along 32nd Street.

Country Club Manor is not a new subdivision with a model home row. It is a settled, tree-lined part of town where the golf course is the backyard view and the neighbors tend to stay put. That settled feel is a big part of the appeal, especially for buyers who want a quieter pace without giving up a central location.

What the homes are like

The neighborhood has two distinct flavors. On the single-family side, you will find ranch-style homes and two-story homes, many with golf course frontage or views, typically offering two to three bedrooms and around 1,800 to 2,300 square feet. A recent example on Country Club Drive offered about 2,100 square feet with a wood-burning fireplace, a family room built for entertaining, and a bonus upstairs living space that works as an office, guest room, or hobby room.

On the condo side, the El Mirador community sits right on the course, including units overlooking the number two fairway. El Mirador is a 55-and-over co-op community, owner-occupied only, and recent listings there have ranged from the mid $100,000s for a two-bedroom condo to around $325,000 for a larger three-bedroom unit. One example HOA fee ran about $337 a month and covered sewer, landscaping, and trash, which is the kind of low-maintenance setup snowbirds and downsizers look for.

What do homes cost in Country Club Manor?

Prices vary a lot by property type, which is part of the neighborhood's charm. Condos in the El Mirador area have recently listed from the mid $100,000s to the low $300,000s. Single-family golf course homes command more, and rentals in the area, like a three-bedroom home listed near $2,250 a month, show the rental demand for this central location. For buyers, that range means Country Club Manor can work as a first golf-course home, a downsizer's condo, or a seasonal getaway.

Schools, commute, and daily life

Families in Country Club Manor are served by Yuma's public school districts, with elementary, middle, and high school options a short drive away. The commute is one of the neighborhood's quiet advantages: MCAS Yuma is about a 15-minute drive, Yuma International Airport is close by, and Yuma Regional Medical Center is an easy trip. Downtown Yuma and the Colorado River parks are also just a few minutes away, so a morning on the riverfront or an evening in the historic downtown is never a big production.

Daily errands are simple here. Grocery stores, medical offices, and restaurants cluster along 32nd Street and Avenue B, and the Yuma Palms Regional Center is a short drive for bigger shopping trips. Golfers, of course, have the main amenity right outside: the Yuma Golf and Country Club course, its clubhouse, and the social life that comes with a private club community.

Who lives here, and is it right for you?

Country Club Manor skews toward established homeowners, retirees, and winter visitors, with a good number of full-time residents who simply love golf and a central location. Military families also look here, thanks to the short drive to MCAS Yuma and the central Yuma location that keeps both the base and the Foothills within easy reach. It is quiet without being isolated, and central without feeling busy.

The quick pros and cons

• Pros: golf course setting, central Yuma location, mix of single-family homes and low-maintenance condos, strong appeal for snowbirds and downsizers, short commute to MCAS Yuma.
• Cons: older homes may need updates, the 55-and-over condo communities are not for every buyer, and golf course frontage homes carry a premium over similar homes off the course.
