DESERT ELEGANCE MEETS RESORT LIVING
Discover the Charm of Fountain Hills
Perched in the foothills of the McDowell Mountains, Fountain Hills is an oasis of breathtaking desert views, world-class golf, and vibrant cultural life.

GET TO KNOW FOUNTAIN HILLS
Arizona’s Desert Oasis with Character
From its world-famous fountain and dramatic desert landscapes to a thriving arts scene and stargazing under pristine night skies, Fountain Hills offers a rare blend of resort-style living, outdoor adventure, and small-town warmth—right on the edge of the Valley of the Sun.
A Master-Planned Vision
Founded in 1970 by Robert P. McCulloch and designed by C.V. Wood, creator of Disneyland, Fountain Hills was built with intention and elegance. The result is a thoughtfully designed desert community that balances scenic beauty with upscale living.
Home of the Iconic Fountain
Towering up to 560 feet, the town’s namesake fountain is one of the tallest in the world. It erupts hourly and becomes a communal centerpiece—once even dyed green for St. Patrick’s Day—drawing visitors and residents alike.
A Canvas for Dark Skies
Protected by the McDowell Mountains and surrounding open space, Fountain Hills is an accredited International Dark Sky community—one of the few urban areas to earn that distinction—making evening stargazing especially magical.
An Outdoor Lover’s Paradise
The town is flanked by the McDowell Mountains and offers endless recreation: hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, and even disc golf and kayaking nearby. With SunRidge Canyon, Desert Canyon, and FireRock Country Club at your doorstep, premium golf experiences are just part of the adventure.
Community, Events & Culture
Beyond its natural beauty, Fountain Hills thrives on community spirit—from art and wine festivals to the annual “Stroll in the Glow” and local traditions like LED-lit fountains and holiday balloon walks. With a small-town vibe and over 23,000 residents, it’s “Mayberry on the edge of the desert.”
