Whisper Rock
Whisper Rock incorporates rustic desert lifestyle and luxury with traditional Southwestern architecture in a relaxed and inviting community that features the natural granite boulder formations surrounding it. Though diverse, the architectural character shared the common thread of blending familiar styles from their places of origin with locally available materials and rudimentary construction methods; yielding simple, yet substantial dwellings. Structures were often "nestled" into their site, taking advantage of existing natural features for protection from the elements.
Whisper Rock Estates encompasses 800 acres and has around 200 home sites. Home sites range between one and five acres, with the average site approximately two acres. This private guard gated community is mainly custom homes as well as 17 villas.

The first, The Lower Course which was designed by Phil Mickelson and Gary Stephenson in 2001. The second, The Upper Course was designed by Tom Fazio in 2005.
