Quail Creek is located in the Green Valley area which has been described by Arizona Highway as the  “town too good to die... populated by people who have learned how to live.”  That’s because Green Valley was designed to offer the good life and it does.

Selected as one of the country’s best places to retire to by “Where to Retire” and “New Choices for Retirement” magazines several times, Green Valley, located in the historic Santa Cruz Valley, combines the best of two worlds and four cultures.

The community is part of the original San Ignacio de la Canoa Land Grant from the king of Spain, an area filled with rich history ranging from the Indians who settled the area about 1 A.D. to the conquistadors, missionaries, cowboys, miners and ranchers, and modern day health seekers.

Green Valley appeals to those who enjoy small-town living, where you know your neighbors, and traffic jams are a rare occurrence.

Yet the retirement community located 23 miles south of Tucson, and 145 miles south of Phoenix, also offers the desirable amenities of city life, including cultural activities, shopping, and a wide range of recreational activities.

The area is known for its unique blend of Native American, Spanish colonial, Mexican and Anglo cultures. Four flags have flown above the region: Spanish, Mexican, Confederate and American. Located at an elevation of 2,900 feet, at the foot of the ruggedly spectacular Santa Rita Mountain Range, Green Valley and the surrounding areas are blessed with sunshine more than 300 days a year.

Annual temperatures average 80 degrees during the daytime and 50 degrees at night, making the area a prime attraction for visitors who flock here to enjoy outdoor activities, especially golf, all year long.

The sunny and mild winters, healthful, clean dry air and combination of rolling grasslands, high desert and majestic mountains and canyons also lure hikers, tennis players, bird watchers, bicyclists, horseback riders, and swimmers to visit or, better yet, move to Green Valley each year.

Many are drawn to Green Valley and to nearby Tucson, Tubac and Tumacacori by the historic attractions, which range from early Spanish missions, old mines, ghost towns, sprawling cattle ranches and wildlife preserves to Old West theme parks and artists’ colonies.

Scenic drives and recreational opportunities abound in the area surrounding Green Valley, including four lakes and Madera Canyon, the “sky island” that ranks as one of the best bird-watching areas in the world.

Also nearby is the Fred Lawrence Whipple/Mount Hopkins Observatory, a world-renowned facility that rests atop the second highest peak in the Santa Rita Mountains.

Close by and contributing to Southern Arizona’s reputation as the “astronomy capital of the world” is Kitt Peak Observatory, which houses the world’s largest collection of telescopes.

Lovers of art and history are drawn to historic Tubac, the oldest European settlement in the area and a shopper’s paradise with nearly 100 galleries and shops in addition to its historic park and museum.
