Desert Mountain's Outdoor Living Specialists
Desert Mountain homeowners chose this community for the extraordinary — six private Jack Nicklaus golf courses, pristine Sonoran desert terrain, and privacy that's genuinely rare in today's Arizona. The outdoor spaces here need to honor that extraordinary standard.
Turfli founders Curtis Frank and Karl Baum approach Desert Mountain projects as bespoke estate commissions. We start with a thorough site assessment, develop a 3D design that works with your specific terrain and views, and build with our own crew from first stake to final walkthrough.
We prepare full Desert Mountain Community Association submittal packages and coordinate with their architectural review process.

"Turfli's work at our Desert Mountain property is exceptional. The outdoor kitchen, putting green, and patio now rival what we have access to at the club. Extraordinary craftsmanship."
"We've had work done by contractors at our Palm Beach and Aspen properties. Turfli's quality is right there with the best we've experienced. They understand luxury at this level."
"Multi-phase project — we started with the patio and turf, added the outdoor kitchen six months later. Turfli built the first phase with the second phase already in mind. Thoughtful, professional, superb."
