WHAT SETS MCCORMICK RANCH APART

A different rhythm
in the desert.

McCormick Ranch’s character comes from the way it brings things together: lakes and golf landscapes, established residential streets, public path connections and small shopping centers woven into daily life.

It’s a morning at Luci’s on Via Paseo del Sur. A round on the Palm or Pine course. Lunch along Hayden Road, then a walk on the greenbelt. And when you want a bigger outing, Railroad Park and the Talking Stick entertainment area give you more to explore nearby.

HISTORY OF MCCORMICK RANCH

From a working ranch
to a Scottsdale landmark.

The community association identifies McCormick Ranch as Scottsdale’s first upscale master-planned community. Its story began with Anne and Fowler McCormick, who purchased a 160-acre ranch and adobe home in April 1944.

Their holdings eventually grew to more than 4,200 acres. Cattle and Arabian horses shaped the working ranch; Anne’s breeding program helped establish Scottsdale’s equestrian reputation. Horse-breed street names near Arabian Trail and Mountain View Road still reflect that heritage.

In 1967, the family donated land to Scottsdale, including the site of today’s McCormick-Stillman Railroad Park. Anne’s son, Guy Stillman, helped bring its railroad vision to life.

Kaiser-Aetna purchased the ranch in 1970 for $12.1 million. The McCormick Ranch Property Owners’ Association was incorporated on September 21, 1972, marking a new chapter for the community of lakes, golf landscapes and connected neighborhoods.
