Bing Hu designed the Hacienda at Blackstone
A magical desert spot itself, Blackstone Country Club (just outside Phoenix in Vistancia) has devised a way for every resident to have a world-class amenity that rivals even Frank Sinatra’s splendor at Twin Palms.
The Hacienda clubhouse at Blackstone was designed by the renown Bing Hu and affords residents (many who live there year-round) a spacious 30,000-square-foot hub with fine or casual dining, resort-style pool and cabanas, tennis facilities, a wine cellar and bar — and outstanding golf out each door with an 18-hole championship course designed by Golf Digest’s 2003 “Architect of the Year” Jim Engh.
It’s so nice to have Frank and Bing together again, if only for one magic Private Communities Newswire dispatch…Swellegant!
