MCP Adds Two Arizona Golf Courses to Power Pass

SAM Magazine—Durango, Colo., Nov. 11, 2026—Mountain Capital Partners (MCP) and its affiliated fund Texas Capital Partners closed on two Arizona golf courses as part of a planned acquisition. MCP Power Pass and 12-Day Power Pass holders will have access to a free round at each location through Dec. 31. 

“We’re working on a more robust golf program for 2027, but we didn’t want our pass holders to wait,” said MCP partner Kuzi Mutsiwegota, who oversees the company’s golf operations. “This is a chance for everyone to play these courses this season. 

With the acquisition of Tubac Golf Resort & Spa and Sedona Golf Resort—previously part of The Arizona Hideaway Collection, owned by the Allred Family—MCP has increased its portfolio to four courses. 

The company acquired Birdie Ranch and Bison Golf Club in Show Low, Ariz., in 2023, and has since tripled its golf business, according to MCP. 

MCP is also working to acquire the third property in The Arizona Hideaway Collection, Rancho Mañana Golf Club. The closing timeline for that course has been extended to allow for municipal approval requirements.

In addition to the golf courses, MCP also operates 11 ski areas in the United States and Chile, as well as a lift-served bike park in Texas.

The Power Pass includes various levels of access to all 16 properties.

“It’s the most expansive Power Pass in our program’s history,” said Mutsiwegota. “We know of no other season pass in the world that gives kids 12 and younger free skiing, free mountain biking and free golf, with no adult purchase required. Kids who learn to ski and bike with us can now learn to play golf with us, too. That’s how you grow the game. Now the whole family has one more reason to get outside, year-round, together.

Mutsiwegota added that the company believes Power Pass is “the only outdoor recreation product in the world that pairs unlimited skiing with free golf at four different golf courses.”

The golf additions come as MCP’s Chilean ski areas wrap up historically long seasons. Valle Nevado ended daily operations for the longest season in its 38-year history Nov. 8 and will operate on select dates through Dec. 1, while neighboring La Parva concluded its longest winter season in history on Nov. 1.

Arizona Snowbowl is slated to be the first ski area in MCP’s North American roster to open for winter 2026-27 on Nov. 20.
