Blackstone Country Club is a private, guard-gated golf community inside Vistancia, the master-planned area in north Peoria. It’s built around a private Jim Engh-designed golf course, so Blackstone homes for sale range from roughly 1,800 square feet to custom estates over 5,000 square feet.
But here’s one thing to know up front: Blackstone is not age-restricted. It isn’t a 55+ community. Still, it draws plenty of active adults and right-sizing buyers who want private golf, a gate, and a club lifestyle without an age rule. Founder Jarl Kubat has spent 22+ years in the West Valley’s golf and active adult communities, so this guide gives you his straight take on who Blackstone fits.

Is Blackstone Country Club a retirement community?
No. Blackstone has no age requirement, so you’ll see families, working professionals, and plenty of active adults living side by side. That’s a plus if you want grandkids to visit anytime, or an adult child to live with you, without worrying about age rules.
If you’d rather be in an age-restricted community, however, you don’t have to leave Vistancia. Trilogy at Vistancia and Ridgecrest at Vistancia are both 55+ communities right next door, so you have options. So we’re happy to show you all three, and you can compare.
The golf at Blackstone Country Club
The course is a private, 18-hole, par-72 layout designed by Jim Engh, because he is known for dramatic, sculpted desert golf. It plays from 4,738 yards on the forward tees to 7,089 yards from the tips, so it works for a wide range of players.
| Tees | Par | Yards | Rating / Slope |
|---|---|---|---|
| Black | 72 | 7,089 | 73.2 / 138 |
| Blue | 72 | 6,363 | 69.6 / 129 |
| White (men) | 72 | 5,535 | 65.9 / 118 |
| White (women) | 72 | 5,535 | 71.1 / 134 |
| Red (women) | 72 | 4,738 | 66.7 / 112 |
Golf is a private club membership, separate from your HOA dues, and it’s optional. The CC&Rs say owning a home here doesn’t give you any right to use the club, and you don’t have to join to live here. Instead, members choose equity golf, non-equity golf, or social memberships.

Blackstone Country Club pickleball, tennis, and club life
Club members have 8 dedicated pickleball courts and 3 tennis courts, with leagues, tournaments, social mixers, and lessons. However, these racquet courts are only for club members (golf or social membership) and their guests. The clubhouse also offers dining and hosts private events. Also, to see how Blackstone compares for pickleball, visit our Arizona 55+ pickleball communities hub.

Blackstone Country Club rules worth knowing
First, here’s what Blackstone’s recorded CC&Rs say about the rules buyers ask about most.

|---|---|
| Parking | Park everyday cars in your garage or driveway, since overnight street parking isn’t allowed. |
| RVs & boats | RVs, boats, trailers, and campers can’t be kept where neighbors can see them, so plan on a garage or outside storage. |
| Golf carts | They must be electric, and they also must be registered with the state. |
| Leasing | Allowed for the whole home to one household, with notice to the HOA within 10 days. However, you can’t lease out part of a home. |
| Age | There’s no age restriction, so family of any age can live with you. |
Rules can change, so always review the current documents before you buy.
