Rating 69.5

Tubac Golf Resort is home to 27 holes of golf that are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The resort is most famously known for providing the set for the golf movie "Tin Cup." It was most likely chosen for its lush landscape of mature trees and cottonwood groves along with its dry, temperate climate. The Otero/Anza combination features some tricky water hazards. The par-3 ninth hole on the Anza nine has an island green similar to the notorious 17th hole at TPC Sawgrass. The ninth hole on the Otero nine features an expansive lake that runs alongside the left side of the green. In addition to the three golf courses, Tubac Golf Resort also features an extensive practice facility with a driving range, putting green, and practice bunker.

A must play for any golfer

If you watched Tin Cup the iconic movie it’s so cool playing the same holes Costner did in the movie. If not the course is still amazing with great views, wonderful casitas, bar, and restaurant.

The only negative is the head pro as he has never been friendly to my groups but is to locals.

Tubac lunch and golf

Had a great lunch at Stables on the patio before playing golf. Got to play two fantastic nines at Tubac. The course was great although the second half was pretty slow.

Okie spring break

We really enjoyed playing here. The only problem I had was very limited water to drink on the course and when we found something it was warm I would recommend this to anybody.

Need marshals to move things along

What do they have against ball washers? None to be found anywhere. Guy in front of us waited for the green to clear on par 4s twice prior to teeing off from the whites. (He rolled both shots) where are the marshals for dopes

like this?

What a gem!

We are residents in the area and this was the first time to play at Tubac. What an absolute pleasure and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Great atmosphere and great people. The course is also in fantastic shape (our CC home course is not as good as this)! Great layout and playing conditions. We kept raving about it after we left. Don’t hesitate and do yourself a favor and go!

2:12 tee time.

I booked a late tee time for Sunday March 8. The course was in excellent shape, Marshall came to check on us to make sure the pace of play was good. I appreciated this check.

Always a good experience

Once again Tubac reminds me that it's always worth booking a round. Staff was fun & friendly. Course was in great condition with a super considerate grounds crew. Definitely a must play if given the opportunity.

Tin cup rounds

You play two different 9 hole courses for the 18.

It’s pretty cool you play either Otero then Rancho or Anza and Rancho . The Rancho course is the Tin Cup movie course. It was a great time. Stay at the resort and play all courses you’ll love it. Beautiful scenery.
