Under renovation?

The course was disappointing. Difficult to find grass in the fairways. The course looks as if it is being renovated-I hope so. However this should have been mentioned when booking. The greens were in good shape for the most part. Will not play here again unless told by a friend it has been significantly improved.

Sand

The layout of the course is great and the greens and fairways are in great shape, but please please please do something with your sand! Or I should say the lack of it! I think your course writing will go by a lot of people if you took care of your bunker issues…

Course was like a cow pasture. SO BAD

WE LOVE the course and the people there, but holy cow...Aerating is one thing, but the course was rototilled and aerated so badly wide sections of the fairways were unplayable. Seriously unplayable. Holes ate golf balls like gopher or squirrel holes. Massive. I lost 3 golf balls right in the middle of the fairways. I get maintenance as needed for Az, but this was so badly conducted they should refund our money. Over $100.00 for a 2some? Great if the course warrants it, but in no way should they charge even $25.00 per person right now. Very sad. You made garbage track Del Lago look good.

Always challenging

I love this Tucson course. Even while undergoing aeration in early July it is still enjoyable and challenging. Just start early to avoid the crushing summer heat. I'm talking t ee time between 6 and 7am!!!

Stay Away

I was so disappointed playing the course today. It's one of my favorite layouts in Tucson - it's just a beautiful track. But...it's in the worst condition I've ever seen a course here turning over from rye to Bermuda even leave the course open- it's in horrible condition. Tee boxes have deteriorated, some bunkers are almost unplayable, you're lucky to land on some semblance of grass in the middle of the fairway and a big one that I specifically asked about before I booked my tee time: have the greens been punched? The answer was "no and conditions are good "

I'm disappointed because I felt duped by AZ National. You should probably be shut down during this recovery period - not charge $60!

Wait

Layout spectacular, greens great even though overseeded . Fairways were horrible. Mostly dirt. $67 was too much for this incredible layout. I’ll wait till in season pay a lot more and enjoy it a lot more too.

Overpriced for the Current Condition

Very disappointed with the course conditions. The fairways were extremely thin and mostly bald, with very little grass to hit from. It felt like we were playing off dirt for much of the round, which made an already challenging course even more difficult. The greens were also very slow and inconsistent. Considering we paid $60 per round and played in the summer heat, the overall experience did not provide good value. The course has potential, but the current conditions do not justify the green fee.

Beautiful layout, not in great condition.

This layout is outstanding, but the actual condition of the course is pretty rough right now. It looks like they cut the fairways and greens so thin that it has impacted the condition of them. I would go here to play just because of the layout though. If you get it on a deal, it's definitely worth it.

BYOB??

Took customers for a round of golf, unable to buy drinks before the game due to the bar being closed. Unfortunately didn’t see the beverage cart until the 15th hole… and it was hot! And the game was dragging on with slow rate of play.

Very good, could be great

No bar open after round was disappointing. Also never saw beverage cart. That would have been really bad on a hot Arizona day.

Incredible Public Course

Absolutely stunning course just like most courses in the foothills in Tucson. This being a public course and my round only costing $60 is unbelievable. The course was a bit soggy because it had rained all night but greens were still pure and rolled quick relative to the rain they had.
