another very good day........

in spite of winds up to 30MPH, we enjoyed the day with friends from Iowa. (both single digit players). The one big nagative was that the clubhouse, pro shop AND the RESTROOMS were locked when we finished the round. At least they should allow access to restrooms!!!

Great Course in OK shape

This is an exceptional golf course. Sadly it seems to be struggling financially as it seems a little run down. The bunkers have little or no sand and the fairways are pretty beat up. The greens are great, however. It has always been one of our favourite courses in Tucson. Fabulous views, very interesting holes and the pace of play is excellent.

Arizona National

One of my favorite golf courses.

I always bring out of town guests here.

Good course, tough course & fun course with great mountain and valley views.

Bring extra balls.

That's where the tough comes in.

You will not be disappointed.

After our round my buddies thanked me for choosing this course and couldn't stop talking about how fun and beautiful it was.

AZ National

Decent shape! Good value! Pace of play was slow that day we played. 5 hour round. Painful. But I ve played here before and it was a 4 hour round. I’ll give it one more chance.

Challenging

Some holes were open but most required an accuate drive or you wiould lose your ball. The views are magnificent but I don't believe any golfer with a +20 handicap will find this much fun.

still love Arizona National

We have played this course on every visit to Tucson. It held up to our good memories. Wonderful views, interesting layout, SUPER fast greens. Helpful staff. We are coming back next week with friends visiting -- they are both single digit players and I'm sure they will love it as we do.

AZ Natl doesn’t disappoint

Always enjoy playing this course. Vistas are the best in Tucson. Highlight of the round is always the tee shot on the 18th.
