As Nat

Conditions were a bit rough. Fairways and rough patchy. Bunkers ungroomed, weedy, and hard. Greens very good. I have played here a lot and today was the slowest play I can recall.

Great course. Bad course management

Love this course but we were backed up 2-3 groups deep at each tee box which means the Marshall wasn’t doing their job. Probably wouldn’t play here again if that’s the consistent rate of play

Don’t bother

Booked via GolfNow.. first guard at the gate very rude, treated us like criminals. Checking in no one explaining the course. Paid for 18 played the first hole hit a back up already. We played 5 holes in 2 hours back up on every hole. We quit no marshal no beverages nothing. Went to the clubhouse to try and get a refund for 9 holes, even though we only played 5 got blown off and told we were within the pa e of play. 2 4 Somme’s before us on every hole what a joke, course is not in good condition. I will be disputing this charge on my card, I. Have never been treated so poorly and had such a bad experience so many better courses total waste of time, gas and money. You should be ashamed

Grass transition taking hold!! Great layout!!

I played the course a few weeks ago, just after the winter rye burned and summer grass was struggling. The grounds crews plan is really starting to show results. Greens are very good and the rest of the course is staring to boom! Layout is always camera worthy!!! Best value in Tucson!

Good time

First time playing and it was a good time. Course condition is about a 4. Greens were nice and fairways were patchy but still pretty good. Staff was great and very friendly. Only negative to this experience was no drink cart and no water stations. We are playing in July at 11:00am and no drink stations seems just crazy to me. So make sure to bring plenty to drink or you will run out with no where to fill up. Pace of playe was very slow to but not a bit deal. Didn’t let it ruin our day.

tough shape

Greens were decent but slow. Fairways and tee boxes were in bad shape. Not sure what happened to the course, but needs a lot of work. Not worth the drive, except for the views.

Fairways need some work.

Course is in decent condition. The fairways are bald on a few of the holes, but the greens are in good shape. Overall I would give the course a B.

Slowest Round of Golf Ever Played

The course was dry, greens were in bad shape and were slow. If they are trying to compete with other top course in Tucson they are failing. Entering through the guard gate the guard was very rude and not polite. The course needs a ranger as there were slow players in front and no one to push them along. A round of golf should take about 4 hours not 6 hours. I will not be returning. The greens seemed to be terrible, no breaker, hard. Just terrible.
