love the history
Love the historical side of this course and what part of it that is still present. What's sad is that they haven't put any sand in the traps since it opened in 1929! I mean... really!? There's thousands of square miles of sand surrounding Tucson!!!! I'm DONE getting rattled cuz I sent my bunker shot to the next tee box. From here forward, I will take my ball out of the trap (and not rake the trap just like the last 50 people who didn't) and place it on the grassless area outside the trap.
COME ON!!!!! I'm being cynical while trying to instill some sort of sarcastic humor in this, but this course deserves more love than what is being given to it. I love this place, have for a few years now, but it's evident once the snow birds are gone, it's allowed to suffer... until it's time to prep for their return in fall. Of course, we've all heard about Romero's desires to turn it into a park. Hmmm. I wonder?
Worth it for the price
I had my best score because the fairway was kind of dry and my ball kept on rolling!😆
The staff is great!
Course in horrible condition
Course in horrible condition. Dirt cart paths very rough, sometimes covered in water and mud. Hard pack around greens and off fairways - often just dirt no grass. Sand traps mostly lumpy baked hard mud. Paid $18 with a special and that might have been too much
Fairly easy layout
We had fun but the course was in just OK condition. It would be nice to have water available somewhere along the course. If I recommended this course to a friend it would be with a caveat that it’s not in the best shape and only if they got a “Promotional“ price.
Save your money.. It’s overpriced
First time playing this course. Paid $40 for a 4pm tee time. They charge a Ride along fee for passengers?? For the quality of the course they shouldn’t be charging this much. I’ve been to other courses in Tucson which are in far better shape. Note that they have frisbee golf on this course. I got stuck behind a group that wouldn’t let us pass.
Go somewhere else! I definitely won’t be returning. 👎🏻
Great course
Great course . But you guys here at golf now charged me a non resident fee . Which was 20 more dollars . Not cool!!
Best greens in tucson
El río is one of the best kept and maintain courses I’ve played here in town, even better than the pricy ones
Fun!
For a public course, it was in pretty good shape. Greens were HARD! Pace of play, not so good. We offered to let a single play with us, but he wanted to play by himself. So we let him do it. All that did was slow us down, because he had to wait for a foursome in front of him. Not the course's fault. Just a rude golfer.
