Greens firm, overall course tip-top shape.

One bad review. Rest room on course in terrible condition; mold on outside wall, animal feces in restroom. Also...how about getting water fountains in working conditions. This is not the first time I've written review regarding the above.

Desert Golf at its best

This is a City course carved out of the desert.

Challenging and fun to play. Course favors a straight hitter , if you have a hook or slice going on take plenty of balls with you. You may lose 6 and find 12😊😊😊.

Staff are very friendly and willing to help you.

Would recommend this course 👍👍

Nice round

I enjoyed the course.

First time playing.

It is an interesting layout and fun course to play.

Greens and tee boxes and fairways in good shape.

Winter conditions with rough and surrounding turf left to go dormant.

Good value and I will plan to play again.

Very good for a city course

This is a good course. I enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and layout. It isn’t very long. But it is challenging. Some of the tee shots require hitting a target area instead of just hitting driver. It was fun!

Fun but tricky

Great course but you have to hit straight or your ballistic the desert. Staff at course are very helpful and friendly.

Course needs to put the ball washers, that were removed during Covid, back out on the course.

AHSUM!

Course is in great shape. Hurry out and play it before everybody else finds out how AHSUM the place is playing. As all us Tucsonans know sand traps are typically terrible…. Well, even that’s in good shape. Go play! You won’t be disappointed-

Always a Challenge

The variety of holes on this challenging course make it a real treat to try to conquer. You need to be very accurate off the tee as there is a lot of target golf involved. Take several balls with you and don’t spend a lot of time looking for stray balls, but accept the penalty and keep moving to keep the pace of play where it should be.

As Reported By Others, the Course Has Improved

We play this course once a year, and we had heard from local players that the course had received improvements. We thought the fairways, bunkers, and greens were all in better shape yesterday than they were last year. We really like this course. I can see why local golfers like playing it on a regular basis year-round. If I lived in Tucson, I'd play it regularly, too.
