Located in Green Valley just a short drive south of Tucson, lies San Ignacio Golf Club. An Arthur Hills design, San Ignacio features well placed grass bunkers, dynamically shaped Bermuda fairways and some of the smoothest greens in Arizona. Known for the friendly nature of the course and the staff, San Ignacio is a favorite among the locals from the retirement community of Green Valley and nearby Tucson. The way the course rests naturally among the canyons, ridges and arroyos of the Santa Cruz River Valley pays tribute to the desert and the commanding views of the surrounding mountains. But be aware, the course can play very tight and any errant shot can fall short into many waiting greenside bunkers.

Needs a little more attention for the prices

I chose to make the trip to play this course again because the winds were ferocious the first time I played.

The layout is great, but a few items need attention to deserve the prices they are charging.

I typically arrive an hour before my tee time to warm up, however, at that time carts weren't available. As the range is quite a distance from the clubhouse, I was forced to wait for cart access. Once I received my cart, I learned mine was one of several that had "chip issues" and GPS would be inoperable (thankfully I had some course knowledge).

I drink very little on the course during a round, but it's nice to have that availability. I was greeted by the "cart girl" on hole 2 and did not see her again the rest of the day. Later, I decided to have a beer and Powerade at the halfway house between the nines, but upon arrival it had been shut down (3 pm on a weekend). So, I had to make the trek back to the clubhouse for my beverages.

As for the course, please put sand in the greenside bunkers. It's nearly impossible to hit behind the ball and throw the ball out with the sand when there is no sand.

To summarize; too few carts, no GPS, no cart girl after noon, no halfway house to start the back nine, and no sand in the greenside bunkers. I would not suggest paying "snowbird" prices for municipal standards.

Want to try again.

On this particular day there were 30 mph winds and our round took 4hr 48 min. We waited nearly 5 min on every shot while 3 women played in front of us drinking way to much. Will try again in the summer when they are in their A.C

Nice Course

Conditions are the best in this area. Pace a little slow because of good weather.

Challenging coure for a beginer

Just started playing, the course was fun to play. Had afternoon Tee time, around dusk the local animals came out. Saw deer, ducks, and around 25 Javelins. Left my share of balls around the course, and in the water.

Every hole is unique and a joy to play. If you are not careful it will bring you to your knees. Just keep up with the group in front and everyone will be happy.

San Ignacio

Course was in excellent shape. Fun and challenging to play.. The signature par 5 hole had a panoramic view of the region that was itself worth the visit. Lots of elevation changes made it interesting. Well worth a game.
