Tubac Golf Resort - Rancho/Otero
Rating Snapshot
About
Set on the historic 500-acre Otero Ranch, Tubac Golf Resort near Tucson features 27 holes designed by Red Lawrence and Ken Kavanaugh. The Rancho Nine, which was named for the owners of Tubac's Golf Club in Cave Creek, includes one of the holes that was featured in the movie, "Tin Cup," starring Kevin Costner. It also features a perilous three-hole stretch called the "Tubac Triangle," as well as the aptly named 651-yard, par-5 eighth, dubbed "Train Wreck." The Otero Course, named for the family that established the ranch in 1789, is Tubac's original nine. Featuring beautiful bentgrass greens, the golf course is routed through cottonwood and mesquite groves.

Totally Tubac
Had a great day with friends. All four of us enjoyed a fabulous lunch at Stables Grille. Service, quality and quantity of the food and drink were exceptional. We then proceeded to play Otero and Rancho. Wonderful. Like Costner, we too hit it in the water on #4!
Tubac GC
This is a very nice course, and has a friendly staff. The layout was kinda odd as go go by the club house in hole 5. The food at the Cantina was awesome!
Always a fun course to play.
The new nine which were incorporated into the original eighteen add a lot to the course. The course is in good shape and presents several opportunities to avoid water. One short water hole with everyone eating lunch nearby and watching you....have fun.
Go play
Other than a brief shower the round was most excellent!! And who’s gonna complain about getting a little rain in a desert?
Excellent experience all around
Call before you go. Facilities were closed.
We looked online and booked a round at the Tubac golf resort because they advertised a driving range, chipping and putting facilities that would allow players to warm up prior to their round. When we got there all of these facilities were closed due to maintenance and seeding . There was no Information about this closure on the website. I canceled our round in the clubhouse, and upon leaving ran into two more groups that were coming in after me that were severely disappointed that they were not able to warm up or practice before their round. Call first to make sure the facilities they advertise are actually available.
Nice course
With three, nine hole courses this course is always in excellent condition.
Tubac rocks!!!
Wonderful experience and would highly recommend this course to anyone. Staff was amazing especially Sheila at the desk.
Great layout nice receptive greens and good value.
