Catalina Course at Omni Tucson National Golf Resort & Spa

The Catalina course at Omni Tucson National provides a wonderful challenge as you play the tree lined fairways. This course has tremendous history and the staff keeps it in great condition. The greens were soft and a little fast...the speed of the greens changed a bit during the round as they dried out in the afternoon. For the most part, the fairways were in good condition with only a few dry areas. All of the staff, from greeters, to Pro Shop and Starter were all friendly and very helpful. After dropping off my bag and going to park, they brought my cart out to me in the parking lot - have not received that level of service in a long while. The course has cold water on just about every other hole so we had plenty of opportunity to keep hydrated. Over-all a very good experience.

There are two courses at Omni Tucson National. The Catalina course is a traditional course like encountered in the midwest with tree lined fairways. The Sonoran course is more of a desert style course. Both are very nice. The public alternates courses with members on opposite days. They have a great practice facility and the spa is very nice.

The staff is very friendly, beverage cart is frequesnt,, shaded parking ramp, and the course and greens are very welll maintined

I have played this course several times and enjoyed my rounds. It is keep in great condition. The staff was excellent. I would like to play this course more often but winter rates are to expensive. I will return next summer more often when the rates become reasonable again. This is my favorite course in Tucson and one of the top courses I have played in California and Michigan. This is what a golf course should be.

your survey rating system poor

great course we enjoy it it is a little pricey

I was treated as a private member from walking up to paying my fees, very friendly staff. Course was in excellent condition and the greens are very challenging.

I played the Catalina course and found the holes to be challenging and over all in great shape. We played just before overseeding occured so a few places were being dried out. The greens were fast and very true which made putting nice. The staff was generally friendly and we had good service from the drinks cart lady.

one of the best courses in tucson, always in good shape.
difficult rough, fast greens, deep bunkers all in all a pro style course.

course had a few problems with bare fairways due to excessive heat this summer. Course working on corrections.

pace of play somewhat slow
practice area very good
people working there cordial and competent
played as a single

Loved it, why am I not getting my usual golf now emails?

Course had very thin fairways (mutliple dirt spots, ungrown areas, etc). Greens were decent, but slow. Just very disappointing to read such great reviews online and remembering the PGA events being there and then showing up for that. Would not return unless major course improvements.

this is an excellent design requiring very exact approach shots to mostly elevated greens. enjoyable to all handicaps, it is a true test of golf for lower handicappers.this course will test everyone and require them to step of their game if they want to score well.

I was a summer visitor to Tucson this year. I went college and lived in Tucson for 16 years in the 1970s & 80s. Back then if you could get on the course yolu were lucky. When you did it was THE best in Tucson. You always wanted to come back. I have not played the course in 35 years. Tucson National has added a new 18 holes since. Both courses are supurb. I played the course whenever I could while in Tucson. The Catalina course has change three holes on the front nine but in my opinion the changes make the course better. 35 years ago, #15 was the only 600+ yard par 5 on the PGA tour. We played it three times this summer. Technology does make it a little easier but it is still a monster. A birdie there is definately a skin in our game. #18 is still the signature hole of the course. It is just one super hole. It takes four good shots to make par. The slightest miss will not cut it. A miss results in bogie or worse. The summer rates for Tucson National are unbelievable. 25 years ago we paid $40 to play. I paid $20 to $30 dollars a round to play National this summer. What a treat.

Played The Catalina course before they closed it for the Senior tour event and the course was perfect in ever way.. The greens were firm and fast. Great layout .
