The Omni Tucson National Resort offers two championship courses that offer two distinctly different rounds. The Catalina Course, the resort's original course, offers a more traditional parkland layout while the Sonoran Course offers a challenging game of true desert golf. Although Catalina is the more famous of the two for hosting a number of PGA Tour events over the years, the Sonoran is just as formidable a test despite being 600 yards shorter than its sister course. Sonoran features a tricky, undulating terrain that is covered with 69 large, strategically placed bunkers. Two lakes come into play throughout the golf course as well. In addition to a number of challenging holes, the layout offers interesting risk-reward opportunities including drivable par 4s. One of the most notable holes is the 15th, a dramatic par 5 that requires a blind approach uphill to a bunkered green.

First Time At Tucson National

Excellent conditions on an extremely windy day in Tucson. The greens are FAST and the green complexes/hole locations were very tough.

Played in 3.5 hours which is refreshing in this day and age when rounds can extend an hour or more longer.

Enjoyed the layout and the members I was paired up with.

Staff was very friendly & helpful.

Will be coming back to play again when in Tucson.

Fantastic outing!

It was an all around solid golf experience - played Sonoran course. Friendly staff, nice practice area, very good conditions with quick greens. Great happy hour - try the fish tacos. Will definitely play here again on future trip to Tucson.

Awesome Golfcourse

The excellent, albeit challenging conditions along with perfect weather and great pace of play resulted in the nicest round I have played anywhere in a very long time.

The courses here are being prepped for a Champions Tour event next week. The greens are smooth as pool tables and stimped out at 12. Lots of blind shots makes your first round here even more challenging. The views from many of the holes are nothing short of breathtaking and the many serious elevation changes add a lot of "wow" factor.

I can't wait to play here again.

Always GREAT

Always a great course to play. Looking forward to the Seniors PGA Tour coming soon. Hope to attend. UA had a match with Colorado State, I think that may have caused play to be slow. Those young guys can really hit that ball. Wow

Beautiful course

This is a beautiful course with some challenges. There are some forced carries over water, elevated greens, and mini sand traps strategically placed around the greens. I played an extremely fast round because it was a windy day and most golfers must have bailed out. Come early and enjoy warming up on the range where balls are provided for you. Carts didn't have GPS, which I expected, but that is not a big deal.

Great new course for our rotation

A group of old friends have been meeting up in Tucson for 7 or 8 years. The guys play golf while the girls go to the gem show or hike around in the area. We've been looking for a new course to add to the ones we've been playing and I think we have found a good one. Very nice course conditions with a good practice facility to warm up on.

Excellent Golf Course

Played the Sonoran course. Fantastic track, very playable and enjoyable versus some of the mountain style / tricked out courses in the area. Course conditions were excellent. Greens smooth as silk. A solid test though not terribly difficult. Highly recommend.

good course, great personnel.

Overall a well maintained course. Fairly flat and moderate in length from the silver tees. A few elevated, bunkered holes were a bit of a surprise considering that otherwise the course was pretty straightforward. Really friendly staff from the folks greeting at the bag drop off, to the folks in the pro shop as well as the waitstaff. All around a fun experience and will return.

Bill's take

Enjoyed the course. Greens are relatively fast. Course knowledge would be helpful, e.g. how far are bunkers, elevation changes. I'd certainly play again.

Quality Course, Superb Greens

This was my first time playing Tucson National - Catalina. Playing from the blue tees was quite challenging and these were the best greens I have ever played on! Staff and facilities are great.

Excellent condition but needs rangers

We arrived early for our 12:40 tee time and were told that there was a 1 hour frost delay. We spent the time waiting by taking advantage of the excellent driving, chipping and putting facilities and having a beer and snack in the bar. All good. When we teed off I asked the starter if he thought we would finish before dark. "Oh sure", he replied, "we have Rangers out there keeping everyone moving". We never saw a ranger and had to wait 10-15 minutes on each hole. The course was in excellent condition and is an interesting layout, but we only got in 16 holes, last 2 in the dark. For the kind of dough they charge and with everyone starting late I would have expected some ranger support

Very nice course, challenging, but for the most part fair. Some blind holes, which made it difficult for playing it first time around.

First time here

This was my first time at this course and I was signed up as a single with a threesome that did not show so that added to the difficulty. And my game was rusty but I still really enjoyed the course.
