Great Value Fun to Play

I was able to play solo and I was not disappointed. The course was beautiful, challenging, and fun to play. After passing one four-some I played free of any slow downs or push from behind. The price and value was outstanding and I look forward to playing there again next time in Tucson. A real golf jewel if 9-holes fits your game. It did for me.

Challenging Course

Not sure what to expect given that it was only 9 holes but was pleasantly surprised. Has a lot of various green layouts (elevated to down grades) making it challenging. A lot of the side line has cactus (that will bite), so you don't spend much time looking for a lost ball. One hole is surrounded on 3 sides by water with steep slopes on the edge of the green, so if you don't place it on the green properly there is a good chance your ball will roll into the water.

I walked the course, which was fairly easy. One pathway from the tee box to green (7th hole) was under repair meaning that I had to walk an extra distance (seemed like a half mile at least). Once that is repaired, walking would be no issue.

Like most courses in the area there is no discount for walking and not taking a cart. It's funny, because in Canada it is extra to take a power cart. Walking is the norm.

Short, Tight, layout

Originally thought this was a 9 hole par 3 course. It actually has 3 3s, 4 4s, and 2 5s, so if you want to play 18, you need to make a second lap. Pretty tight layout even by desert standards. Lots of uphill, downhill shots needed. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. Definitely a place if you’re looking for a nine hole round.

Course in great shape

With the rain earlier this month, the course is lush and green. Best we’ve seen it. Starter was super friendly. Ice in the cart a real bonus. Will be back.
