Rating 70.5

Situated between the Catalina and Rincon Mountains, Forty Niner Country Club runs alongside a wooded riverbed. The golf course features fairways lined with mesquites, giant cottonwoods, eucalyptus trees, and weeping willows. Desert shrubbery also lines the fairways. The course has a traditional layout that sprawls across gently rolling terrain. It's a nice walkable golf course but it's not easy. Rather than distance, this course requires accurate shot placement and careful strategy in order to maneuver the tricky doglegs and subtly elevated greens. The most difficult hole on the course comes early on. The par-4 fifth is an only seemingly narrow hole but the double-tiered green has a dramatic slope right in the center. Forty Niner Country Club finishes with a par 3 that requires a carry over water. If played smartly, it offers a great birdie opportunity.

Very Mediocre at best…

We live here and play all over Tucson , Phoenix and between. This course isn’t in the Top 50 I have played here. U can pay the same price at El Con and it’s far better. a 4 star??? That’s laughable

Great value

I've been going here once or twice a week since September and I always have felt welcomed. I started at the end of our wettest year on record.The course was excellent then and it still is today. Staff is great too.

We love forty niner

We keep going back when in Tucson. We really like course layout. The staff is friendly, courteous, welcoming. This trip we didn’t eat, but have in the past and food was good. It’s a great tract.

Confusion atthe start.

Like i said, no starter and thecarts were lining up when they felt like it. Once a starter showed up it was ok. Very slow at first, but then picked up as we went.
