Ventana Canyon - Mountain Course

Despite the course being in excellent condition, seeing a bobcat, perfect weather, and a birdie on the 3rd Hole, I have to give this course an overall rating of 2 stars, and that is generous. The first and most obvious problem is the poor signage. Evidently there is some issue with the resort and the golf course management that has led to there not being signs directing golfers to the pro shop - the golfers suffer - sinage_fail - c'mon man!

Once you find the proshop, you have to take a convoluted route down to the practice facility. From there you have to back track to the first tee, again without adequate signage ** plan extra time for this, get there 15 - 20 min earlier than you would **. Pace of play was fine for a resort course - 4.5 hours. Nice views and some wildlife.

The most upsetting and unprofessional part of the operation was at the end of the round. The staff were unfriendly and whisked my golf clubs off to be cleaned before I was ready for that. I told the guy to leave the clubs with me, but he did not listen - ventana_golf_staff_fail - basic customer service stuff - c'mon man.

Have played both the Mountain and Canyon courses and they are equally beautiful. Everything about Ventana is exceptional - course conditions, layout, staff and of course the landscape and vistas. Challenging but playable; little room for error on most par threes. On the pricey side but worth every penny.

We played on a very windy day and it was a very challenging day. Love the course but bring your A game or lots of extra balls. The course is in excellent condition.

Terrific course. Great mix of holes. #3 is cool. Greens were spectacular. Desert course but very generous fairways The staff was also great...from starter to bev staff. Great replay rate too! No reason to not play36. Bonus...Bobcat and other animals. Not the cheapest, but well worth it!

Immaculate conditions. From the rough, to fairways to the greens, all in pristine condition. Some target golf situations but fair with beautiful views. Very friendly staff. Their relationship with the Loewe's hotel makes arrival, bag drop, etc confusing and unpolished but the folks at the course itself fare top notch. And trust them, the putts all DO break away from the mountains!!

Beautiful course,enjoyed playing it,it was slow,but beautiful scenery!

Beautiful, first class course. Everywhere you look is perfection. This course is perfectly manicured and so much fun with just the right amount of challenge!

Great course, spectacular views and superb conditions. A must play when staying in Tucson

This is one of the top 3 courses in the Tucson area. However, guests and staff don't go out of their way to make you feel welcome. This is a good value if you can get it at a discount price, otherwise, make other choices. Always in good condition with great amenities. I hope to play it more if they keep it affordable for guests.

Perfect weather, greens are fast, fairways good, tee boxes all good. No problems whatsoever. Please get some olives for bloody marys! You are the only course in town that has no olives on beverage cart!
