The Club at Starr Pass - Gambler/Pioneer

The bunkers were well maintained. Fairways and tees were also in good condition. Many greens were not in good condition. Patchy and bumpy. And the greens were cut too short and fast for their condition.

Layout was short and annoying. Too many toyally blind tee shots from the back tees. Not a course I would like to play again.

Service was ok. Only saw the beverage cart once. Probably good, as there weren't any on-course bathrooms lNot good, as the layout does noot take you by the clubhouse between 9's.

Overall, not worth $125 green fees. Not really even worth the $65 Hot Deal price.

For the green fees charged, $180, I was expecting a really interesting, challenging layout. It was a very typical desert course and I’ve played it’s equal for half the price. Course was in good condition, pace of play was fine and the clubhouse/restaurant were more than adequate. At $100-125, I would have given this 4 stars, but it is over-priced.

First time playing Starr Pass and thought it was in great condition. Tough course though so suggest being sensible with your tee choice. Done great views from the whole course but especially from the 7th tee. Only issue was pace of play with groups infront thinking they were playing The Masters with the amount of time they took!! Why no marshall to keep things moving? If back in Tucson I’ll be back.

Had a great round and thoroughly enjoyed the time there. We showed up and unfortunately breakfast wasn’t being served at course on Mondays or Tuesdays so we shuttled up to the Marriott.

Golf expensive today thanks to changes and Covid so at $150 I felt like it was well priced compared to other places for it. $150 is still a lot for golf though compared to what we used to pay.

I played rattler/roadrunner and I was thankful for the gos in the carts indeed.

Course is in great shape except the greens! Love this place regardless.

As always the course was in good shape. Need to turn the bunkers over. Sand is to compact. Thx

We played this course during a mini vacation to Tucson during the busiest time of the year (March). Pace was good and the courses were beautiful and in amazing shape. Seeing a lot of wildlife was a bonus. We would definitely love to play at Starr Pass again.

Very nice Tucson area golf course. Great vistas and plenty of wildlife. The greens were very fast but playing later in day they were fairly bumpy due to earlier groups not repairing pitch marks.

The greens were extremely fast and hard. Any short iron shots would not hold green and would release over the green. I believe they actually dye the greens with emerald green dye as the grass is a little thin on greens. The fairways are overseeded and played very fast as well. The dormant grass off fairways was hard pan and balls errant tee shots would roll off into desert fairly quickly.

During our afternoon round we saw roadrunners, bunnies and a group of about 12 wild pigs near the green in the desert on hole 12.

One thing about layout is the routing from at the turn from 9 green to 10 tee box you are about a mile away from clubhouse so make sure to bring your own snacks and Gatorade in your golf bag. There are a few rest rooms and porta potties on course if you need them.

There are some changes in elevation and many holes have beautiful vistas looking towards downtown Tucson.

We also saw several Military fighter jets on their way to do maneuvers and probably saw and heard the jets on more than half the holes, very cool if you enjoy seeing that type of thing.

Fun golf course, if you can get a hot deal time

It’s a very good value for the nicely manicured desert course. Plenty of saguaro.and prickly pear cactus along with other desert plants .

Very enjoyable round we got around in 3:30 minutes as a threesome so pace of play was very good for us.

Course conditions were good for this time of year. The fairways were green and very playable. The greens were e receptive and rolled nicely. The rough was dormant but lush enough to allow recovery shot without too much trouble.

Staff, restaurant, and practice facilities were above average. Bring your friends!
