About

Holes 18
Type Resort
Par 73
Length 6951 yards
Slope 141
Rating 73.7

The Club at Starr Pass offers 27 holes of championship golf that have been host to legends such as Arnold Palmer and Phil Mickelson. The holes are divided into three nines that are played in three different 18-hole combinations. One of these combinations is Coyote/Roadrunner. Coyote is the club's signature course and while the Roadrunner nine might be the shortest, it has plenty of elevation changes. Both golf courses are carved from the scenic Tucson Mountains, providing golfers with a diverse landscape that is abundant with jackrabbits, quail, and deer. In addition to the three nines, there is also a double-loaded driving range and a practice area with putting and chipping greens.

Course in pretty good shape

Fairways, greens & bunkers were in very good shape. Tee boxes were in really rough shape. Talked to employee after round, & they have plans to soon fix this problem. Pro shop has been completely redone, & restaurant at the clubhouse will soon be open for dinner.Staff are super friendly at the course, & I would recommend this course for intermediate to advanced golfers. I know I’ll be back soon.

First Time Playing

Starr Pass, first time playing

They are almost done with clubhouse renovations, which is the only reason I gave them 3 stars for the temporary pro shop. Course was in great shape. Staff were very courteous and attentive. The course is no slouch with many changes in elevation. It demands a good deal of accuracy as well. It was an enjoyable challenge! I would absolutely play it again when in the Tucson area.

Need some rain.

The course was very dry. Greens were good but fairways were struggling. The remodeling of the club house impacts the whole experience. Temporary restrooms were less than pleasant. Looking forward to the course and clubhouse getting back to normal.

Challenging and beautiful course

This course has wonderful views. The holes are all very creative and challenging. It requires excellent ball control to avoid hazards and missing the often tight fairways.

Great Golf Experience

play more than 50 courses each year. I decided to drive to Tucson, after playing a couple of new tracks in Sedona. I took advantage of a GolfNow special on a Tuesday afternoon and played Rattler and Coyote. The course exceeded my expectations. This was probably the best overall golf experience Ive had since Palm Springs. The fairways, tee boxes and greens were immaculate. But the design, topography and scenery were mind blowing. Nearly every hole was worth photographing. The abundance of wildlife only enhanced the overall enjoyment.

Mixed Experience

Starter Randall is exceptionally positive, approachable, and helpful.

“Rattler” fairways and greens are in excellent condition.

Spectacular vistas.

Wildlife everywhere this time of year. Unbelievable, actually.

Some tee boxes are a mess. Driving range stations have little grass. Disruption of Pro Shop and the dining room during renovations will disappoint anyone familiar with the previous facility … and will probably infuriate anyone vacationing at Starr Pass for the golf experience.

Fabulous views and course design.

Greens are in great condition.

Fairways need work.

Driving range needs attention, too.

Always enjoy the course

The only thing that didn’t work this time was I needed to grab a bite. The food truck needs better organization. The club house credit card terminal needs to work !
