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.

Don’t bother playing here

This course is a joke, was quoted $89.00 rate to play, when I arrived I was charged $120.00. When I questioned the rate the staff person said “oh well sorry”.

The range was a mess, barely any grass on the range tee, ground was so hard you couldn’t get e tee in the ground.

The course was even worse, hardly any grass on tee boxes, again ground so hard cannot get e tee in the ground.

Greens are awful, sod patches everywhere. Greens are hard and do not hold a shot.

Terrible layout, terrible conditions, terrible staff!

Rude Staff, Overbooked Course

Checked in 45 minutes early for my tee-time, fat guy working the counter in the pro shop, which was in a temporary trailer, was rude. He didn’t say hello, didn’t say thank you and when I asked why a glove cost $35, he said, “we could double the price and still sell just as many“. They were low on golf carts which delayed our tee off by about 20 minutes as well.

On the back nine, a male Karen homeowner who was irate that a group prior to us had hit a ball onto his property. He was standing guard, and when I walked over to the left part of the fairway near him, he said “you’re lucky you didn’t hit that ball onto my property. You’d be extracting that golf club from your ***.

The golf course is beautiful, the property is beautiful, but the rude staff, overbooked course, and the homeowners absolutely ruin the experience.

Great Day

Had a great day golfing at the Starr Pass golf course. The course was challenging for us, however the weather was beautiful. I would golf at the course anytime I can find reasonable rates.

Thank you

Tees had quite a few bare spots and the greens were a little bumpy at times. The layout is beautiful and very playable. I found it strange that the sand bottles for filling divots were full of pretty large rocks. I can't give enough praise for the honesty of the cart staff that found, secured and returned my buddy's wallet that was left in our cart

A bit disappointing!

Would have been nice to have been told that they are undergoing major renovations and under construction before we spent $250 to play! No clubhouse, no bar, no pro shop, except for a little trailer, and port-a-potties only! The greens are in horrible shape and the fairways mediocre. They should have at least offered some sort of a discount! Supposed to finish renovations in June we were told, just in time for 110 degree temperatures!
