Canoa Ranch Golf Club

First time playing here for a year. Before that that i have played here MANY times. The tee boxes, fairways, greens were the best I've ever seen here. The traps still suck but every other part was awesome. We played in a little more than 3.5 hrs. The greens were extremely receptive. I love this course.

liked the course layout, pace of play was good, considering the warm weather course conditions were good.

2 things bring the 5 star rating down. The lady in the pro shop is not friendly at all.. Doesn't smile, doesn't greet you, doesn't thank you . Acts if she cared less whether you played there or not.

#2 If you want to eat forget it. Never seen a nice facility that doesn't offer some kind of breakfast. you can't even get a cup of coffee . The restaurant bar doesn't open until 11 AM You would think that they would offer breakfast burrito to go, muffins or something anyway. Even the Tucson city course has something better than this. And I refuse to play the junky city courses.What a waste of a nice facility. The bar tender is great and friendly "Cold Beer" and mixed drinks are good. The food . We ordered a Pecan crusted chicken salad. The chicken was some kind of Processed Meat. Not real chicken. Too Too Bad.

Course is in really good condition given the super hot weather with no rain. Greens roll really nicely and fairways are in great shape. Bunkers need help (but that is almost all Arizona courses). Would highly recommend playing it now while it is in this shape.

Great layout/ design

Greens hold shots

Greens could be faster and smoother.

Only complaint

We play mid day during the heat when we have the course mostly to ourselves. Pace is not slowed and we enjoy it more. Love this place.

I do like playing C Ranch but I get really ticked off when no mention of green punching is mentioned on their website or on GolfNow. The greens had been recently punched and not very well sanded so it will take longer to heal. No discount was given nor was there a sign at the proshop warning of of the conditions.

This place is very fun and a challenge at the same time.

Don’t waste your time all the want is your money and do not care as you are not a member. Never again.

I called on Tuesday afternoon for a Wednesday, May 12th, Tee-Time. I was not told anything about the course condition or the fact that they had punched the greens on the back nine that day. Further, they failed to tell me that they would be punching the front nine greens the next day (the day I was to play).

So when we show up, we're told that we would be playing the back nine twice. Since is was now too late to get a similar tee-time at another nearby course, we decided to play. BIG MISTAKE.

What kind of customer service is it when they don't advise you when requesting a tee time that the conditions won't be what you would expect. I've played this course before and, other than the bunkers being nearly unplayable, it has always been in decent condition and warranted a repeat play. But now, I don't know if I will ever be back (and I live only six miles away). I've played dozens of golf courses in my life and I've been advised, when requesting a tee-time, of overseeding, aeriating, flooding, et. al. numerous times. I was always grateful of their honesty and rewarded such with a future booking. It's unfortunate that I can't say the same for Canoa Ranch.

Arrived 6:30am. Discovered that the front 9 was closed for plugging and sanding. Told we can play back 9 twice, but that it had been plugged and sanded too. We left. Should have had this information before booking.

It would have been great had you or the course had told me the back nine was closed !! I called the course prior to making the tee time.

Course is fun and challenging, however, the bunkers appear to be more Quarry Pit than Sand. Not like there is a dearth of sand in Tucson, it's a desert.

Saw the refreshment cart twice, first time at the second hole, and then at the Clubhouse/Turn.

Pace of play was slow, but it was Mother's Day so no biggie.

Changing hole # from a four to a five will really enhance birdie opps for the average golfer.

Minor inconveniences, I'd play here again

Neither a bombers course nor a short hitters haven. Fairways were mostly good and the greens rolled true.

Pace of play was S L O W, but it was Mother's Day.

Saw the beverage cart twice, once on the 2d hole and at the turn.

Course is laid out pretty well, a couple of goofy holes but overall an enjoyable round.
