Canoa Ranch Golf Club

I paid at the course and was very surprised at a $5 fee to process credit card and another $5 fee for watering the course. I had played the course 2 weeks prior , but since I paid online then, I diidn''t pay these fees.

The fairways and greens were as hard as a parking lot, so they are not watering the course with that money.

There were rocks the size of tennis balls in the bunkers instead of sand.

Not a good experience at all!

Have not played Canoa Ranch in several years; remember it as a challenging golf course in very good condition. However, recently when playing noticed how much the course has deteriorated in conditioning, as if no one is doing anything to maintain quality. All of the sand traps were dirt and rocks, not one had sand. Appeared they were not watering the course properly and the rough was hardpan. I had my golf group there of 16 players and all of them made sure I heard how disappointed they were that I had selected this course for our annual get away event. We should have been given advance notice of all of this, especially sand traps. Our green fee was suppose to have been a reduced rate, but was much too high for the quality of the course.

The face of play was terrible. When we got to eighth hole there were 3 groups waiting. No ranger ever came around and there was no beverage cart.

I think the reason this course only charges $40 for 18 holes with a cart is because it is so difficult. Unless you are a regular breaker of 90, you will find this course VERY challenging.

Great course! Amazing views! Will definitely be going back!

Great layout and views. Sand traps are terrible. We will not even play out of them. Hard and full of rocks, will tear up your clubs.

Worth the drive to play the best layout course with Awesome holes. Loved every minute of this golf course in the Hills of southern Tucson. Highly highly recommended.

I have played here 3 to 4 times a month for 6 months and more than half of those times the course did not offer a beverage cart while playing. The price you pay to play should include a cart everyday. Yesterday was 95° with no cold beverages available AGAIN! If this happens again, I will go elsewhere that has more hospitality to golfers in hot weather. GET A CART OUT THERE!

I had high hopes for this round. The service was great and the course was in good shape overall. Unfortunately, the bunkers were filled with rocks instead of sand, so I avoided playing out of them to protect my clubs.

The real problem started on the back nine. After hole 9, the pace of play came to a standstill. I was stuck waiting on three groups ahead of me before I could even tee off. By hole 10, the backups were so bad that the groups behind me were also stacking up. It got so bad that I ended up quitting and couldn't finish my round. It was incredibly frustrating.

After driving over an hour to play, I had to walk off the course without finishing my round. It’s disappointing to invest that much time and not even be able to complete the experience. This course has potential, but the pace of play needs serious attention.

Although it worked out for me I’m fairly sure that my ball was not meant to roll right through sand free bunkers. Apart from this I think that this course is a most enjoyable golf challenge.
