del Lago Golf Club sits at an elevation of 3,400 feet, enjoying a temperature that is five degrees cooler than Tucson in the summer, which makes a big difference under the hot Arizona sun. Winding through the hills and valleys of the high desert, the golf course features over 120 feet of elevation changes that present tricky uneven lies. The dramatic undulations also offer beautiful views of the Rincon and Santa Catalinas Mountain ranges. Golfers start at the highest point on the course and then play down into the valley before getting to the back nine, which plays along the Pantano Wash. The first hole is the only forced carry on the course, the remaining holes are friendlier off the tees. Seven lakes dot the golf course, coming into play on six holes, and there is also heavy bunkering around the greens.

Course was well maintained

First time at this course. Staff was very friendly and helpful on how to get around the course. Fairways are in great shape, the greens were a little challenging and the ball rolled true. We will return.

Three Strikes

Actually enjoyed playing del Lago. On the bright side, the fairways and greens are better than average. Driving range and practice facilities are also excellent. However, the gentleman in the golf shop had an attitude (Strike 1). The “bunkers” are a combo of mud, clay, rocks, and a little sand mixed in (Strike 2) Finally, although course ranger was onsite, pace of play was excruciating due to the guy in front of us teaching his friends to play golf for the first time, resulting in a 5.5 hour round (Strike 3) This course has real potential but has work to do to be compared to the best.

Well worth the drive

The thing I like the most about Del Lago is that no 2 holes are the same. Great target golf course. Bunkers need work however. Will continue to play a couple of times per month this winter.

Finally added sand!

Del Lago continues to improve! It appears that all the bunkers I found throughout the day finally had real sand added - not just rocks like in the past.

Only bummer was a 1hr delay due to frost, but they worked hard to get everyone out as soon as possible. Pace of play was great. Didn’t need to really wait on the people in front of us, and never felt rushed either.

Looking forward to my next round!

I was very disappointed that no one in the pro shop knew how to ring up a check for payment Not even the manager. After about 10 minutes of fumbling around and trying to figure this out, I finally gave them a credit card, which I hadn't wanted to use. Maybe train your staff better.

Course was ok, not in the best shape we've ever seen it.

Price was fair.

No service

Arrived for our tee time only to find a sign on the pro shop door stating the course was closed for the day. Restaurant staff found a pro shop person who advised the course was closed due to the ground being frozen. Pretty sure the ground isn’t frozen after one night two degrees below freezing. Also no frost on the ground whatsoever. Told her that we had a tee time through golf now, to which she replied that golf now should have told us the course is closed. So called golf now to cancel. The gentleman said he would have to call the course to confirm the closure. He couldn’t get through but the restaurant told him the pro shop was closed. Shoddy customer service by this course, excellent customer service by golf now.

Love the layout. They have removed a lot of brush since I was there last. Looks good. Most tee boxes show a lot of wear though.Hope to get up that way again soon.

Nice, but

This is a beautiful course that is typical desert course. If you hit it straight it is playable, but off line is very unforgiving. We had a frost delay that may have contributed to the slow play, but even so 5 hours is too long. Price is very competitive with other courses in the area.
