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.

All around good time

It’s been years since I have been out to Lago.. it’s a fun course and if you tend to hit it all around…they have cleared some desert areas to help w forgiveness. They are just coming out of over-seed so expect soft and somewhat inconsistent conditions. We were cart path only and still got around in just under 4 hours… a few more days and that restriction will be lifted. So,,, if you haven’t been out to Del Lago in awhile give it a go. If you live in the area go twice!

Wait until it grows

This course needs more time after overseed to grow. They unfortunately permitted singles and twosomes out by themselves.early Saturday morning. Really jammed up the flow. When questioned the ranger said they refused to join others. Sad that they were able to dictate the pace of full foresomes. Fun layout and challenging course and will consider again after grow time.

Dead cart.

My cart had a weak charge. I was just able to nurse it through from 6 to 8 but had to skip 9 to take it in for replacement.

Unreasonably slow

There was a 3 to 4 minute wait on every shot. Front 9 took almost 3 hours. Course was not that busy though. It turns out there was a huge gap a few holes ahead as two groups were holding things up. There was a ranger on course, but apparently was occupied doing something else.

Maintenance crew

Most courses you play the maintenance crew will stop the loud noise makers when you are going to hit a shot. Not this place. Business as usual. Shredding trees, driving carts toward you on fairway when you are about to hit a shot.

What happened?

Fairways were totally dead grass and pace of play was horrendous. Usually love del lago but something is going on. Cart kept almost dying on us and waited on every tee box for 15 minutes.

Nice layout / Decent value

Love the course layout. Gold tees for high single-digit handicap were perfect. Bunkers are crap - like most public courses. Greens were pretty good for a muni. Cart paths are beat up - get on grass ASAP. BRING YOUR OWN WATER!! There was none on the course and we only saw the beverage cart once - on the 9th hole and not at all on the back. Any hotter and it would have been a significant problem.
