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.

Getting better

I have played 100+ rounds on this course and it is actually really starting to improve. The course layout is probably the best in Tucson but that condition has had some challenges. It definitely is improving and the greens are probably the best they’ve ever been in the last three years. Still a little slow, but lots of grass and you can. Judge the speed after a little bit of practice. Cost is phenomenal and you should definitely give it a chance for the money. You won’t be sorry.

Love this course, but....

1. Needs ice cold water available on course. The only water available is at two restrooms. Just out of the tap.

2. Needs ball cleaners on course.

3. Cart beverage intermittent and sometimes non existent in summer.

Nice course

A well played out, well maintained course with plenty of hole varieties. Every staff member both inside and out were wonderful to deal with. A highly reccommended facility for those bored with their usual playground.

Fairways in rough shape

Nice layout. Interesting holes. Might try again in Fall or winter if there were reviews saying fairways in better shape. Most greens in good condition- just a bit slow.

Needs Maintenance

Tee boxes were pretty beat up & rough & sand traps need improvement. Too many large rocks, hard on golf clubs.

Fairways were good, greens OK.

Having said all that, I still enjoyed the round & may play again, mainly because price is very reasonable.

Great course and staff.

The course was in great condition (from tee boxes, fairways to greens). The staff (pro shop, cart boys, and course ranger) were all pleasant and very helpful.

Fun course to play

This is a fun course to play, great views, desert style with a decent amount of challenges to keep you focused, without being overbearing. Plenty of tees to chose from, just choose wisely. Greens are healthy and playable, even with the recent high heat conditions. This is one of the better public courses in the Tucson area. Go enjoy a round!
