del Lago Golf Club

I've been playing Del Lago for more than 15 years now and the course has never been in better shape. The sand bunkers need work but ownership and management are addressing that issue. The fairways are firm and well groomed.

The greens are playing about 10 on the Stimp meter. The only real issue is that the players don't fill in their divots or fix their ball marks on the greens.

Great course and conditions were great . Course was in great shape and the beverage girl was great.

Check in staff was very knowledgeable and friendly. The starter "Lou" went way out of his way to make sure we had some knowledge of the course. He even marked the course map to show us the best way to approach each hole. The only drawback of this course we were told is that it's always WINDY!! Today was no exception. There was a very slow group on the course holding several groups up and they had no intentions of allowing anyone to play through. Needs a Marshall to perhaps educate the non-golfer types who are clueless on golf etiquette.

This is a great layout and course designed by Gary Penz out of Chicago. The layout is great and very challenging. One that you can play many times and never get board playing. Unlike other desert courses this one has elevation changes and your shot down between desert hills. Green are great Bermuda and very challenges. Speed probably around 10 when we played. Traps need work but I think all traps on all courses need help. Just a great course for the money and speed of play was excellent at 4:10. One of the best layouts and courses in Tucson. Definitely worth the trip to Vail.

Pace was great and the course was in great condition.

I'm very disappointed in the conditions of the course for the price. I paid $72 (afternoon tee time) and the course played like a $30 hard pan city course. Here are how the conditions played on 3/6/21.

Tee Boxes: 4/5 They where green and well taken care of

Fairway: 2/5 Fairway was green but they buzzed the grass down so short that it was like playing off a hard pan super tight lie. Really hurt my scoring, what happened to fluffy fairways?

Rough: 0/5 Dormant, I really hate that all the courses let their rough die in the winter.

Greens: 4/5 Greens were good but not fantastic. Green speed good although it was on the slow side, but not painfully slow.

Bunkers: 1/5 Terrible bunkers. Large rocks in the bunkers that put gashes in your wedges. I gave up and stopped playing the bunkers after the 3rd hole because they were that bad. If rocks were not bad enough the sand was terrible too.

Overall disappointed in the course conditions. There are a lot better conditions for around $35 or $50 in the area. This is a great course, it just needs some work on the fairways and bunkers. Hope they can get it ready before the summer heat.

I have played this course in all seasons. I have played here for over 6 years. It has always been in better shape than now.. The reasons why would just use up space. It's a nice course in need of some water and some maintenance. It's very playable. But for the money, you could go to so many other places.

We really enjoyed our round and the food and drinks on the patio.

I was in the Army only a few years ago. I was stationed in southern Arizona. I played Del Lago about every 10 days for roughly 5 years. For some reason Del Lago has decided to lower their standards while believing they are better than they are. It's only May; yet the fairways are 50 percent brown dry grass. There is no rough,, there is some sort of concrete like first cut, then there is dirt and rocks-the point? You hit the ball, it hits the brown grass-rolls over the concrete first cut, and into the desert. The greens are like playing on a miniature golf course. The course has a great layout. Some holes are average, others require situational awareness ( aim for the brown dead grass on the hills and use them to your advantage.) It's worth playing once for 58.00 dollars. You will know you have been robbed by the 4th hole, but you will like the challenge.

Tees, fairways and greens are all in great shape right now. Nothing to complain about.

I'm a 25 handicapper so it is challenging , but very fun. the people on the course, as well as those in the clubhouse ar GREAT

Course in very good shape , played in less than 3 hrs

Staff could not have been more pleasant. Fairways and greens in great shape. Bunkers are scheduled for much needed renovation but starter let us know that from the start. Course is challenging but didn’t feel like it beat us up. Would highly recommend.

Course was very well maintained except for the bunkers. For the latter most players either moved the ball for a reasonable placement, or dropped out of the bunker. Fairways were in great shape with very good lies. Greens were in great shape and rolled fast. Also the greens have many various breaks, which really need to be observed prior to putting. Also the course layout challenges each shot so that shot placement is critical. Very enjoyable round of golf.
