About
San Pedro Golf Course is an 18 - hole championship facility located on the banks of the San Pedro River. The golf course winds through the mesquite and along the banks of the San Pedro on the front nine. The back nine travels through four canyon like settings and finishes up with the 457-yard par four split fairway eighteenth hole. The golf course stretches out to 7187 yards from the tips and there are five sets of tees to accommodate golfers of all skill levels.
The surrounding vistas at San Pedro are unmatched by any other golf club in Southeastern Arizona. From various points on the course, the San Pedro River Basin can be seen and this Mark Rathert design stretches along those river banks to the natural canyon like settings with the Dragoon mountain range in the background. The elevation changes and cool crisp air provide a setting that will bring you back for the challenge.
The bentgrass greens will provide slick playing surfaces with some undulations to test your stroke. The key to play on hole # 2 - is to stay clear from the left side, as the San Pedro comes into play early in your round. Your second shot to this 457-yard par four will test your long iron game! The fifth creates a great approach to the green on this par five. The par four sixth requires precision off the tee, as there are two bunkers along the right side with a narrow approach to the green. The seventh is a cute par three that is followed up with a par four and the 558 yard par five ninth that requires two well placed shots as the right hand side is guarded by a pond as you approach the green. The left side approach is definitely your safety valve.
The back nine opens up with a straight away 400 yard par four followed by a 197 par three with a very tricky undulated green that slopes from left to right. Walk away with a three here and be happy. Holes 12 - 16 will offer you both scenery & challenges coupled with a great test of golf. The twelfth is as good a par four that exists. The tee shot leads you into a narrow area that favors the left side, as this is a slight dogleg right. The second shot will let you know if you can thread the needle as the approach is a gem. Once on this bowl shaped green area you will look back and see the beauty that Mark Rathert carved here. The ride to the thirteenth tee brings you to the highest elevation on the course, where the San Pedro River Valley surrounds you - encased by three mountain ranges including Cochises' Stronghold - where that once heralded Indian and his tribe staked their claim. The 605 yard thirteenth will require position to the right center on both your drive and second shot, as you approach to this green. The fourteenth resembles hole # 12 but is a tad longer. The fifteenth hole is a scenic par three with a drop of 50 feet from teeing area to green. The sixteenth and seventeenth give you a slight breather as you approach the finest finishing hole in Southeastern Arizona - the par four split fairway 457 yard eighteenth hole. Water comes into play off the tee as well as on the second shot to this green that is also guarded by a bunker as you approach the apron.
San Pedro is tough but fair with exceptional playing surfaces and a range of tees (5) that will test golfers of all levels. You won't tire at San Pedro - enjoy the scenery and the natural desert like playing conditions that will soon be heralded throughout the area.

San Pedro Crouse
Fairways were in great shape, however there needs to be work on several greens
Benson Delight
Now under new ownership, San Pedro golf course will in the future a wonderful course to play. A few greens need work and bunkers need sand... I definitely see improvement now under the new course management.. I'll be back
Fun course
Nice layout, tees and fairways in nice shape also most of the greens in good condition. No sand in the bunkers but will play again.
Greens
Course is really fun we enjoy going however the greens are in nasty shape the rest of the course is great.
Nice day of golfing.
Played after lunch, course was open and overall the tee boxes and fairways were in good condition. The bunkers are not maintained and about half the greens have some damage and areas that won't roll true.
Shame
Just passing through and since this was the only course nearby I decided to play it. This course has a lot of great possibility but the greens were in very bad shape fairways not much better.
YIKES !!
It is painfully obvious that the course is being let go with little to no maintanance.
This was a great track but it is close to being unplayable.
Could be the next course to close in Az. sad.
Greens need a lot of work also bunkers have been seeded over
Thank you for reviewing the course. We are in the process of repairing and improving the course conditions. We hope you'll give us another try in the future.
Nice day at Benson
The course was is fairly good shape despite the lack of sand in bunkers and some uneven spots on the greens. The pace of play was too slow at almost 4.5 hours for 18. Nonetheless, this course does not overcharge, so one gets what one what pays for!

Headed in a Better Direction
It's been about a month since I last played San Pedro, and I'm pleased to report that there is noticeable improvement in the condition of the course. Mind you, there's still a long way to go, but there's obviously been plenty of attention given to some of the weaknesses. There are greens that are still infected, perhaps irreparably, but others are much better. A number of the "unforced errors" related to mud and saturation that led to recent frustrations didn't exist today. There are still soggy areas, but it's related more to course design, and frankly, have existed since San Pedro first opened. I must credit the official responsible for course setup (i.e. pin placements, tee boxes) for maximizing playability by steering play towards the better conditioned areas of the course. This was my greatest criticism in recent months.Tee shots were much more comfortable and many of the greens rolled well. For the first time in a while, our group discussions focused more on the positive aspects of the course than its flaws. There remains a lot to be done, and I'm sure the path forward will continue to be long and difficult, but I'm happy that the course is moving in the right direction. Keep it up, fellas! As for myself, and I bet many others in this part of the state, we're rooting for you.
Thank you for your feedback, tommyphils. We are working diligently to improve course conditions and hope you'll continue to play San Pedro Golf Course.
