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.

GREAT DAY FOR GOLF

WE PLAYED FROM 10-1:30, AND THE COURSE WAS CLEAN AND NEAT, GREENS WERE MODERATELY FAST, AND ESPECIALLY SMOOTH. WELL TAKEN CARE OF. DESPITE NOT HAVING RAIN FOR 5 MONTHS, THE COURSE WAS HOLDING UP VERY WELL.

course was in pretty good shape. greens were brown but rolled pretty smoothly, and held well. fairways were fine. front nine was quick, back nine we had to wait a lot, maybe because the back is so much harder, much tighter fairways, lots more lost balls. great service by the beverage cart operator. only suggestion by me is to get rid of all the weeds right at the edge of the fairway. this would be extremely easy, just concentrating on places where balls are likely to go, and just for the weeds closest to the fairways. this would mean fewer lost balls, less time wasted looking, and faster rounds. it would also make the course look much nicer.

Review

Was looking forward to playing the course, but was disappointed-maybe because I did not play well. The greens were in poor condition, as well as several portions of the fairways. Sand in bunkers was inconsistent. Wind was severe on several holes. All-in-all not a pleasant experience.

The course was in good shape, the greens were true and the pace of play was excellent. We enjoyed the course but the cart paths were a bit rough on some of the holes. Overall waws good value for the money.

The course can be challenging

The look of the course is deceiving as the weather makes the greens and fairways look brown and uninviting.

The greens are receptive to approach shots and roll smoothly. The sand traps have plenty of sand. The fairways are wider than they look off the tee.

The only issues were a couple of places that don't drain as well as the remainder of the course and the driving range was not available.

Always an enjoyable experience. Great staff, quick greens, a challenging track. The cart paths were a bit rough, but not a detractor; just look past this quirk of San Pedro and enjoy the golf!

THINK BEFORE YOU HIT

TOO MUCH WATER APPLIED OVER THE CURSE WHICH RESULTS IN TOO MANY WET SPOTS , EQUALS NO RUN (THIS WAS THE CASE LAST YEAR WHEN i PLAYED ) THE GREENS WERE FAST BUT FAIR. A PLEASURE TO PUTT ON BUT UNDULATING CARE IS NEEDED.

I WILL BE BACK AGAIN

We had a great time, course makes you think. The greens are really nice and the layout is very interesting. Lots of wind made the last hole really challenging.

Worth the drive

The course has gotten much better this year. Fairways are in nice condition, over seeded a couple months ago. Greens are fairly fast and true. Much of the rough has been cut back. Plenty of tee boxes for every skill level. Every hole has challenges and rewards.

Cant beat the Price!!!!

We had a frost delay, which was expected when it is 28 degrees at 5am. Lifted by 10:30am, Overall condition was good. Greens in great shape. Fairways were soft and did not produce much roll, but considering the cold temps, it was fine. We started at 12:30 and it was perfect.

Love the course. It has some challenging dog legs and PAR 5 holes. Enjoy and go play!!!
