About

Holes 18
Type Resort
Style Parkland
Par 71
Length 6435 yards
Slope 125
Rating 69.5

Tubac Golf Resort is home to 27 holes of golf that are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The resort is most famously known for providing the set for the golf movie "Tin Cup." It was most likely chosen for its lush landscape of mature trees and cottonwood groves along with its dry, temperate climate. The Otero/Anza combination features some tricky water hazards. The par-3 ninth hole on the Anza nine has an island green similar to the notorious 17th hole at TPC Sawgrass. The ninth hole on the Otero nine features an expansive lake that runs alongside the left side of the green. In addition to the three golf courses, Tubac Golf Resort also features an extensive practice facility with a driving range, putting green, and practice bunker.

First Impression

I had read how good the course was and basically it was a decent course. A couple of holes were fairly tough, but overall the course was wide open. I think once was enough to play the course, nothing really made me want to return, especially for the price.

Tubac Resort Anza-Otero 18

The course was in great shape and there are strategically place traps and ponds to make it challenging. It is more expensive than some of the other courses in the area, but I got a good rate via Golf Now.

I “Tin Cupped” all over the Tin Cup hole

Our group enjoyed the course very much. Despite recent rain the course itself was very dry and the greens were not receptive. Lost a number of good shots to hard bounces and a lot of roll out. Playing on the Tin Cup holes was neat, and we liked how the course acknowledged the scenes with informative plaques. Without actually trying I managed to drop a bunch of balls on the famous hole. Lunch after was excellent with reasonable prices. The staff throughout the day was exceptional.

Not your normal Arizona course

When you add lots of mature trees ranch setting with cattle, a pretty unique setting. With 3 nines that are all different makes for a fun 18.

Nice course, slightly tricked up in places, but lots of fun. A desert course must have water available in the carts and on the course. No help offered to unload or load clubs. Really need to work with some of the bag staff on friendliness and helpfulness.

No help with loading or unloading clubs. No one put the clubs on carts. Very hot and dry, so for the price there should be water on the carts.

My wife and I love this course. It’s not in great shape and some of the holes are fairly plain but the greens are pretty good and the staff is fantastic. Add in the resort’s ambience and it’s a winner!
