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.

Tubac

Very nice course, greens were very receptive and fairways we're wet, but played fairly.

Would play there again anytime.

Tim Cup

Very nice course. Course conditions were great (other than the rain storm we encountered), fairways and greens were in pristine condition. Don’t let the short par 3 and several par 4’s fool you. Very challenging course if you get in bad position. Play smart and you will be rewarded with a low score. The 9 holes where some of the scenes from Tin Cup was filmed was being worked on but nonetheless a beautiful course to put on your list to play.

Golf at Tubac Country Club

Always a pleasure to golf at this course due to the beautiful setting and relaxing atmosphere. The conditions were wet due to the rain the night before, but that was expected. We look forward to golfing there again soon.

Great Saturday morning round

Teed off at 7am on a Saturday and had a great round. Truly one of the best courses in Southern Arizona. Course is well maintained and the layout is fun and challenging. Also nice to play the Tin Cup hole. We’ll be back soon.

Over hyped course

Got a good deal on Golfnow but wasn't worth the hour and 15 min drive. Lost a few balls in the middle of the fairway where grass was over grown. Greens were ok very soft. but the fairways need work. I was expecting a resort course to be in better shape.

Vanishing act

Good course, fairways and rough were shaggy. Lost a few balls due to shaggy grass, “Tubac triangle” and some dudes that picked up our balls. Members are always snotty and don’t move very fast. Other than that, had a great time.
