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.

Golf course is awesome as always. Car paths need work and rain damage is pretty obvious.

Love playing this course!

My wife and I love playing the Tubac golf courses. We played the Otero and Anza nines this time. Both were in great shape. The greens were excellent. The only issue was a swarm of bees that had taken over a couple of the bunkers on two holes. The atmosphere is old school and very inviting. Staff is great. Highly recommend having lunch and or dinner in the Stables restaurant after your rounds.

Worth the drive - one of the best in the Tucson area

Always in good condition. Greens are soft, but don't roll slow or too fast. I always look forward to coming back.

Amazing Experience!!

If you go 30 min south of Tucson, you will find yourself a real golf gem. The staff is uber friendly and helpful. The course is in great shape- so nice and green. Speaking of the greens, they were rolling great. Let me get up and down all day long. Out the door in 3.5hrs! Great job Tubac Gold Resort, you guys delivered HUGE on the golf experience. Do yourself a favor and book a round!
