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.

The course was in good condition except for the abundance of leaves. I was lucky but my playing partner lost three balls and spent many minutes looking for his ball and I know he was very frustrated.

Great course

The course was in great condition. The starters were wonderful and friendly. That being said the front desk needs some customer intervention as being welcoming and friendly. I hope someone from management reads this because it's important that the customer feels welcome weather he or she is a member. A smile and recognition that you're there is extremely important to any business big or small. Remember you never know who you are talking to just because you're not dressed in the latest fashion.
