About

Holes 18
Type Resort
Par 71
Length 6823 yards
Slope 127
Rating 71.7

The Tubac Golf Resort sits along the banks of the Santa Cruz River, providing a lush landscape of mature trees and cottonwood groves. The Anza/Rancho golf course is one of three different 18-hole combinations at the resort, which features 27 holes in total. The Anza's par-3 ninth hole has an island green reminiscent of the 17th hole at TPC Sawgrass. The Rancho nine's fourth hole is known for being in the Kevin Costner golf movie "Tin Cup." It is also home to what has been nicknamed the "Tubac Triangle," a challenging set of holes that includes the longest par 3, par 4, and par 5 at the resort. The eighth hole is part of this set; at 651 yards it is even longer than some of the par 5s on the PGA Tour.

Not worth the money

The only claim of fame is the fact that a movie used a few holes. Not worth going, there are many more and better courses around. I would value the round for half of what I paid, which was supposed to be a "hot deal". Will not come back.

Pricey

Very pricey for the course. Getting the money because of the movie. Even store items were out of line for the same reason. $90.00 for a sweatshirt that is worth $25.00.

Lacking Good Flow

Played with two out-of-the-area friends. Our first time there. Kind of excited to play where some scene from Tin Cup were played. We played the Rancho and Otero nine-hole courses. Rancho has the Tin Cup holes. Course is flat and meanders haphazardly through homes and trees. Greens aren’t framed very well at all and a tree can actually be directly in front of a green you’re going for. Very hard to discern where you’re supposed to hit. They put a five-some out right in front of us which didn’t make us happy. The resort itself appeared very upscale although we did not stay there. Restaurant and bar looked nice. Friendly staff.!

First timer

Overall GREAT experience. There are some thin spots on the greens. Fairways overall in good shape.

Lots of nostalgia in playing the "Tin Cup" course.

A challenging but rewarding course. I really enjoyed the round.

great course, would have liked to known which 9s we were getting before hand

Always enjoy the trip down to tubac. great resort. course was in good condition. it was windy but so was the entire state that day.

One complaint was I had friends in town wanting to play the tin cup holes. Didnt know which 9s we were getting when we got the reservation. Partially my fault for not calling and confirming but would have been nice when signing up to see which courses we were playing.

Tubac Tradition

We try to play Tubac a couple times each year. It’s our tradition to stand at the Tin Cup marker and “dream” the perfect approach shot. Excellent.

Great layout, always enjoy watching the cows. Course is always in good shape. We look forward to our return.

Not worth the money!

The course has a very snobbish attitude. The starter was not helpful. The bathrooms weren't working so the sign in the bathroom told you to use The 5 gallon bucket of water to flush your waste. Never had that experience before. Then the cart stops working on #6. I call the clubhouse and they know about their cart problems - we are told just yo smash the bottom to make it work. If that's not interesting enough, there are hoof prints in the fringe and green and cow pies in the he fairway. What a dump! STAY AWAY unless you are a member. Oops, forgot, my they even set us away from others when serving us lunch.
