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.

First trip to Tubac

Excellent place for family outing. We are not great golfers but arrived late in the day so we would not bother anyone. This was great fun for our family of 5. The location is beautiful. The staff and hotel are very friendly and inviting. Definitely worth the trip.

Tubac was excellent, again

I always love playing Tubac. My partner and I had an 8:10am tee time. Chilly at first but it warmed up quickly. We finished our round in 3:24. Great pace! It seemed like we had the course to ourselves. The course was in great shape. The greens were true and fast. Staff in the pro shop, Cantina and the starter were all very friendly. My only complaints (minor) is that it seems the Cantina breakfast shack has had a non-working credit card machine the past 3-4 times I've played here. Prepare to come with cash in case it's not working again. Also, the lunch we had at Stables was good, but it took the cook 2 attempts to get a Reuben sandwich (no cheese, with bacon) and the salad (no blue cheese) correct. They also couldn't (wouldn't) make an omelette for my partner. Come on guys, the place was empty. In a resort that bills itself (rightly) as high-end, making an omelette for a customer shouldn't be a stretch at noon. Overall, a wonderful experience, as always

Great Facility and staffing

Tubac Golf Course is a one stop facility, It has a great cantina for breakfast items and drinks. The restaurant is great and the clubhouse has a great inventory to shop. The staff are great, helpful and service oriented. Really enjoyed the course and seeing cows on the course was quite novel.

Fun course

We played in just over 3 hours. The course was in very good shape especially since it’s the overseed time of year. The pro shop staff were really great as were the outside services guys. It was a very pleasant morning in Tubac.

Tubac CC

Nice shady course unique to Southern Arizona. Very good conditions. Would have been nice if there was notice on their online listing that all practice areas were closed. Would not have had the 8 of us show up an hour early with nothing to do. Slow play and no ranger.

Golf groups were not paced and then became stacked on top of preceding groups leading to uncomfortable situations and waits to tee the next hole.

Fairways still being over watered even after recent significant rains. Mud holes and swamp spots everywhere.

Maybe they are short on employees or money or both but places needed mowing and they haven’t even started on the downed trees and limbs from recent storms. Office staff seemed aloof and reluctant to take care of customers.

This course and club used to be great. Seems like something has changed but not for the better.

Great course

The course is in great shape. The greens are a bit slow, but are soft and really hold shots. The course layout is great and presents interest and variety on every hole. The clubhouse has great merchandise variety and high end lines of clothing and accessories, The staff is fabulous; friendly and very service oriented and helpful.

Love the cantina food and variety of items. Pricing very reasonable and staff very nice.

Very Good Resort Course

Course was not that busy so play moved along pretty good. Tee boxes and fairways were in good shape, yet one notices many non-sanded divots left by players. Greens were soft and rolled somewhat slow. Again many ball marks went without repair. Overall the Anza/Rancho nines are fun to play.
