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.

Go to say you played it if you’re a die hard Tin Cup fan. If not, don’t waste your time.

Tubac

1st time playing this course. It was in good condition minus the falling leaves (it's that time of year).

We played in just under 4 hrs. Not being from this area I'm still getting use brown dormant grass along the fairways. All the staff were very pleasant.

I would absolutely play this course again and again.

Fun course to play occasionally

Staff was great, course condition was relatively good. Pin placements were a bit severe for a resort course. Pace of play reasonable but had to wait some on every hole.

Tubac has always been a fairly decent course. Really like the staff, they've always been nice to me. Course conditions have struggled as of lately but I understand that covid has made it hard. I really reccomend playing from the tips, it makes the course super fun and challenging. Personally, my favorite course is Rancho. I reccomend this course.

Very good after overseading

Excellent condition considering the course had just been overseeded. The greens were mowed and carts were allowed on the fairways and had a great time. I recommend play at Tubac AZ.

RESORT GOLF COURSE

We played the Otero/Ranch courses. Both nines were showing a little of the stress from the overly hot and dry conditions of the summer months. The courses offer plenty of shot-making decisions for any level of golfer. Fairways & greens were in reasonably good condition, except golfers could do a better job of repairing fairway divots and ball marks on greens.
