Great course lousy experience

Great golf courses however, the pro shop staff were incredibly cantankerous ruining our experience therefore the dismissal rating. I thought it was a one off and just a bad day for the Pro Shop employee however, we played there 3 times this past week and each time we were greeted by the same unprofessional, and cantankerous behavior.

Visual tough

Rattler is tough off the back tees to see where to go Roadrunner is far more visually playable. Course is in great shape, views and wildlife fantastic deer everywhere we even had a Bobcat in a fairway! Overall a very pleasant experience.

Great course in good condition.

We had a fun day on the course. Only warning would be blind tee shots from the back tees make it tough on a first time player.

Great value for money

Excellent course and challenging. Great views and wildlife. Saw deer, road runners and a coyote. Driving range is included and the carts have GPS. Overall a great deal, especially if you get a hot deal of Golfnow.

Great Desert Course

One if the best desert courses in Tucson. In great condition. Very fast greens and challenging for every level of golfer. Wonderful scenery as well. You wont be disappointed but may end up with far fewer balls in your bag then when you started.

Great Desert Layout

We were happy to find that our timeshare is just up the street from the clubhouse here. Starr Pass is a great, fun, desert course near Tucson.

This course can get a little tight in spots, but it is not too unforgiving since it it not very long. You will need to hit some precision shots in spots to keep scores low.

Great variety of holes that meander through the beautiful landscape. The overseed in the fairways and greens had taken quite nicely, so the course was in very good shape. Hoping to make this an annual trip down to Arizona to enjoy this course!

Great Walking Course

I have always loved the layout for Starr Pass. The quality has really improved over the past couple of years. It is in the best shape I have seen. At $25 to walk it’s the best bargain in town. We walked in under 2 hrs. Highly recommend it for value and quality.

Not for the High Handicapper

Not for the high handicapper, course layout is unforgivable to even semi-errant shots. What would be first cut of fairway rough ends up in the canyons. Bring a lot of golf balls.
