MountainView Golf Club at Saddlebrooke sits at an elevation of 3,200 feet, offering both dramatic elevation changes and spectacular views. The course sits at the base of the Catalina Mountain range near Tucson, nestled into the mesquite-covered foothills. Gary Panks, the golf course's designer, saw the potential of the landscape and utilized the many natural hazards. He also incorporated subtle mounding and strategically placed bunkers that blend seamlessly into the natural terrain. Panks created a fair challenge with this layout but the wide, player-friendly landing areas makes the golf course approachable for beginners. The second hole is one of the most scenic holes on the course but it is also one of the layout's more difficult holes. Golfers will find a mesquite-filled wash crossing the fairway before facing an uphill shot to a green guarded by trees and bunkers.

missing article

we were last group on course. Turned cart in to the cart tender and talked to him briefly regarding course.

He told me there was a recent fire and a number of carts were involved. Brief chat of about 1 minute.

When I arrived home, I realized I didnt have my golf shoe bag. I left it in the basket behind the cart seat. I called the pro shop the morning after this incident to ask if the my shoe bag had been found by the cart tender. The pro shop talked to the cart render and was told there were no shoes found from last evening. I find this response ludicrous since the previous days cart tender HAD TO SEE MY BAG in the basket.

Not pleased with the response. Sound like someone liked my shoes and bag. They didnt offer to check the cart receipt with the number on it. Mysterious. First time I have forgotten something at a golf course and not gotten it back.

Surprising Quality Course

I was surprised at the overall quality and play of this course being one of the older ones in Saddlebrooke. Beautiful setting against the mountains, it carves in and out of rolling terrain with a natural setting. Many quality holes with interesting features off the tee or around the green. Not overly long but fair with premium on accuracy, so it's possible to score well here. A few barren spots in the fairways, but overall good conditions and excellent rolling greens. We had the course to ourselves on a Saturday afternoon other then the 40+ mule deer we saw enjoying the Arizona sun. Staff was friendly, carts were in good shape, and the cost was well below the value of this course.

Muggy but cool playing

Always cool to play when virtually no one on course when start at 10:00. Recent rain wiped out most of bunker fortunately only in bunker once. Fairways and greens good conditions. Not a long course, using three wood and hybird off many holes.

Good course for the money

Gorgeous scenery, good layout, disappointed in that bunkers are not drained/raked after a rainfall (like other Saddlebrooke courses). Overall a good experience and still a local favorite!

A Poor Experience

The fairways were in poor condition with many bare spots. The sand traps were not maintained with rock hard sand in the traps. However, the putting greens were in good shape. Too bad the rest of the course was poorly maintained which resulted in my poor golfing experience at this course!!

slow at first

We were called on time to start but, the group in front of us was extremely slow. They would spend as much as 8-10 minutes looking for a ball. This went on for about 6 holes before we just went around them and skipped a hole to pick up our pace. It was 109 degrees and sitting still was not one of our options. No marshal to keep things going.

This course in prime condition.

Very open and inviting to use the long stick all day. Smooth but fast greens.

Pace was a bit slow. 4 hours and 45 minutes to play late on a Saturday afternoon.

Faaaast greens

If you like fast greens that roll true and forever this is your course. they hold well too for being as hard and quick as they are. miss a green and good sand awaits you, not the hard crusty stuff some other courses have.

On the whole the course is a beautiful layout, well kept and a joy to play. the edges are desert and not nice if you venture too far off the fairway. I wish there was more drinking water around the course. Drinking fountains are at each of the full bathrooms on the course.(4 I think).

The courses weaves its way through the neighborhood but for the most part the house are set back enough so that even a wild tee shot doesn't hit windows and patios.

Whatever you do, be below the hole! Can't wait to play it again.
