MountainView Country Club
About
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.

Quick and cool 7/20/14
Played in just over 3 hours! Course was in great shape in advance of work closure this week. Range and practice areas are excellent! A great day of golf!
Had a good time
Greens alittle rough. Overall course was in pretty good shape. Play was somewhat slow. I will definitely play the course again.
Enjoyable round of golf.
The course is in pretty good condition, with just a few bare spots in the fairways. The greens are in excellent condition. Even the bunkers are better than they have been in the past. There are still a few things that need to be improved, but the course has come a long way in the past year.
Mountain view course
This course was beautiful. It rained, thunder, lightning, on our first try, but then the course was staff was great and worked it out so we could play later in the afternoon.
No beverage cart
Played on a Sunday, it was very hot and muggy, no beverage cart and very few spots to get water. Come prepared or get dehydrated.The course was in good shape and played under 4 hours.
fun course with many challanges
An extremely challenging course with a variety of obstacles. sloping fairways makes shot placement a must. a lot of fun for any type of skill. Will definitely play here again.
Seldom see GREEN frm TeeBox
Too many Dog Legs, and DITCHES...with NO advance warnings
Worth the Drive
Well worth the drive. A little out of the way. Not the hardest of tracks, which is cool, gives you a chance to have a good score. Rate was really good, great value. The views are nothing short of spectacular! One of my favorites of the week on my vacation.
Retirement Community Golf Course
I live in this community, so I play this course often. Right now, we have summer conditions. The fairways are dry and have resently been aerated, as have the greens. But the course plays well, and GolfNow prices are reasonable.
northside gem!
Mountain View and the Preserve are 2 of the best courses in tucson for the $$$. They are typically priced aggressively due to their location way up north in catalina but the drive goes quick and the quiet beautiful location is worth every minute of driving. The course is a bit shorter due to the target age of players but remains very challenging with many elevation changes and cool hole designs. It is one of the best maintained courses in tucson. When other courses are struggling to keep up with the weather mountain view and preserve always out do the rest. Staff is great most of the time and carts are always tip top. Nice DR and putting. No complaints. Golf here 20 times a year. Thx everyone. It's only a little bit longer till they start pulling in the Northwest crowd... the town is moving in your direction!
This course is in great condition
Pace of play was great; one hole was under repair but worked out fine..
Awesome course
Played early Sunday at a great rate! Well kept, challenging course with spectacular views of Santa Catilina mountains . Might be the best kept course I've played all year. Make the drive, you'll be glad you did.
Stock up on drinks befor tee off- no beverage service during summer..
Good greens
For the most part the course is in excellent condition.
I was disappointed that we weren't told that #11 was under construction.
Water
This course was great but needs more drinking water on the course. They need to keep in mind that it's the summer desert in Arizona ........HOT!!!
Mountain View experience
Well kept course, friendly staff, great pace of play.
Mowing
They had done mowing but left large piles of grass around which stopped the ball. Fairway didn't matter but it shouldn't have been in front of the greens.
Mountain View Golf course is Great.
Great course and close to home. The course was in good shape and pace of play was good.
This course has great mountain views
Enjoyed the course. There are a lot of different type holes with a variety of hazards, dog legs, natural desert areas, etc. Most greens are well protected with sand bunkers so the player needs to be accurate with approach shots. Greens had a nice pace without being overly fast. Usually are treated to seeing some wildlife during the round. We saw rabbits, deer and a very healthy coyote.
Keep it in the middle for a good score.
Keep it in the middle for a good score or you could lose a good many golf balls.
Nice couse
This is an nice course. Not particular challenging but it's a great course for seniors or intermediate players.
