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.

It was a beautiful day in the foothills.

We enjoyed our round. It was a little slow due to an earlier tournament, but the course was in good shape and the greens were well kept. The bunkers varied from one to another, some sandy, some 1-2 inches of sand before hardback. It's a crapshoot. Key here - stay out of the bunker. There is NO drinking water on the course and NO beverage cart. The restaurant closes at 1 PM so if you want lunch or anything bring it yourself. We started at 11:30 and told them we had never play there before. It would have been nice to know that before hand. We had snacks and water in the car.

Overall - very nice course and good views.
We will play here again.

This course is a good warm up tract for a vacationer, if you don't mind snobs behind the pro shop counter.

The course has adequate facilities. Course condition was average, greens not as smooth as I prefer, and slow.

Fun course and an excellent value

This was the easier of the two public courses at Saddlebrook Ranch. Fun to play with wider fairways and no blind tee shots or approaches. Course is in excellent shape with lush fairways and manicured greens that were challenging but true. Staff was very friendly and customer oriented. Great value for the money, easily within the reach of all players.

We enjoy this course

We enjoy this course because it doesn not have a lot of forced carry situations. It is a typical golf course through a developement so you see mostly houses. It has a variety of tees for al level of golfer.
Never have seen a smile from any one in the pro shop or a "welcome'. Strangly t he whole clubhouse closes about 2 or 3 so after that you are on your own.

Great course for the average to good golfer.

MountainView has enough variation in the tee box placement to make it a long challenge for the big hitter or a manageable round for the average golfer. Course is currently in excellent condition and one normally can see a n assortment of wildlife while playing a round.

Played at 1PM for $30. Great value.

2nd time I've played this course. Now a resident and plan on playing again. Good shape and great views...saw deer, quail, etc. along the way. Spent triple this amount on courses that pale in comparison.

Worthwhile

Course conditions were quite good and greens were above average. Enjoyable round with fairly short desert carries off the tee. Desert washes and rough will definitely penalize the errant shot. We play this course 1-2 times a month in season and is good to keep in the rotation.
