Preserve Golf Course

fun layout, majestic views. green speed is always ridiculously slow. fast greens and fixing the irrigation woes would make this a must play

This is our third annual Early Spring North Tucson trip and our third visit at The Preserve. Among the 4 courses we played in the North Tucson/Saddlebrook area, we all agreed that The Preserve was the best. The staff was friendly but I was surprised to see while there was a line waiting to check in, only 1 out of the 3 staff in the Pro shop would do the check in while the other two just stood there. Luckily that was the only slight disappointment of the day. The restaurant has a nice view of the Catalina Hills and is reasonably priced for their food and ambience. After lunch, we stepped on the course and we were taken aback by the beautiful scenery and the condition of the course. We really like the layout of the course for each hole has its own unique feature. Some are challenging which requires good placement in order to take advantage of the dog legs and/or carrying over the hazards. If the hole is long and straight, they made the fairways narrow or channel the ball towards the wash/hazard if you put the ball on the wrong side of the fairways. Two par-3 holes have big elevation drop with one over a canyon. The greens are also in great shape with some undulations but fairly true roll. At the end of the day, our two threesomes all said, "Fun, fun, fun!"

Put this course on your to play list, fantastic layout and in great winter shape, Troon Golf does a terrific job of maintaining a golf course and making it more playable even though the course is a challenging

course for every level of golfer.

The front nine was as slow as a snail due to a male foursome in front of us who spent at least 10 minutes on every green. They wouldn't even let a single play through. He had to finally go around them 6th or 7th hole. The ranger talked to them but only once we were on the ninth hole. Two of the four men quit after nine and two continued on but our pace picked up and we were able to get around the back 9 with no waiting/delays.

Always a great day at the Preserve. Greens could have been a bit faster, but overall the course was in very good condition.

Very challenging course. Scenery fantastic. The course was great . Highly recommend playing this one. Played on a Monday and restaurant was closed along with the pro shop when we finished around 4:00pm which was a little disappointing. Plan to play again.

If you are a first time player here beware of hidden hazards which are not visible from the tee or even on your second shot on some holes. The back of score card does not show a layout of each hole.

THIS COURSE IS CHALLENGING. PEOPLE ARE GREAT. COURSE OFFERS GREAT VIEWS

This is a 17 hole course. There is so much duck du on 18 you don't dare walk or drive on fairway. I had to clean my cart tires when I got home or I would have stunk up the garage. Also had to clean shoes.

Buy a course book & bring a camera. Worth every penny, play this difficult layout. A true gem. Had a great time, very challenging elevation changes. Course in pristine condition. A true must play at any price. Mike from NY 16 handicap

The views from almost every hole is amazing. the fairways are great,but the greens need to be mowed they are too long. Realllllllllll slowwwwwwww puttsssssssss!!!!!!

This is a great course. The price reflects the fact that you are not pampered.. Get your own cart and no prepared food available on the course or at the end of 9 holes. Great scenery and well managed considering how few staff are actually around. Tee time starts are always on time and the staff are friendly. Pro shop closes before 4 PM so if you want to buy something do it before you play

Our foursome enjoyed the game, course and the scenery.

Great scenery, great layout.

Great course --starter. Lady was. Great and. Noticed she also Marshalled!
Great track--going to play it again even if it is an hour drive from San Tan Valley!

What an awesome golf course. Friendly staff, nice layout, great value. This is the best course I played in Arizona. I will be back, and I will be bringing my friends.

Fun course with fantastic mountain views. Course was packed. If the greens were faster, I wouldn't have minded the five hour round. Was paired up with a super couple from Seattle. Fun afternoon with temps in the low 70s.

Golf course was great but take your snacks and drinks .No cart service and the restaurant and bar are closed on Mondays..

You will be distracted by the great views!
The twosome we played with had left a club at the driving range, he called the Pro Shop, and they sent it out with the beverage /snack cart.
Great customer service.
Yes we will play there again as soon as we find another deal on GolfNow.
