Nice Shape for Sep

The course is in really good shape. There’s some maintenance on the course, but it’s expected.

Like most courses in Southern AZ, the bunkers are not in very good shape. They were either hard or muddy.

Greens were good, as were the fairways.

The tee boxes are flat, so both right and left handers are equal off the tee box.

Remember there’s no beverage cart so stock up before you head to #1.

First time playing

I booked this place then I un booked it due to some of the reviews and comments. Then I booked it again because I had been wanting to play this course for over a year. Don’t let the reviews get to you. It is beautiful and almost perfect. Only problem I had with the place was no cart girl. Other than that?? It was one of the best places I’ve played in Tucson.

Loved the experience…

Early morning summer round. Higher, and cooler than Tucson. Course still transitioning from winter grass so fairways very close cut, a bit dormant (lots of roll) but playable. Course’s numerous bunkers in great shape. Greens visually splotchy but smooth, held ok, at mid-speed.

The layout is eye catching, amenities top notch (restrooms w/water and ice every four holes.

Play it if you can, sometimes offered at a low rate so even if a bit of a drive, give it a go.

Fun track

Very laid back and very enjoyable if you want a mellow round of golf. Not many people out there for a Saturday afternoon. I felt it was slightly over priced for the course conditions. For $100 I’d expect complimentary range balls. Felt more like a $60 course. It was extremely dry and could use a bit of water. Greens were super fast and rolled true. Very fun course and lots of fairway bunkers to navigate. Staff and all the locals were very nice. Had dinner at the clubhouse afterwards. Food was phenomenal and well priced. Bit of a drive from Tucson. I’d give it another try during the winter when it’s not so dry.

Great challenging course

Good to see the Preserve overseeding with winter rye grass again. Makes a big difference. This course is probably my favorite public course in the Tucson area. It had a great variety of hole designs and has several particularly challenging holes. The views are fabulous.

Great Experience.

We played on a Sunny Sunday in January. The staff was helpful and friendly. The course was in marvelous condition. Too many blind shots and hidden hazards for our liking. No satellite images and no warnings of the hazards. Ruined a great round for us...

Charged Double

When I made the reservation on line I was charged for one of the three players and again at the course. The golf course personnel are not trained properly or Golf Now is not trustworthy. There is no number to call and discuss this issue. Beware of Golf Now!

great course

Dessert looms on most holes with an errant shot. Course in great shape. Only negative is that the price is on the high end when compared to other courses in the area.

The Preserve at Saddlebrooke

Great layout. The course was challenging and in good condition overall with the exception of the bunkers, which were terrible. The condition of the bunkers kept me from giving this a higher rating.
