Challenging but Friendly
A lot of the fairways slope frome one side to the other. A drive down the middle does not mean it will be there when you arive. Greens are similar. Although the course is challenging, it does not provide too many "pro only" shots. The scenery is great and my wife agreed that it is lady friendly. Good value and we would return.
Fun course, staff was not overly welcoming but they were able to accommodate.
It was a fun course although it is a retirement community course and the members were not very nice. I was paired with a 3some and 2 of our members were in their 70's and took some time to tee off and the members playing behind us were rude and pushy.
Fun & Challenging to Play
The Preserve is a fun and challenging layout. Some local knowledge is a real benefit, as placement is more important than length on some holes.
Course was in very good condition, and the staff was quite friendly.
Only complaint is that pace of play was a little slow.
Overall, The Preserve provides one of the best values for golf in the Tucson area.
Tough for first time playing.
Course knowledge is essential on this course. Don't recommend without layout help. Fun to play once you know the course.
One of our favorite courses we played in Tucson, in great shape!
We played over 7 of the top courses in 7 days in Tucson area. The Preserve was one of our favorites. The course is tough, but it plays "fair". We will definitely go back again to the Preserve. We really liked how immaculate the fairways and greens were.
Preserve: An incredibly scenic course with excellent conditions.
Saddlebrooke Preserve is a little bit of a drive from Tucson but definately worth the effort. The views of the Catalina Mountains are spectacular and the variety of holes makes this a challenging course. The course conditions are excellent. Be careful to watch for rattlesnakes if your ball goes off the somewaht narror fairways. There s no service cart and if you want refreshments, you can purchase them from the ranger. The only negative is that the cost of range balls is high.
nice views, many elevation changes, nice practice area
too often down hill tee shots, adequate design for terrain
greens sloped nicely, but very uneven and bumpy
views are very nice
cart paths difficult to navigate
The course has a variety of interesting and challenging holes.
The course is well kept, has wonderful vistas and an interesting variety of holes.
Liked it all.
Requires gps to find clubhouse.
Beautiful scenery from every hole.
Get a map of course or gps to avoid hidden arroyos & distance to.
At 4 pm the clubhouse & bar were empty.
too wet
The course at 6400 yds plays longer because the course has too much water on it. I am told the effluent is being dumped on the course to get rid of it. A better solution might be to dump the water somewhere else, like the driving range or irrigate something other than fairways and especially aprons to greens.
food and beverage service was lacking for in season golf.
we enjoyed this challenging course. close to Saddlebrooke community.
grass was too short.
grass was too short so that when you are in trouble on the outside of fairway, you are going to have your ball on the dirt. Not grass.
Spectacular Views
Course in excellent conditioning, one of the three most beautiful courses in Tucson area!11
Gorgeous and challenging
Course was in tip-top shape. We played in four hours even though the course is challenging.
Awesome setting and course design
I played The Preserve for the first time yesterday after hearing from a fellow golfer that it was a "must play" course. The setting looking up at the Catalina Mountains on almost every hole took by breath away. The course was very well maintained and every hole unique/challenging but very playable. I didn't buy a yardage book but I plan to the next time I play the course.
I going to make The Preserve my home course and play it at least once a week in the future.
The best non-resort course in Tucson area.
The couse was in pristine shape with exception of divot marks on the greens, but that's on the golfers not the golf course. Bunkers were in great shape as well [ most are basically hardpans these days ]. This is possibly the best value for your money in southern Arizona, highly reccommend playing their.
Tremendous views of the Catalinas
Very interesting course to play. Elevated tees, blind holes, lots of variety. Good condition.
Rangers control pace of play
Okay but pace of play required is too fast for the difficlty of the course
The preserve
The course is in good condition after the over-seeding. Greens run true and are fairluy fast. Probably about 8 nor 9 on the Stimp Meter. It is a cjhallenging lay-out and very picturesque with some very attractive holes.
Best conditions since openning!
I have been playing The Preserve for over 7 years and it is in the absolute best condition it has ever been in! Other than having to repair more ball marks on the green than just mine, they are rolling very true and smooth. Fairways are in very good condition with grass under every ball, that is the ones you find the fairway with! Pace was a little slower than what I prefer but the course can be sneaky difficult if you don't hit the ball pretty straight.
