Located in the North Tucson area, SaddleBrook Ranch Golf Club borders the Santa Catalina Mountains. The course meanders through the high Sonoran desert, incorporating natural washes into the design and providing stunning mountain views from almost every hole. Abundant desert flora and fauna further enhance the rugged, gently rolling terrain. The golf course offers a mix of challenging holes and player-friendly features, resulting in a layout with several interesting risk-reward opportunities that will appeal to low and high handicappers equally. The player-friendly fairways are generous, allowing beginners to feel comfortable with ample room off the tees and rewarding thoughtful play. There are also carefully placed mounds, hollows, and bunkers along the large, receptive greens that provide opportunities to recover an errant shot. The golf course is made even more versatile with five different sets of tees.

Saddlebrook

Greens are new and beautiful but won’t hold a ball no matter how well hit. Will improve with age.

Practice green is much faster than greens on the course.

Great course - pace of play needs work

The course was pristine- all of our group commented on this. We were placed within league play - but the group in front of use demonstrated poor etiquette- not taking multiple clubs to ball, so walking back and forth to cart. We could also tell they were not playing ready golf given the course was busy - this seems obvious. Watching them putt back and forth around the hole was frustrating. The course setting is relaxing , so I’m willing to give it another chance.

A little slow pace

Tee boxes and greens are nice! Fairways are mostly painted hard pan and the rough was cut short in preparation for the spring growing season. Pace of play was slow, it took over four hours to complete the round. We started out as a foursome and two of the players bailed out after nine holes because of time constraints. My playing partner was a great guy and we enjoyed the back nine while waiting for the groups ahead of us.

First time playing here and really enjoyed it, slightly dry but not bad at all and the greens rolled perfectly. I definitely want to plan another round here!

Not very friendly people in the clubhouse.

Been there a few times the past couple years and always the same treatment.

Course is in bad shape

I’m giving up on going there

Greens

Greens are new and have yet to be established. The greens did not hold the ball at all even with a wedge. Greens have always been hard but thought with new greens would be better. Am told after the greens mature and get punched and sanded, they will get better.

nice course

Played the course multiple times. Nice layout. Greens new this past year so still quite firm, while surrounds are soft due to the watering required. Thus, distances are quite challenging right now; although the greens are going to be great with a little more maturity. Roll well now, just firm.

Great value!

Love playing at Saddlebrook Ranch. Challenging, yet fair. Course is always in really good condition. Staff could be a little friendlier. Love the Ranch House after a round.
