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.

Just another great day for golf!

Love this course! The layout has something for everyone. Some very challenging holes but also mostly wide fairways. Lots of elevation changes make for some beautiful vistas. Highly recommend!

The course was in good condition - played through rain and cold, windy weather on first nine, until the heavens broke through, and finished the last nine in pristine conditions. Was a fine day of golf.

Great day for golf!

Of course any day is a great day for golf and yesterday was no different. Was a single in a foursome with two friends and my cart mate who was a retired FDNY with 39 years of service...great guy. The other two were good guys too. Anyways, one reason I like to play as a single is meeting new people, which made yesterday...a great day OF golf.

Nice course

Layout of the course is pretty long but fun. The fairways are nice and wide and the ball rolls out pretty far. Greens are really fast so be careful of that.

Great course, nice people, no food!!!

The course was in excellent condition, the greens were a little slow. It may have to do with the fact that I played in the mid to late afternoon. I’ve always had fun playing with other people out there, most of them are older but so am I. The only problem I had was “Ed’s dogs closed at 2 o’clock”! I showed up at 1 o’clock for a 1:37 tee time and would’ve gotten food had I known they were closing so early. Because the round took about 4 1/2 hours to play I didn’t eat till close to 7 PM. Was not a happy camper but had a good day of golf.

Course conditions

The course layout is so nice, but the fairways should have better grass ,should be over seeded, chipping around the greens would have better lies if you had some grass. Bunkers are like concrete. I’m not a member but if I was I would be disappointed.

Poorly manicured

This course use to be one of my favorite courses to play. But in the last few years has gone down hill to me. The fairways , ruff and around the greens are scalped. Seems like you are always hitting off of hard pan and very tight lie"s. Greens are fast, which is not a bad thing, but are hard and not very receptive. A lot of times, you don"t even leave a divot. It seems every time I've gone to play or just use their driving range for practice, they have you hitting off of mats. My opinion is that the management of the course and course conditions are being handle very poorly.
