JW Marriott Tucson Starr Pass Resort & Spa

By far my favorite course in Tucson. Probably one of my favorite courses all time. Just perfect conditions and beautiful scenery. Challenging design so get ready for some brutal shots but they are not stupid shots. Best greens in Tucson too.

Very challenging for golfers of all skill levels.

Absolutely spectacular vistas.

This may be the best golf experience in southern Arizona.

After Corporate Takeover this course is in need of much attention. As an example,the fringe on the greens are not being taken care of on many of the holes. It was so bad we played 9 holes instead if 18 and left. The staff has also changed for the worse.

Pace of play and condition of course was great. Only down side was the starter was rude, but can’t let other peoples attitudes ruin your day.

It was hot and humid, typical for the date.

Starter friendly, helpful, explained we could play Coyote 9 (after Rattler 9) if we wanted. Since Coyote may be best of the three, we did, no waiting at all during entire round.

Conditions: excellent (too many unfixed ball marks but appeared recent, from that days play?).

Greens mid-speed, smooth, held nicely.

Some of the best fairways and bunkers in Tucson Clubhouse bar decent, resort prices.

Tough to go wrong, enjoyable golf.

Amazing course! First time playing, will definitely be back. A great target course, pay attention to the barber poles. Greens were phenomenal, rolled really pure. Couple of dried out spots, but that’s expected this time of the year. Will enjoy the next round even more with a little bit of course knowledge!

Starter was an unfriendly transplant from your local muni course, must be the father in law of one of the staff.

Design is beautiful and fun, a second and third round would make it easier and even more fun, there is a learning curve to the layout.

some super challenging, interesting and thoughtful par 4’s, don’t plan on hitting driver off every tee.

many of the tee boxes were in poor shape, not near flat with some serious undulation. we had to work sometimes to find a flat spot to hit from.

Overall a great course, green looked nice, but rolled pretty slow the day we played, made it a bit tougher. some maintenance needed around a few of the more irregular ( and very cool) green complexes

Always great course conditions. Love playing this course.

This course was in top condition, even better than most AZ courses in winter! Tricky layout for someone that has never played here before, course management is a must.

What a pleasure to play a Tucson course in late July with perfectly smooth and receptive greens!! If you miss a putt that’s on you— Starr Pass is a challenging course but worth the effort.

Cheers and thumbs up to the entire staff—

The course is in great shape as always. At the summer rates this is a steal. Don't miss it.
