Resorts at Ventana Canyon: Loews and The Lodge

Course is in great condition considering it is under severe heat stress.

My only issue with the Canyon course is that it is spread out over long travel times between tee boxes.

Greens were in summer maintenance - sandy but fair.

Fairways were excellent.

Overall conditions, despite the heat, very good.

Beautiful facility and views. Well worth visiting.

Great rate and super friendly staff. Course was in great shape and very challenging.

tees, fairways and greens are all "A"; layout fun fair and challenging

Greens and Fairways have been cut way low and aerated. You would be much better off to wait several weeks for conditions to improve. 3 and 4 putts were very common in our foursome. Check-in was confusing. They closed the normal pro shop for the summer and you are required to check-in at the "members" pro shop at the Lodge. Staff was NOT welcoming at this member pro shop (guess because we are not "members"). We don't need to pay as much as we did for this kind of treatment.

Just played the Mountain Course. REALLY looked forward to playing it, knowing some of the holes are well-known. Played the Canyon course several times, and liked it. But I was hoping the Mountain course was way above it. The fairways were dry and were cut in long strips(aerating?)and the greens were very dry and fast.. Loved the 13th hole and parred it, and birdied the 14th. Will play again.. Oh yeah.. the POOL area of the resort was BLASTING music, which was very distracting to me.. I like golf to be "quiet" for the most part..

Well-maintained course with actual rough ... large, inviting but FIRM greens make it difficult to stop approach shots for an amateur player...amenities are TOP-NOTCH ... a lot of distance between holes makes it difficult to get into any rhythm of play

Course was in excellent shape. This was our first time playing here and the staff from Pro shop check in, cart pick up, starter, snack shop, cart return were polite, friendly and made us feel as though we were members at a private club. Would highly recommend to anyone who has not played here before. Will definitely put in our rotation when we visit Tucson again .

Had great hope for this course, but when we got there our expectations went in the tank. The unfriendliness of the staff was our first clue--we did not get a smile from any staff member we had contact with. The greens were sanded which was a surprise to us since no one ever mentioned it. When done, we had to climb back to the car from where we turned in the golf carts--one would think they would have a shuttle system. All in all, we would NOT go back to this course. There are many other courses we played that are a better value than Ventana Canyon.

wow what a track - great 39 dollar price--will be back

Great place to play, good value for the money and a great challenge for all levels. I would definitely play here again next time I am in town.

Course was in excellent shape Weather and view were great. We moved forward to the silver tees where the slope still was 129 and we had a blast.

The mountian course is one of my favorites in the Tucson area, always in great shape, fantastic views, greens are fast and in great shape and the staff is gelpful and friendly.

We always play the Mountain Course when in Tucson, the combination of course layout and amazing views from almost every hole make it fun no matter how you play. Make sure you choose the right club on number 3!

Played the Canyon Course and great conditions. 13 on the stimpmeter we were told in the Pro Shop and that was about right. Only complaint is that there is lots of travel between holes which make for a long round of golf. Outside of that all good things can be said about this course.

This was, without a doubt, the best course I have played in Tucson. Interestingly, even the starter couldn't believe the price we got from Golf Now.

Still a beautiful golf course in great condition with lightning fast greens. Was a beautiful day which highlighted spectacular views.

Played the Canyon course with three strangers on a Sunday morning. The course is in a spectacular setting and it was in wonderful condition, as good as any I have played in Tucson, and it wasn’t crowded. We saw no one in front of us and finished in just over four hours. It would have been faster with faster company. As many have pointed out, the greens are huge, smoking fast, and they don’t hold. Unlike some other high end courses in Tucson, the Canyon is really not a target golf course and there are few forced carries. If you choose your tees to match your game you’ll have a good round, except perhaps for the putting.

Loved this course except firmness of greens. Could not get ball to stop. Great layout and views
