Enjoyable round

Like everyone said before me- it's not easy to find where you drop off your clubs, or where the Pro Shop is but once that's solved the course is great. Very fair off the tees with nice landing areas. The greens are big and in great shape. The course meanders around a residential area with beautiful views of the Catalina mountains and surrounding area. Very beautiful vistas from the tee boxes. I would recommend playing here.

MUST PLAY COURSE

Put this one on your bucket list! From the moment you arrive, the staff makes this a fantastic experience! The equipment is top notch, the practice facility is great, and the golf course is fantastic. From tee box to green, it is perfection. While challenging, it is very playable. The beauty on every hole is breathtaking. You owe it to yourself to play this course.

my favorite course in Tucson

Every time we come to Tucson we try and play both these courses. I don't prefer one over the other as I love them both.These courses are excellent for the average golfer. There is not too much carry or trouble to get in to.

Gorgeous setting

Beautiful course. Paired up with another single and a twosome. Unfortunately the twosome refused to play tees appropriate to their skill level which slowed our round considerably and resulted in a visit from an extremely rude marshall. Disappointed that we only saw the cart girl one time during the round - expected better service from a high end course. Course was in great shape and presented the opportunity to play every club in my bag.

A visual treat

Ventana Canyon (Canyon Course) was fabulous from the minute we arrived. The only thing difficult was finding the pro shop. We had 2 threesomes of golfers and from the minute I arrived at the pro shop, they called for assistance to have our bags taken to the cart area. The staff member there Gave us a wonderful orientation to the course, and where things are located, things to watch for and the flow of the course and location of the pins. The course itself showcases Tucson's mountains, terrain and valley views. What a delightful day, and we are already planning to go back in the summer when the rates are less expensive. We had family visiting from the Midwest and they had never been to such a wonderful golf course!!! Impressive!

Stacking them deep

It took 90 minutes to play the first 3 holes because of the amount if golfers scheduled on the 8am shotgun start.
The pace quicked and it turned out to be a very relaxing round.

Nice facility, bad experience.

I brought two business associates and came as a threesome but was paired with a club member that treated us with extreme rudeness to the extent that it ruined our experience. Their golf etiquette was a big zero and management could see nothing wrong with this. Complained to the director of golf who did nothing to correct the situation.
I will never go back there again.

wonderful experience

Well maintained facility....very knowledgeable staff...visually magnificent. ..exceptional conditions. ...very fair test from the tips....great course for all levels as different tees allow lesser players to avoid significant carry overs yet still experience the design layout and not feel cheated in the process. Greens are very undulating allowing for multiple precarious pin placements. Fairways are generous except for short and driveable par 4s.

Total package for any golfer

Outstanding facility for the golfer. Practice range is very good, friendly starter, very decent pace of play.
Course is just beautiful. Tee shots are challenging but fair, approach shots are more challenging, bunkers are perfectly kept, greens must be read according to grain. Greens are perfectly kept. I played from the Gold tees at 6400 Yards, would like to have played the 6800 yard tees but my pairing were not interested. Nevertheless the Canyon course will show you desert golf at a high level.

Strange Layout

Of the two Ventana Canyon courses I much prefer the Mountain Course. The Canyon has plenty of interesting holes including two par 4s even I was able to reach off the tee. I found the travel from green to tee quite distracting. The course conditions were spectacular. The fairways were lush, the greens firm, but fair and putted true. For the money, I would rather play the Mountain Course.

Ventana Canyon Mountain Course

Best course in Tucson. Great condition, excellent greens. Sand traps could use a little work, but who's complaining. Try the hot dogs at the turn. Straight off the grill. Good value.
