Fun course to play occasionally

Staff was great, course condition was relatively good. Pin placements were a bit severe for a resort course. Pace of play reasonable but had to wait some on every hole.

Tubac has always been a fairly decent course. Really like the staff, they've always been nice to me. Course conditions have struggled as of lately but I understand that covid has made it hard. I really reccomend playing from the tips, it makes the course super fun and challenging. Personally, my favorite course is Rancho. I reccomend this course.

Very good after overseading

Excellent condition considering the course had just been overseeded. The greens were mowed and carts were allowed on the fairways and had a great time. I recommend play at Tubac AZ.

RESORT GOLF COURSE

We played the Otero/Ranch courses. Both nines were showing a little of the stress from the overly hot and dry conditions of the summer months. The courses offer plenty of shot-making decisions for any level of golfer. Fairways & greens were in reasonably good condition, except golfers could do a better job of repairing fairway divots and ball marks on greens.

Always Relaxing

I always enjoy the relaxing atmosphere at this course. Played rancho which is Always a plus. No complaints about conditioning. The only disappointing part of our experience was that some of the staff did not wear masks or were them incorrectly with their noses exposed. Also, no distancing at The bar so we didn't have a post round drink. I will play the course again but will probably avoid the bar/restaurant for safety reasons
