Always a great experience

Course was in great shape with perfect conditions. Only drawback was a fivesome ahead of us playing in a "tournament". Played like it was the final round of the US Open. Two holes open ahead of them.

Admin check in process was indignant and claimed the course doesn’t make any money when you book through golf now

Won’t play again based on admin staff, course condition, pace of play and value.

Staff at check-in was not friendly or accomodatimg

Staff at check-in made me feel like I owed them something because I booked through golf now. Pace of play was terrible as no ranger existed and the 4 some in front of us was actually 2 players and one player getting a lesson. . We waited on 6 of 9 holes on the front and every hole on the back. Rather play the haven than this place ever again!

Also no water on corse and no ball washers. Used to be a favorite but no more

Goff, Deer and Cow

Great course, famous for Tin Cup being filmed here. The Rancho 9 is especially lovely, along the Santa Cruz river, Deer in the woods on #7, Cattle grazing along the left side of the fairway on #9. Played with my brother-in-law, I'm visiting from PA, he and his wife from CA.

First class service, outstanding experience

A dry winter in the valley has left its mark on the course. But, the staff has made the best of it and the greens were in remarkable condition for this time of the season. The history of the ranch lives up to the popularity it has earned. Hard to believe that it’s 25 years since the movie. This experience is worthy of sharing and repeat.

Tubac Golf Course

The course was in excellent condition. One of the best courses I’ve played this winter when it comes to good grass! Most of the courses in Tucson area have sparse and thin grass. The fairways were excellent! Greens were in very good condition,

Super Unique Course

Really enjoyed my round here today. Conditions are 8/10. Layout is 9/10. Amenities are 9/10. Great overall experience. The course is very unique and diverse. Every hole presents a new challenge. The property is absolutely stunning. Will be back to play.

As good as it gets.

Tee boxes are level, fairways are lush and the greens are fast. Fringe was a little long and your might get a bounce to green if shot is short but probably not. Driver friendly course. We are mid to high handicap golfers but I only lost 1 ball. We played Otero/Rancho Blue/white combo tees.

Fun to play and a variety of holes

All good to say except they charge a little too much to play.
