Tubac Golf Resort - Rancho/Otero

Tubac was tinny

Fun place with great surroundings. The course conditions were not impressive. Cows walking in fairways and had obviously walked on greens as well. Sand traps rock hard. Layout is confusing crossing tenth hole to play 9 then back to 10th. Regular rate of $79 is too high. Evidenced by loads of empty tee times. Made trip w overnight to play it twice and did not play second day.

Ranch twilight

Greens were flawless! Beautiful day with sunset on 18th hole made it very memorable. Much better than a couple of years ago when last played this course. All amenities closed at 2:00 and nearby restaurant on site closed on Monday so low score for that. Great twilight bargain of however many holes you can get in .

Blown Away By This Course

My wife and I chose this course on Golf Now as it had a 4 star rating. Many were being kind rather than honest. It was terribly windy 35mph w gusts above 40 so we played 7 holes and left! First time ever I have not finished a course. Partly due to the wind but also very, very slow play (2 hours 30 minutes for 7 holes) and the course was like a muni course with no fairways or trees and the former sand traps were just inverted grass bunkers now. Very beat up fairways. The worst condition course I have been on in many years. Asked for a rain check or wind check or refund but only got an asterisk that they MAY give me a price break the next time I played it.

Better than most

Golfed at Marriott Desert Springs the next day and not only were conditions better at Tahquitz, but the views were much better and being from Florida we took a bunch of photos at Tahquitz and only two at Marriott.

Waterlefe tee boxes

I like the layout at Waterlefe and had a nice front nine 37 and putted well all day on very nice greens. The fairways were generally very nice as well and I had no excuses for missing so many greens on the back nine. The tee boxes were often very rough and several were just dirt with next to zero grass so they need some attention.
It was 4.5 hours as we often waited on group ahead and had group behind us waiting too. Still a fun day out on a nice challenging course with nice quick greens.
I recommend it to golfers wanting a challenge and enjoying nice quick but true greens.

Very challenging course

Lots of slanted fairways and tight lies with short grass in fairways made this course too tough for me. Bunkers and trouble at the ends of the slanted fairways puts a big premium on accurate drives.

Long grass

Lost a couple of balls in the edge of fairways due to very long grass. Nearly lost some in fairway too. Needed to be mowed.

Magnolia Landing is a solid

Magnolia is consistently a great course with attention to detail on maintenance. A HUGE amount of construction is going on all around the front nine but the back nine is serene and contains some of my favorite holes.
A great value and enjoy a beverage and a burget after in their bar.

Fast greens

Greens were very fast and in very good condition. They were exceptionally difficult and shots into them often ran off. The fairways were a dormant brownish color and almost bare with very, very tight lies. When it greens up it will become a very nice course.

Disappointing greens and fairways

Greens had large patches and were very very slow to try to get grass growing on them. Fairways were exceptionally tight lies with very little grass growing and many bald spots.
Nice layout but very unexpected conditions for January rates. Ok for $25 but not fir three times that. Many nicer courses around.

Definitely the top course in the area. Always professionally managed and always in top shape. Greens nearly recovered from plugging and still quick. Nice fairways and a great track.

New course getting better

The course layout is very nice and the condition of the grass on fairways and greens is excellent. Some sod along the edges is growing in nicely and less bumpy than a few weeks ago. The greens are still hard and fast but true.
A very nice course that will soon grow to become superb.

Re born course

This course is very nice and will become spectacular. Everything is redone and with some maturity it will evolve into a great course. Multiple tees to challenge long hitters and nice angles over water to offer risk reward options. Greens will become more receptive and were true already with some Nicky challenging subtleties. Play was slow and more spacing between tee times will also help this course be an outstanding experience.

Arrowhead nice track

Nice course layout with range situated between the two nines and the pro shop and dining also centered so a quick stop at the turn is easy. Course challenges with water carries and fairway traps from the tees at 6000 yards and longer. The shorter tees make it an easier course but accuracy is still required on some then short par 4 holes where you must strategize your tee shot with a higher wood or an iron off the tee or else your ball will get wet!
Less than resort caliber conditions but a great day out and a good price on the PGA pass extension into December. Give it a try.

Fun course in terrific condition. The greens are true and fairly quick compared to many Florida courses. Estimate 9-10 on stimp meter. Definitely a great course to play and good value for the money
