This is one of the few places to play

The surrounding area of homes are very nice. The clubhouse is kind of primitive. Very hilly course and the cart paths need a lot of attention. But the staff was nice.

Not for the faint of heart

This course is very unusual. The front nine is so different than the back nine. Which is great ! Staff are very friendly people. Great food and drinks. No range to hit any balls is a bummer. Bring extra balls with you , you’ll likely need them ! Enjoy.

Stunning Views

This is one of the most interesting courses I've ever played. Several times I had to stop to take pictures. The fairways are generally tight, the greens are set up with a beautiful background and several of the holes have a stunning view. The greens, while plush seemed slow. A particular par 3 is not for the faint of heart. Play here and you'll recognize the hole I refer to. These things set the course up to take a little longer to play. Enjoy !

Be careful of the spectacular views

Starr Pass is a fairly tough course since there is usually desert scape between you and your intended landing area. The course is gorgeous and the views are dramatic. The fairway is plush. Greens were not super fast, actually a little slower than what I expected, but great to put on. Starr Pass is well worth the money ! I'm a 14 handicap and we played the silver tees today.

A Hidden Gem

We played 9 on this course today. The course is nestled in a nice community. There was some water on about half the holes. Started on time. Cart path only today as the course was really wet. Fairways were nice, the greens are pretty slow. #7 is one of the most spectacular holes you’ll find. It’s a par 3. I would highly recommend this course.

Thank you so much for sharing your review and experience at Ocean Pines Golf Club! We're thrilled that you enjoyed our Robert Trent Jones-designed course. Hole #7, which we consider our signature hole, is a perfect example of his style. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope you'll come back and play a round - whether it's 9 holes or 18 - the next time you're in the area!

A wide open desert course

Staff is great. On a military base so plan for additional time to clear admission to the base. Took me about 20 minutes. Tee boxes are nice. Fairways ok, lateral ground is mostly rocks and dried bushes. Greens actually seemed slow.

A beautiful desert course

The staff at The Preserve were very friendly and the clubhouse is beautiful. The holes offered a nice challenge to each. The fairways are offer great views and moderate to generous width. There was water, canyons, hawks and lots of natural interest as you play. greens were actually a little slow but nice. I would certainly recommend this course. The only drawback is that the location is a bit remote but worth the trip. I would definitely play here again. I did not use any amenities.

This course has stunning views

The mountain course is a beautiful course. We played to gold tees. The fairways and tees are lush, the greens are quick and the view from most anywhere is just gorgeous this course is well worth the money.

A great afternoon of golf

This course is a very nice layout. Most of the fairways are pretty tight so you have to hit the ball straight. The greens are quick and very nice. Cart paths are kind of rough and the only drawback to this otherwise Great course. Would definitely play here again and recommend you do too

A very picturesque desert course

The clubhouse and dining area are very welcoming. The staff at the front desk are all very nice. The course is not easy but if you hit the ball relatively straight it makes the layout much easier. I would highly recommend playing Vistoso.

I Always enjoy playing this course

The staff is always very courteous. After a short frost delay we got started. The course has always been in very nice shape. Aim for the 150 markers and you can't go wrong. Fairways are very green and usually generous.Pace of play was excellent, even with the delay. The practice area is well cared for. Actually for $10 I was told by the staff you can come and practice all day! One of my favorite courses to play in Tucson.

Lots of recent storm damage.

Upon arrival restrooms were closed. Sent us out in a timely manner. Lots of standing water and sand from bunkers went missing during a recent storm. However, they were working very hard to get things back in shape. I would recommend.

Very scenic adventure

This course is a nice mix of shot making and wide open areas. Fairways and tees are lush. Greens are well kept with bunkers aplenty. Staff was super courteous. They also have a wonderful practice range. I would highly recommend this course.
