Almost great.

This is a very good course, that could be better.
I played the Conquistador course, primarily because it has bent grass greens. Being from the Midwest we play bent all the time. In this instance I was very disappointed. They were possibly the slowest greens I have ever played on. NONE of our foursome could get the ball to the hole. I also thought the grass on the teeboxes was too long. Maybe these conditions are brought about by 'desert ' temperatures, but this was the 14th course I have played in the Tucson area in 3 weeks, and these conditions were 'overly cautious ', in my opinion.

NOW, that all being said, I would definitely come back here. The views are magnificent, the staff super. There are homes on every hole, but, it's a resort course!

I'm trying to squeeze in the Canada course ( different grens ) before I leave.

This is meant to be constructive criticism. Hopefully the right people read this and may be able to do some tweaks.

Beautiful tricky course

The course was in great condition and the carts were a pleasure to drive: responsive, quiet and nicely equipped. It’s not my husband‘s favorite course because the fairways are kind of narrow, So it’s easy to lose some balls. He lost a couple and I lost one brand new one, but I also found at least three ha ha!
As for level of play I would consider myself an advanced beginner: I can get to the green in two or three strokes, but then it usually takes me at least that many to get her done!

Great Day

Sun shone, birds sang and palm trees were blowing in the wind. Wish I wouldn’t have 3 putted so many times but nothing could ruin the beautiful day on a beautiful course with good people.

Great pre-Easter round

Course is in great shape, greens are rolling. Both courses are the best value for the quality in Tucson! Pace of play was great, played the round in 4 hours 10 minutes, really good for middle of the day on a Saturday.

Satisfying course

A really enjoyable course.
Only downside was that I played with a friend - intended two ball.
Unfortunately had no choice in being assigned to two strangers to play with us to create 4-ball.
Couldn’t really see why we couldn’t play two ball because the course was not overly busy.
Other than that, the course was in good condition….greens were really well kept.

Greens in great condition!

Had a nice round at Conquistador. Course is in pretty good winter condition. Greens were great to putt on. Smooth & fast! Lots of undulations on fairways & greens. Plenty of challenge!
