MaranaDove MountainPar 108 · Slope 147 · From $250 · 38 minThe Nicklaus 27 at the Ritz-Carlton. You can only play it as a hotel guest or with a member, and it is among the priciest rounds in the area. Book it if you are staying at the resort.

You can only play it with a member.Green ValleyCanoa RanchPar 71 · Slope 143 · 44 minThe newest of the Green Valley public courses, a Schmidt-Curley desert layout with bent greens and mountain views.

Expect resort prices.TucsonVentana MountainPar 72 · Slope 141 · 30 minFazio desert golf with the photo-op par 3.

Cheaper than its Dove Mountain neighbours.TucsonSewailoPar 72 · Slope 138 · From $100 · 22 minThe best-conditioned public course on Tucson's south side and the one with real length.

The same resort-rotation rule applies.TucsonArizona NationalPar 71 · Slope 137 · 35 minStrong RTJ Jr. desert course in the northeast foothills, open to the public.

Check for overseed closures before booking a late-October trip.TucsonFred EnkePar 72 · Slope 135 · 23 minDesert target golf at a muni price on the east side. The most interesting of the city courses.Green ValleySan IgnacioPar 72 · Slope 135 · From $27 · 43 minAn Arthur Hills desert course on the west side of Green Valley, open to the public with an online tee sheet.

Snowbirds renting in Rancho Vistoso can treat it as a home course.TucsonCrooked TreePar 72 · Slope 132 · From $28 · 22 minA solid public 18 in the northwest at mid-range prices. One of the few nearby courses taking times through overseed in late October 2026.TucsonTucson National SonoranPar 70 · Slope 130 · 23 minShorter par-70 desert course at Tucson National. Easier on the card than Catalina, but the bunkering keeps it honest. Pair it with Catalina on a stay-and-play.MaranaQuarry PinesPar 71 · Slope 130 · From $23 · 19 minCheap, short public course in Marana. Pace can drag. Fine for a budget round, not a destination.SaddleBrookeSaddleBrookePar 72 · Slope 130 · 47 minThe original SaddleBrooke community golf. It is mainly for residents and renters on monthly memberships. Visitors should call first.Green ValleyTorres BlancasPar 72 · Slope 130 · From $18 · 40 minA low-cost public Trevino layout in the middle of Green Valley, with lakes and big greens.

Expect resort scenery at municipal prices.TucsonRandolph NorthPar 72 · Slope 127 · From $40 · 10 minTucson's historic midtown muni: flat, long and cheap. Good value for snowbirds, but not a destination round.TucsonForty NinerPar 72 · Slope 127 · From $21 · 35 minAn older, unpretentious Bell layout on the far east side that takes public play. It is cheap in the off-season. It is a sensible pick for east-side snowbirds who want a regular game rather than a showpiece.TucsonDell UrichPar 70 · Slope 124 · From $50 · 10 minThe easier of the two Randolph courses. Fine for a quick, cheap round in midtown.TucsonEl RioPar 70 · Slope 124 · From $28 · 7 minA traditional city course with old trees, close to downtown. Cheap and quick to get to. Not a resort-level round.Green ValleyHavenPar 72 · Slope 124 · From $22 · 36 minGreen Valley's oldest course, flat and walkable with big greens and modest slope.
