Saddlebrook Ranch Golf Club

Improvements are underway and it appears things are trending in the right direction. Will be interested to see how things look after said changes have been completed, but I'm optimistic Saddlebrook Ranch Golf Club is headed in the right direction.

With very well maintained surfaces (tee boxes, fairways and greens), good views, nicely contoured fairways, some reasonably challenging bunkers and other hazards, Saddlebrook Ranch provides a very good experience. Throw in some tasty hot dogs at Ed's Dogs between the 9th and 10th holes; and a very friendly staff and you've got a winner. My brother and I agree that it's a course we will play again. Highly recommended.

For a neighborhood hangout you can't do better. Great happy hour prices. Decent enough food. The charcuterie plate is my new favorite.

We recently discovered this golf course because they are close to home and fairly nice. We've played here 6-8 times. Today, a worker stopped by as we pulled up to chip and told me my skirt was too short and the dress code states that women's skirts are to be mid-thigh or longer. And that I could go ahead and golf today but in the future...And he said, "I don't make the rules." WTH? I have worn these same types of skirts all other times playing and nobody has ever said anything. And I go inside to check in with my husband ever time. Too bad...we won't be coming back.

I want to make others aware at how poor the staff is here, and how they enjoy trying to tell the younger crowds what they should do, but not tell the older crowds the same. My parents live here in Saddlebrook Ranch, so when I visit, I like to go hit a few balls at their driving range and/or play a round of golf. I have been specifically seeker out and talked to on four different occasions about my dress code. Once for not wearing a collared shirt, once for not wearing a collared shirt underneath my collared sweater, once for wearing two short of shorts, and another time when my nephews came out and we were wearing jeans. I have never seen them talk to the numerous amounts of old folks who are also not wearing collared shirts underneath their jackets, nor the numerous amounts of old folks wearing straight up sweat pants, as if they just woke up. This is getting pretty ridiculous. I have to keep reminding myself that this is common culture in retirement neighborhoods...old folk trying to tell young folk what to do when they did nothing wrong...but I also have to remind myself that this is a public course! Also, nowhere in their website does it state any specific golf attire. All it states is to wear "appropriate golf attire". The one time I didn't wear a collared shirt, I was unaware that it was needed, as I've been to many public courses that have never required a collared shirt. When I was asked to wear one next time, I figured since I saw older folk wearing a t-shirt underneath their collared jacket, that I could do the same, but apparently I got reprimanded for that too. I'm not upset at the golf attire required at this course, but more so upset at the fact that those working here (who seem to be residents of Saddlebrook Ranch) continue to single me out for things other older golfers are doing. We get it, you don't like young people, or maybe you do, but your actions show differently...I'm giving this course a 1-star for the fact that they don't treat all golfers the same, and seem to single out younger folk to try to nitpick things that don't matter. I wouldn't have an issue if they specified on their website the actual attire required, but they don't, so it's just straight up singling younger people out, especially when older golfers come in much worse attire than I ever have.

Nice and will be nicer once all facilities are built. Visited to get some golf in with my father-in-law. Windy day, but was cool. Nice course. They have some more facilities and building planned from what I'm told. Will be even better, then. And I hear that this is a sister course to the other Robson courses in Tucson.

Full price. Garbage fairways. OB for no reason. Greens were nice just ignore the rest of the course. If you enjoy El Rio you will still hate this place.

Bumpy dry dyed greens, fairways in horrific shape, staff are rude and all that during high season . Best to skip it no matter what the deal is. If I was a home owner out there I'd be pissed to have to look at that goat trail out my living room windows....

Decent golf course for the money. Not appointed very well - the tartan is good but lack of traps, obstacles & water on the course. The Views are very nice. Hope the next course has better physical features for the golfing experience.

I had a great time and enjoyed several meals here. Our food was prepared right and served with a smile.
