I've played here twice in the last week and on both occasions really enjoyed my time out there…read more The course's greens were recently punched (*it's a summer time thing that has to be done in the desert) and ironically, after I figured out that the ball was not going to move very much because it was jumping straight ahead the whole way to the hole (instead of being affected by the slope and lean of the blades of grass) I started to drop some long putts. In addition to Arizona National being both, a really nice golf course (that will beat you down and keep you on your knees if you let it), and that it sits in a location that truly amazing, the staff that works here is exceptional. The cart girl who brought us beverages in the desert heat was exceptionally pleasant and caring, as was the young man who took my food order when I stayed behind and grabbed a post-round lunch. He too was also super friendly and courteous...and patiently listened as I shared a couple boring golf stories. I also really enjoyed the interactions that I had with the starter, and the "customer support" guy who sets your clubs up in the cart, and the pro shop guy were all very enjoyable and made me feel welcomed and appreciated. I will close by sharing that I did have an off-putting experience (where the pro-shop guy was openly rude to me for no apparent reason). This was two years ago and I had vowed to avoid the course... and actually had not played there since. I am glad that my golf buddies invited me to play there last week as the experiences were really good--in every way that a round of golf could be.

Yesterday I had the House Salad, full of the usual vegetable suspects, a hardboiled egg, several slices of bacon, and a sliced chicken breast, hot off the grill and super tender. The default dressing is ranch but I love the chef's Caesar, so opted for that. I was almost able to finish the salad and it was delicious. The restaurant and golf course are semiprivate so open to the public. Wednesday and Friday nights are dinner specials and holidays have special menus. Thanksgiving was fabulous (no cooking or cleanup for me!) and a teaser was just put out for St. Patrick's Day.

3.5 stars This…read morereview is for the permanent disc golf course that is also located on this ball golf course. The address is somewhat misleading as the entrance is actually off of Rudasill. It will cost you $10 to play 18. You can rent a golf cart for $5 for up to 2 people riding. This course is great for long arms. There isn't a short basket on the whole course. Hence for me, who does not possess a long arm, 3.5 stars. It will take you longer to play than on a dedicated disc golf course if you do not rent a cart. There really are not many obstacles for long arm throwers. Yes, there are trees, but there are fairways, and this course is excellent for honing your fairway drives. There is a water hazard for two of the baskets and if your disc lands in the drink, you can go to the clubhouse, plunk down a deposit, and use the golden retriever (which is actually white, in this case). The club forbids anyone from going into the water, so please respect that. A plus is that there is grass. The website shows pictures of beautiful green grass, but it isn't quite that spectacular. And there still is some dirt around. There is a club house so you can buy drinks and snacks. There is a water fountain to fill up your H2O bottle. And there are clean restrooms. One of the rules that the local disc club has for this course is that all the greens are Out of Bounds (OB). I'm sure they have a good reason. I haven't researched it on the PDGA site, but maybe there is a universal rule for it. I think it is silly. That means that for just about every basket on this course, there is an OB, right by the basket. It's not like disc golfers are going to ruin the greens by walking on it or throwing from it. There are not going to be drives but putts made from a green. So I think it is a silly rule. They hold tournaments here, so the local disc-ers must like it. I'm sure that there are plenty of disc golfers that would give this 4 or even 5 stars. A couple of my friends would. I just don't like paying to play. I don't like getting behind ball golfers and having to wait as it takes them longer to play the hole than it does for us to play the basket. The ball golfers are respectful and friendly, don't get me wrong, I just don't like sharing a course with them. Even my long arm buddies don't get too many birdies on this course: I don't get any. There are a couple of baskets where it might be possible and I've come close, just missing my medium or long putt. My recommendation is to give it a try. Maybe you will like it way more than I enjoy it. If you are a disc golfer in Tucson, you have to try it at least once.

If you do play here, leave the putter at home and just bring irons and wedges as it's impossible to get a true roll on the bumpy greens.

They have turned their backs upon this place, thinking it vile and unplayable. "Refuse-ith", they sayi'th, "to walk in the shadows of mesquites that line this ground"... as they believe-ith it a place decay and dread unease. But I am here to testify, my bruthas and sisters that El Rio is a place of peaceful fairways, of joyful greens, of bountiful birdies. It is a hallowed land, free of sorrowful ball-marks and lowly divots. A place where a golfer with true-heart can be blessed and his spirit filled. Can I get an Aye-Maaaaan!!? For lo and behold... it has been said about El Rio, that the cart paths of the righteous man shall be beset on all sides by inequities of the lazy groundskeepers and tyranny of unkempt cart girls. But I'm here to tell you, there's something else. A world of never ending happiness. You can always see the flag pins...day... or night. And I shall strike thee down with furious vengeance and great anger, those that attempt to poison and destroy the reputation of my brothers and sisters who walk in righteousness upon these putting greens at El Rio. Blessed is he who swings a 7 iron through these valleys that were once thought dark and not well maintained. That is blasphemy. For he who chooses to play here is truly a low score keeper and the finder of lost golf balls. Amen. *Guess I better not quit my day job, as that was a terrible sermon upon the Yelp. But El Rio is actually a pretty good place to play. The staff there is so welcoming, the playing conditions are above par, (you knew there was gonna be a golf pun tossed in somewhere!), and I always sense a feeling of community and camaraderie when I choose to play here. May birdies be with you, my brethren.

We have scheduled another round next Tuesday with the purchase of a golf pass. The course was watered and the fairways were green. I would rate it a 6/10 for difficulty. At our age we are looking to enjoy golf not to competitively score our lowest scoring round. Many of the par 4's can be reached in regulation. We had a nice experience and that is why we are returning. The golf pass reduces the cost from $70+ to $55. That is a good savings. Plenty of parking. Nice inside restaurant to get a bite to eat or a drink. Water throughout the course. It is hot now in the afternoons in Tucson. Suggest a morning tee time. Enjoy your round.

Stunning views!!!…read more Beautiful clubhouse. Beautiful course. Nice restaurant/bar. Immaculate condition throughout the course and the surroundings. Nice practice/range. All staffs here (pro shop, starters , OSP) are all very friendly and professional. Each cart comes with two bottles of water. There are 3 nine holes; Palmer, Gambler and Pioneer. Our group's favorite courses are Palmer and Gambler. Palmer: this is not the typical easy pleasy resort course. It is super challenging / tough, a very target golf. Definitely not for beginners, but extremely satisfy after the round. Bathroom (Palmer): clean because it is literally a JW facility. But it requires a little walk through the pool area. Gambler: not as tough as Palmer but still quite challenging and fun. Bathroom (Gambler): I think it was portable. Sad since it is such a fancy facility. Pioneer: this is the friendliest 9 out of the three courses and appears to be the busiest too. Bathroom (Pioneer): don't remember. A 'must play' golf course in Tucson, especially the Palmer and Gambler. A must play golf course in Tucson, especially the Palmer and Gambler.

He worked with three of us in the clinic and even gave feedback to a few others practicing. The club loaned us clubs along with a golf cart as part of the resort fee. Another woman in the clinic kept saying how nice the clubs were- so I'm thinking they were pretty good. She even asked about getting a set. After the clinic, we headed to the clubhouse for lunch. We sat at the bar since the restaurant was pretty busy and the empty seats were in the sun. The bar tender was nice and provided menu suggestions. My colleague settled on the local hotdog (wrapped in bacon and with mustard, ketchup, mayo, and beans. - yep the beans were on the dog.) I followed the recommendation of the bar tender and ordered the chicken sandwich. It was DELICIOUS! There was a hot honey sauce that set the sandwich apart from any I've ever had. The chicken was nice and crispy, and yummy pickles! The food was so good and the prices were better than at the resort. It was so good I came back before I left the conference.
