About Arizona National Golf Club
Arizona National Golf Club is a public golf facility in Tucson, offering an 18 hole championship course designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr. The club is located in the foothills of the Santa Catalina Mountains, beside the Coronado National Forest. Its course follows the natural shape of the desert landscape, with mesquite lined arroyos, rocky outcroppings, giant saguaros, mountain views, and nine natural springs. GPS equipped carts are available, adding technology to a setting shaped by the rugged terrain of southern Arizona.
The course covers 6,785 yards and is designed to present the kinds of decisions associated with desert golf. Changes in the land, arroyos, rock formations, and surrounding vegetation all contribute to the experience. Arizona National describes the layout as challenging while also emphasizing the enjoyment of playing through the landscape. Panoramic views of the mountains and the combination of desert scenery, shaded areas, and natural water features give the course a setting that is distinct from a standard flat golf layout.
Golfers can book tee times through the club, and the facility also offers a mobile app with app only discounts, tee time booking, rewards, and score tracking. The club promotes direct online booking and provides an online store with merchandise and gift cards. For golfers working on their game, Arizona National offers instruction from certified PGA and LPGA instructors. The club also provides options for people who are new to golf, along with membership opportunities and organized golf groups such as the AZN Women's Golf Association and Spark Golf.
Arizona National Golf Club's offerings extend beyond regular rounds. The property hosts outings and tournaments, as well as weddings, banquets, parties, and other private events. The club says catered meals and onsite event coordinators are available for these gatherings. Its event spaces place corporate functions and celebrations within the desert landscape, giving organizers a way to combine a hosted gathering with the setting of a Tucson golf course. The Grill is another part of the facility, although the source material does not provide further details about its menu or dining format.
The club's website presents Arizona National as a Tucson public golf course recognized in its own materials as a favorite and as the city's best public golf course. Those descriptions are part of the club's promotional language, while the course's location, design, natural features, and public access establish its practical identity. Visitors can explore the layout through a virtual tour, arrange a round or event online, and use the mobile app for course related tools. Arizona National also provides a calendar of events, careers information, surveys, and a request donation option. The facility is in Tucson and serves golfers seeking a desert course, instruction, organized play, or a venue for a private gathering.
