If you are looking for a great experience in Southern Arizona, look no further than Canoa Ranch and Torres Blancas.  Conveniently located in Green Valley, approximately 30 minutes south of Tucson International Airport, these two full length championship layouts have some of the finest views along the I-19 corridor.

The designers of Canoa Ranch have done a masterful job of routing the course so that the views of the Santa Rita Mountains and Elephant Head Rock are in sight on almost every hole.  The design of Torres Blancas uses the Santa Cruz River Valley as the natural back drop for the golf course.  The tree lined fairways give you hints and peeks of one of the largest pecan groves in North America, right across the river.

Canoa Ranch and Torres Blancas offer two ideal locations for your golf learning experience.  Refine your game with one of the golf instruction packages offered.
