Dobson Ranch Golf Course

Grass is looking good and pace will be much better when its off cart path. Got really windy, cold and rainy, was told if it was bad we could get rain check on the back nine but club house wouldn't do it because we book on golf now which was a bummer but it is what it is.

Excellent city course….very well run and a decent value

Dobson doesn't suit my eye generally but as I have aged it has gradually grown on me. I have played the course every year since the late 90s and it was in the best shape I have seen it in. Still a few rough edges and a populace which refuses to repair its damage while playing, but in real good shape. All shop and outside service personnel were wonderful and the pace was 4:40 which was good for cart path only. .Cart girl was lovely and attentive. Reopen the halfway house on #11/15,16 and a bit more sand on the beach and it's a 5. Up to a 4.5. for a former detractor.

I have played here almost 10 times over the past 20 years, and witnessed the improvements in the club amenities. It's a fun place to play with friends. It's fairly easy course, but you need to dodge some driving range balls in a couple of holes.

Course was still Cart Path Only (CPO), thus many walkers which optimized time- to-ball, though cart riders frequently consumed more time (round was 4:40). Tee boxes were fair, as were fairways, but clean-and-place was routinely required. Greens were still a little slow, but give it another two weeks and that will improve. Value was good. Remember to bring a colored ball for Holes 9 and 10, which border the driving range, which litters white range balls on those holes. Sand traps were damp and firm, complicating, at times, a good shot out of the hazard. Rangers were cordial, but with CPO conditions, not much was possible for them to improve pace-of-play.

Dobson Ranch is a nice wide open course. It is in pretty good early fall condition. Wide fairways but still hard to hit for some of us! Greens in good condition but a bit slow but they will speed up. This is a very walkable course. Speed of play was not good. People on carts that we could see constantly hit there ball at least 100 yds away from the cart path. They may as well have walked. This really slowed down the pace. But I know it should be better once the cart path only rule is off. Overall a nice course. Golf shop staff, starter and player assistant very friendly. Lots of range balls on 10th fairway. Wouldn’t hurt to have someone pick those up once or twice a day. Use a coloured ball on 10! Reasonable green fee for early fall

Course was cart path only due to over seeding but in great shape. Would play again. Hope rates don’t skyrocket.

Course was in great shape. Play was a little slow due to cart path only rules.

Really enjoyed my first round there. Great staff and very friendly.

The course was in okay condition considering the time of year. The driving range is excellent with lots of targets and monitors, would be good to come back just to practice. The downside is the 10th hole runs parallel to the range, no fence to protect you on the 10th fairway and the fairway is littered with dozens of range balls, makes it nearly impossible to find your ball when it lands amongst the range ones. Considering liability issues you would think a fence would be mandatory on an adjacent fairway at the very least.

Dobson Ranch never disappoints. My wife and I played his course at least once a week and visit the driving range often. The course is always well kept and the staff there is amazing. We will continue to visit this golf course while we live in Arizona. Thank you so much.

Grass came in really well after overseed. Staff here is always awesome too

Golfed here a few times and bought their pass. Amazing course and Amazing staff. Shout out to Mark for helping me set up my inrange account today at the range he was a big help and a very nice guy!

It’s been many years since I played Dobson… But it’s a great track! It’ll be even better when the greens are not as hairy and slow.

Only one weird thing… Trying to get off the Teebox on hole #9 a staff member from the Grill drove towards us, not yielding to our tee shots. It was a bit odd and she asked us if we wanted to order anything from the grill… We replied no we just want to hit our tee shots.

Course overall was good, Was just over seeded, whish they would have added that info to their website or when booking the appointment that it was car path only prior, or wouldn't have tried it. Poor scheduling, had 3 groups held up because someone put walking people in front of 3 groups with carts which is dumb. Then only tell us cart path only when about to tee off. Tee time was held back 8 mins and everyone got held up because a group of older men walking wouldn't hurry up. Player assistant was a joke, did not do anything to help pace of play and when we tried to jump players to try to finish the course before dark (at hole 12 at 6:30PM and precedded to tell us how awful we are, how "real golfers" dont do this and how we at Dobson ranch don't act like this. Long story short, paid money and was not able to finish a full 18 due to lack of planning or accountability on the golf course staff. Recommend to find somewhere else.
